Tracking Statuses


Below are the main statuses you may encounter during the journey of a shipment, from the moment the order is received until final delivery.

Classification of states

The states are divided into 3 groups:

SUCCESS : In the context of tracking a shipment, the "Success" status group (or "Success Statuses" ) generally refers to all those steps that indicate a positive and regular progress of the shipment . In practice, they are the updates that signal that everything is proceeding according to plan.

WARNING ; the "Warning" status group in shipment tracking refers to all those messages that indicate an anomaly, a problem or a deviation from the normal logistics flow , but which do not yet equate to a definitive failure of delivery. These statuses serve as an alert signal and often require attention or intervention.

DANGER : The "Danger" status group in shipment tracking refers to critical or irreversible situations that indicate that the shipment has been compromised, canceled, or can no longer be completed successfully . These are the most serious statuses, often associated with a definitive closure of the logistics process. These statuses require significant corrective actions (such as reshipment, refund, or return management) and often involve timely communication to the customer to explain what happened.
