Ship24 has a universal tracking system where it can track 1,200 couriers globally and gives you the latest details and updates you need to know about your Cianiao packages, including shipping methods such as Cainiao Super Economy for Special Goods and Cainiao Standard for Special Goods.

How do I find my Cainiao tracking number?

Finding your Cainiao tracking number is simple. Cainiao tracking numbers are a combination of letters and numbers and usually consist of 10 to 20 digits. This can be found on the shipping label, the receipt, or on the parcel itself.

If you are the one receiving the parcel, you can ask the sender to send you the tracking number or you can check your email address to check for the Cainiao tracking number.

What will my Cainiao parcel tracking number look like?

Cainiao parcel tracking numbers are rarely the same because they could be handled by so many different couriers. However, you don't need to be an expert in identifying which tracking number corresponds with which courier, as Ship24's tracking system does that for you.

Ship24 universal tracking has an in-built auto-detection functionality that automatically detects the courier from the tracking number you enter. This way, if it is a Cainiao tracking number or if Cainiao uses Yanwen to handle the package and it is a Yanwen tracking number, it doesn't matter, Ship24 will still be able to provide the relevant information for your parcel. This works for other couriers too, like USPS.

However, in general, tracking numbers usually consist of around 10 to 20 numbers and letters, such as "LPxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"(with the x's representing a random sequence of numbers such as LP4936748399533).

Yanwen tracking numbers typically start with the letters L and P, followed by a sequence of 14 digits. (The letters will always be in capitals). Again, you do not need to know the courier who is handling your parcel in order to track the parcel.

About Cainiao Logistics

Part of Cainiao's success, along with its backing by eCommerce giant Alibaba, was its working partnerships and collaborations with China's top 14 delivery firms, such as YTO Express, Yunda, Shentong Express, and ZTO Express, among others. This meant it could immediately extend its parcel forwarding reach and delivery times both within China and worldwide.

Today, Cainiao is one of the largest logistics solutions companies in China. Achieving unicorn status as of 2018, the company has gone from strength to strength and those opting for premium delivery on major e-commerce shops and marketplaces such as Alibaba will likely be shipping with Cainiao or one of their partners.

Internationally, Cainiao also collaborates with couriers overseas, including UPS and FedEx, among many others. This is why it is best to think of Cainiao as a "forwarding company", which will handle your parcel at a certain point in its journey before being passed on to another private courier or logistics company.

However, when it leaves China and reaches Europe or America, it could be handed over to any number of couriers in order to complete what is known as the last mile of its journey (from the local distribution centre to the final address). When this is the case, Cianiao shipment tracking may not have the latest details available on your parcel, right when you need it most, such as if it is out for delivery.
