About Correos
Correos is the national postal operator of Spain, delivering letters, registered mail, parcels and international items to every Spanish address. Its parcel range - the Paq services - sits alongside letters and registered post, making Correos one of the most common ways goods reach Spanish offices, campuses and homes.
Correos is also a mainstay of cross-border e-commerce, both sending items abroad and receiving international parcels into Spain. Only tracked and registered items carry a full scan history; ordinary untracked letters have nothing to look up.
Correos tracking number formats
International Correos items usually follow the S10 UPU format: two letters, nine digits, then ES - for example RR123456789ES. Common prefixes include RR, CP and LE. Domestic Paq parcels instead use a longer numeric code with no ES suffix. You will find the number on your Correos receipt or the sender's dispatch email.
Correos tracking statuses explained
- Accepted (Admitido)Correos has taken the item at a post office or from the sender; it has entered the network.
- In transit (En tránsito)The parcel is moving between Correos sorting centres and delivery offices. Expect quiet gaps between scans.
- Out for delivery (En reparto)The item is with a carrier on the delivery round and should arrive that day.
- Delivered (Entregado)Handed over at the address. For businesses this means reception or the mailroom received it - not yet the named recipient.
- Awaiting collection (En oficina)Held at a local Correos office after a missed delivery. Bring ID and the tracking number within the retention period.
- Customs (Aduanas)An international item is being checked by customs on arrival in Spain. Duties or documents may be required before release.
Correos tracking FAQs
How do I track a Correos parcel?
Enter your Correos tracking number into the tracker above. You'll see each event from acceptance (Admitido) through transit to delivery (Entregado). International items use a code ending in ES; domestic Paq items use a longer numeric code.
What does a Correos tracking number look like?
International items usually follow the S10 UPU format: two letters, nine digits, then ES - for example RR123456789ES. Common prefixes include RR, CP and LE. Domestic Paq parcels use a longer numeric code with no ES suffix.
Why is my Correos parcel held at an office?
If delivery isn't possible, Correos holds the item for collection at a local office (Oficina de Correos) - shown as “En oficina”. Bring ID and the tracking number, and collect within the retention period before it's returned to sender.
Why is my international Correos parcel in customs?
Cross-border parcels are checked by customs (Aduanas) on arrival in Spain. Tracking can pause while duties or paperwork are processed; you may need to pay charges or provide documents before delivery.
Can Traizr track Correos deliveries into my building?
Yes. Traizr tracks parcels once they reach your building: staff scan each Correos item in, the recipient is notified automatically, and a signature is captured on collection - a complete chain of custody from courier to recipient.
Common Correos tracking problems
Held for collection at an office
“En oficina” means the parcel is waiting at a local Oficina de Correos. Take ID and the tracking number and collect within the retention window before it's returned.
Stuck in customs
International items pause at Aduanas while duties and documents are processed. Watch for a request to pay charges or supply paperwork before Correos can release the parcel.
Tracking only in Spanish
The Correos site shows events in Spanish. The status names above pair each Spanish term with its English meaning so you can read your parcel's progress.
Delivery attempted, notice left
A failed attempt usually leaves a notice and moves the item to a Correos office. At a business, check reception first - this is the internal gap Traizr closes.
What happens after “Delivered”?
For a home address, delivery is the end of the story. For an office, university, hospital or apartment building, it's only halfway: the parcel has reached the door, but it still has to travel from reception to the person it's actually for. That internal leg is invisible to Correos - and it's where parcels most often go missing.
Traizr picks up exactly where the Correos scan ends, giving your building the same visibility for the internal journey that Correos gives for the external one.
