Label correction applied

Canada Post tracking parcel

What this status means

"Label correction applied" means Canada Post changed the shipping label on your parcel. This usually happens at a sorting facility, where the parcel is physically being handled. The label may have been damaged or hard to scan, or the address or routing details may have needed fixing. Staff or a machine then added a corrected label so the parcel can be sorted properly.

Is my package delayed?

This message by itself is not a sign of a problem. It is a minor exception, a small fix made during normal processing. It sits between two "Item processed" scans, so the parcel was still moving through the network before and after the correction. A delay is possible if the fix held the parcel up, but this message does not confirm one.

What happens next

The next scan is almost always another "Item processed", which means the parcel has been sorted again with its corrected label. After that it should continue to the next facility and then toward delivery, as with any ordinary parcel.

What you can do

  • Wait and keep checking the tracking history for new scans.
  • Check that the delivery address on your order is complete and correct.
  • If there are no new scans for longer than the previous steps took, contact Canada Post with your tracking number.
  • If the address on the order was wrong, contact the seller and have your order details ready.
