What this status means
Cyprus Post has sent your parcel on from the place where it was handed in or first processed to another domestic location. "Otb" stands for outbound, meaning the parcel is leaving Cyprus. The parcel is moving between Cypriot postal facilities on its way to the office that hands international mail to other countries. It usually follows "Receive item from customer (Otb)", when the parcel was first accepted.
Is my package delayed?
No. By itself this message is a normal step in the outbound journey and not an exception. It does not point to a problem with the parcel, the address or customs.
What happens next
Most often, in about nine cases out of ten, the next scan is "Receive item at office of exchange (Otb)". This is the office where Cyprus Post prepares international mail and passes it to the carrier for the destination country. Other possible scans, each rare, are bagging the item for export or a scan at an international processing centre. After that, the parcel leaves Cyprus and the tracking updates come from the destination country's postal service.
What you can do
- Wait and check the tracking again later. Updates often pause while the parcel is in transport between facilities.
- If the status does not change for longer than the previous steps took, contact Cyprus Post or the seller.
- Have your tracking number, the order details and the date of dispatch ready when you ask.
- If you are the sender, keep your posting receipt until the parcel is delivered.
