Arrived At Abudhabi Sorting Center

What this status means

Emirates Post has scanned your parcel as it arrived at its sorting center in Abu Dhabi. This is a mid-journey stop. The parcel is inside a processing facility, where it is sorted by destination and placed on the next vehicle or flight. It has not been delivered yet, and it has not necessarily reached the final delivery area.

Is my package delayed?

On its own, this message is normal. It is a routine scan that parcels pass through on their way to the recipient, and it does not point to a problem. It only becomes worth a closer look if the tracking history stops here for longer than the previous steps took.

What happens next

After sorting, the parcel is usually scanned again as it leaves the center. Depending on the destination, it then goes to another Emirates Post facility, to a local delivery office, or to export and customs handling if it is leaving the country. A later message such as an out-for-delivery scan, or a handover to a partner carrier, shows that it has moved on.

What you can do

• Wait and keep checking the tracking history. A new scan will appear once the parcel leaves the center.
• If nothing changes for longer than usual, contact Emirates Post and give them your tracking number.
• If the parcel was a purchase, you can also ask the seller to open an inquiry. Have your order details ready.
• Make sure the delivery address and phone number on the order are correct.
