What this status means
"Print sorting" is a Posti Finland checkpoint, and it means your parcel is being handled in Posti's sorting process. The parcel is inside a Posti sorting facility, where it is scanned and directed toward the right delivery route. The status is classed as "package information received", so it is an early or routine handling step, not a delivery attempt.
Is my package delayed?
No, this message by itself is normal. It often appears more than once in a row: the most common next message is "Print sorting" again, in about two thirds of cases. A repeated line usually means another scan at the same stage, not a problem. If the same line stays unchanged for longer than the previous steps took, it is worth checking.
What happens next
Most often you will see "Print sorting" once more. After that, the usual next step is "Item is in delivery transportation", which means the parcel has left the sorting stage and is on its way to delivery. Less often, you may see a local sorting centre or delivery depot message before delivery.
What you can do
- Wait and keep checking. Repeated scans are normal.
- If the tracking history does not change for longer than usual, contact Posti and give them your tracking number.
- If you ordered from a shop or marketplace, ask the seller to check the shipment. Have your order details ready.
- Check that your delivery address and phone number are correct in the order.
