Your package has been released by the government agency

UPS tracking parcel

What this status means

UPS has recorded that a government agency, usually customs, has finished checking your package and let it go. The parcel is still in the import country, normally at a UPS facility near the point of entry. The inspection or paperwork review is over and the package is no longer held by the authorities.

Is my package delayed?

No. This message by itself is normal and is a good sign. It marks the end of customs clearance. Any delay would have shown up in earlier steps, not here.

What happens next

The next scan is almost always "On the Way, Import Scan". It means UPS has formally received the package into its domestic network in the destination country. After that, the parcel is sorted and sent on toward your local delivery facility.

What you can do

  • Wait and keep checking your tracking history for the import scan.
  • If the package has been stuck on this message for longer than the previous steps took, contact UPS.
  • Have your tracking number and order details ready when you call or write.
  • If duties or taxes were requested, check whether they are paid. Ask the seller if you are unsure who is responsible for them.
