UPS

The delivery address has been updated and your package is on its way

UPS tracking parcel

What this status means

UPS has corrected or changed the delivery address on your package, and the parcel is moving again toward the new address. It is somewhere inside the UPS network, usually at or between sorting facilities. This message often appears after UPS had a problem with the address or the receiver's name, or after a delivery attempt failed.

Is my package delayed?

This message by itself is not a problem, but it usually means something went wrong earlier, so the package may be running behind. The step that follows is sometimes a notice that the package was sorted incorrectly, which can add delay. Treat it as a mild exception rather than a normal, uneventful step.

What happens next

  • Most often, UPS reports a sorting problem, such as a package sent to the wrong place, and reroutes it.
  • Otherwise the parcel shows normal facility scans: processing, then departed from the facility.
  • Less often, UPS cannot resolve an incomplete address and the package is returned to the sender.

What you can do

  • Wait and keep checking the tracking history for new scans.
  • Check that the address and the name on the order are correct and complete.
  • If the package stays unchanged for longer than the previous steps, or a return notice appears, contact the seller first. Have your tracking number and order details ready.
  • If the seller cannot help, contact UPS with the same details.
