Arrival at Transit Office From Exchange

USPS tracking parcel

What this status means

This is an international mail scan. The parcel has reached a USPS transit office after coming through an international exchange office, the facility where mail from another country is received, checked and handed over between postal operators. The parcel is inside the postal network, usually near the point of entry, and has not yet been sent on to a local delivery unit.

Is my package delayed?

This message by itself is normal. It is a routine step for parcels sent from abroad and does not point to a problem. If the parcel stays on this scan for longer than the previous steps took, that is worth watching, but the scan alone does not mean something went wrong.

What happens next

The parcel is usually sorted and sent on within the USPS network toward the region of your address. Later scans normally show it leaving the facility, arriving at a regional or local sorting center, and then reaching the delivery post office before it goes out for delivery.

What you can do

  • Wait and keep checking the tracking history for a new scan.
  • If nothing changes for longer than usual, contact USPS with your tracking number.
  • If still unresolved, contact the seller and give them the tracking number and your order details.
  • Check that the delivery address on the order is correct, and be aware that customs duties or fees may apply to international parcels.
