How to track your AliExpress order
Cainiao, China Post and local carriers — here's how to follow an AliExpress order from China to your door.
Where the number is
In the app or site: Orders → select the order → Track order. Look for an LP/LZ code, an S10 code (…CN) or a carrier number once it reaches your country. The AliExpress order ID itself is not trackable.
Who moves it
Cainiao, China Post, Yanwen, SunYou or 4PX consolidate the parcel in China; your local operator does the last mile (Correos, USPS, CTT, Poste Italiane…). The handoff is where tracking 'goes dark' for days.
Protection & disputes
AliExpress shows a protection countdown on every order. If the parcel is late or stuck, open the dispute before it runs out — with no movement for 20+ days you can claim earlier.
Frequently asked questions
Is the AliExpress order number a tracking number?
No — the order ID identifies the purchase. Only the carrier tracking number (LP…, LZ…, S10…) moves through the network.
Why did my tracking number change?
When your local carrier takes over, it assigns its own number for the final delivery — follow the new one.
How long do I have to open a dispute?
Until Buyer Protection expires — check the countdown on the order. Don't wait it out: disputes opened too late are harder to win.
