My secure delivery code was not accepted. What should I do?
FAQ
Residential
If your code isn’t accepted, you may have mixed it up with another parcel you are expecting. In that case, the other parcel should have been left at a pick-up point close to you. Your parcel will also be dropped off at a pick-up point if there’s a technical issue at the time of delivery. Check your email, Track & Trace and the My bpost app to know where it’s been taken. If you’re sure the code was right, contact our customer service to sort it out.
What is a secure delivery?
FAQ
Residential
A secure delivery ensures that only you, or someone you designate, is able to receive your parcel. Your parcel will only be handed over if your personal secure delivery code is shown. You receive this code by email and it is also displayed in the My bpost app. You show it to the person who delivers your parcel or the person at the Pick-up point. The shipper, such as a webshop, selects a secure delivery if it needs to be sure that the right person takes receipt of the parcel. Unfortunately, due to the extra security requirements, we cannot always comply with your delivery preferences.
Business customers with a bpost contract can ship parcels to pick-up points in Belgium, as well as these foreign countries: France: delivery to Points relais® (pick-up points) or Lockers of our partner Mondial Relay Luxembourg: delivery to PackUp Points (pick-up points) and PackUp 24/24 (parcel lockers) of our partner Post LU. The Netherlands: delivery to ServicePoints (pick-up points and parcel lockers) of our partner DHL. For these international deliveries, our partners will ensure that they inform and offer the appropriate tracking options to your receivers.
