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.

You have 14 days to pay the import costs (VAT, import duties or any other customs fees and formalities). Most shipments are cleared within a week.

I just missed my parcel. Can the postman pass by again today?
FAQ
Residential
No, regrettably that is not possible. For logistical reasons, our postmen cannot pass by your home once again.
, I have not yet set any delivery preferences
, If you haven’t yet set your delivery preferences, we will generally try to leave your parcel at a neighbour or in a safe place by your home. If we cannot do this, we’ll let you know where you can pick up your parcel: Digitally in the My bpost app or in Track & Trace, if we know your email address. By means of a failed delivery notice if we cannot reach you digitally. In this case, your parcel will not be available immediately. You or someone else can collect your parcel from the Pick-up point within 14 calendar days.

The original sender of your parcel determines whether you must be able to present a proof of shipment to get the money from your purchase back. The barcode on the label is scanned in the Post Office or Post Point to send the parcel, or the postman taking your parcel scans the label for shipment. The original sender sees when the parcel is scanned in our Track & Trace tool. You can always take a screenshot of the Track & Trace tool or the My bpost app and e-mail it as proof. If you purchase a shipping label in a Post Office or Post Point, then you can request a Shipping Receipt and mail a copy to the original sender. You can request a confirmation of receipt via text message or e-mail either online or in your Post Office or Post Point with the 'confirmation of receipt' option. As soon as your return shipment is delivered or picked up at a Pick-up point, you will receive an e-mail or text message. If none of this is sufficient for the sender as proof, please contact our customer service.
I get a message that my parcel has been delivered, but I haven't received anything. What now?
FAQ
Residential
A couple of tips if you have not received anything: Check if someone else (your neighbour or flatmate) has received your parcel. If it is a small parcel, the postman may have delivered it to your letterbox without ringing the doorbell. Your parcel may also have been delivered according to your delivery preferences (directly to a Pick-up point, to your safe location or to your neighbour). If it is left in a safe place by your home, you can view the photo of that safe place in the My bpost app or Track & Trace . Also make sure that you have not received a failed delivery notice from the postman in your letterbox. It will tell you where your parcel has gone to. Keep in mind that you only receive this notice if we cannot reach you digitally.
, If you are the receiver
, and you still cannot find your parcel, please contact the sender for a solution. He is the only one who can start an investigation at bpost and make sure that you still receive your parcel.
, If you are the sender
, , please contact our customer service. This is best done using our online form . This way you can immediately provide us with all the necessary information and documents to handle your ticket.

If you are not home, a failed delivery notice will be left in your letterbox. It contains all the information about your registered mail that we have received from the sender. You can also find this information via Track & Trace. For registered mail, we generally do not receive digital information from the sender. If there is no sender on Track & Trace or on your failed delivery notice, customer care cannot give you any extra information either.
