International Mail Service Suspensions (other than GXG®)
Updated: April 16, 2021
To track your EMS item, please enter your 13 digit item number (e.g. EZ987654321XX) which is given to each EMS item. If you do not know the EMS item number, you can obtain this from the sender. Say you're making a big purchase online and are given 2 shipping methods: Ems and Registered Airmail (the regular one). EMS is faster but it has much more chances of being retained by customs and charging taxes. RA is less likely to go through that, but it takes 1-2 weeks longer. What method do you go for?
