What is the tracking number – Magyar Posta?
Before we get to the actual numbers, we would like to explain to all the customers what they need to look for.
The tracking number you possess is the most important information you own when it comes to parcel tracking.
*A tracking number is a specific number assigned to each parcel just before being shipped. This number works as a unique ID code and allows people to follow and track their package till it reaches its destination.
Every parcel that ever leaves Hungary to travel to another country or even part of the world is assigned a tracking number.
With this unique combination of letters and numbers, you can easily find out where the parcel is while in different hubs in various cities and when it will depart to reach the destination.
Giving each parcel its separate number helps to identify it in the best way possible. Magyar Posta tracking numbers are meant to help you follow the order through from the departure point to the destination point without any second-guessing or doubts.
You enter the Track and Trace section, introduce the special combination you have, and have the information displayed to you. This is what an electronic post-global system helps customers do.

Track and Trace System in Hungary
The tracking system in Hungary is similar to tracking systems in the rest of Europe. This means that the principles are the same.
European postal and logistics companies are well-developed and their professionalism is doubtless. The system is electronic and perfectly processed and monitored by specialists in the domain.
Alltracking always uses information technology for our post and freight tracking systems. That is why the parcels that Magyar Posta sends and delivers are easily monitored by us within the global e-system we have access to.
Track and Trace system is available for you to access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and Alltracking generously provides the accumulated data from their server database for your convenience. This allows you to witness progress from any part of the world at any time.
Sometimes it can happen that the package cannot be tracked and renewing the page, or entering your tracking number for the fifth time in a row does not help.
This can be the result of existing problems and we have to understand what happened.
From a insigificant delay to the parcel being lost - we have to exclude each variant step by step.
There can be numerous reasons for non-trackage of the parcel you need information for.
But before any panic starts, customers are adviced to consider it being stuck in transit. This means that the status of the package has not moved in a long time and there is no news that the tracking website can share.
After any significant changes take place, the status of the parcel will be updated accordingly. But if you do not see it straight away, do not consider the package lost – it can just be temporarily delayed.
As the company is super professional and operates for multiples years we have to inform you that these cases are rare. But still 100% of cases cannot be successful. It can happen so that the parcel never arrived to Hungary.
There can be a few reasons for it. Sometimes the parcel can get lost on the way to the final destination. These cases are practically a part of an exception but people stil need to be informed.
In case this happens think to contact the respresentatives of Magyar Posta team for further assistance.
The investigation will need to take place and the company will take the resposibility offering you a solution. It is the duty of Magyar Posta to give you answers and inform you all the details.
The complains, appraisals, suggestions, track number information requests and so on can be submitted.
No panic if the package is still missing – either it will be found or you will get a refund. In both cases you have to wait first and then to follow the instructions given by the Customer Support team.
Do not hesitate to contact them.
The complaints from the customers have fallen into several categories.
1) Tracked packages that did not reach the destinatio
The situations may differ from one case to another. At times the fault belongs to the company. Sometimes the customer is to blame.
If you printed the wrong address on the shipping label, didn't include a return address, or poorly packaged the item, Magyar Posta cannot be held responsible for it. In most of the other cases, Magyar Posta will investigate the case and refund you.
2) Damaged tracked parcels
If the item arrives damaged, the first thing you need to do is get in contact with the seller as soon as possible. (this is for those who purchased an item online that was later on sent with Magyar Posta).
The seller will discuss the issue with the Hungarian postal company. In this case, the seller is responsible for the condition of the items when you receive them.
If the item is damaged you can enclose pictures, and put it all in writing, ideally in an email that you need to send to the seller. The seller then will investigate what happened and offer you a practical solution.
3) Confiscated tracked items
Magyar Posta packages can still be delayed for reasons beyond its control. For example: if the package is about to get to Hungary from overseas, the customs are usually strict and check the parcels for unwanted prohibited goods.
There are some restrictions that the customer has to know of. If the package contains products that cannot enter the destination country – the access will be denied.
Particular products or groups of goods can be denied access - explosives, counterfeit goods, valuable antiques, things of an immoral nature, etc.
