About SDA
SDA is the public-facing brand of SDA Express Courier S.p.A., an operational company in the Poste Italiane Group. SDA supports Poste Group logistics processes and continues to operate dedicated banking-courier, extranetwork, 2ruotExpress and pharma express activities. Express-courier commercial and assistance functions have moved to Poste Italiane, so current shipment actions should be handled through the applicable Poste Italiane service entry.

Carrier Entity Relationships
| Entity | Relationship summary |
|---|---|

| Poste Italiane Group | Poste Italiane Group owns SDA and provides the current commercial and assistance path for former SDA express-courier services. |

Quick Answer
Enter the shipment tracking number supplied by the sender or marketplace into the current Poste Italiane tracking route, or use 17TRACK to check available SDA-related events. If no result appears, verify that you entered a parcel number rather than an order number, remove spaces or punctuation, and ask the sender whether the label has been physically handed over. 17TRACK is independent of SDA and cannot change an address, issue a refund or approve a claim.
How to Track SDA Packages
- Copy the parcel identifier from the dispatch email, seller account, receipt or shipping label.
- Use the relevant Poste Italiane tracking service for former SDA express-courier shipments.
- Alternatively, submit the identifier to 17TRACK for cross-carrier event aggregation.
- Compare the latest scan, event location and responsible carrier before contacting support.
An order ID, merchant reference and delivery notice are not necessarily tracking numbers. A newly created label may have no physical acceptance scan; the sender must resolve an incorrect, duplicated or never-activated identifier.
Tracking Number Formats and Examples
SDA-related identifiers should be validated through the official Poste Italiane route or 17TRACK rather than identified by prefix alone. The supplied official pages do not publish a complete current public format catalogue.
Tracking Number Format
| Identifier family | Normalized pattern and use | ||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SDA or Poste shipment identifier | Use the exact alphanumeric or numeric identifier shown by the sender; a complete public pattern is not stated on the supplied official pages. | ||||||||

Tracking Statuses and Meanings
| Status | Lifecycle meaning |
|---|---|
| Label created | Shipment data exists, but physical handover may not have occurred. |
| Accepted or picked up | The responsible operating network has recorded receipt. |
| In transit | The parcel is moving between processing or delivery points. |
| Out for delivery | A delivery route has been assigned; address or access problems can still prevent delivery. |
| Delivered | A delivery scan was recorded; check the location and proof of delivery if the parcel is missing. |
| Exception or return | An obstacle or failed delivery requires the sender, recipient or current operator to act. |
Services and Delivery Times
Current official information identifies SDA as an operational company and directs former SDA express-courier commercial and assistance functions to Poste Italiane. The supplied SDA pages do not publish a current universal delivery-time promise.
Service Comparison
| Service area | Current handling route |
|---|---|
| Former SDA express courier | Commercial and assistance functions are available through Poste Italiane. |
| Dedicated banking courier | SDA continues to operate this dedicated activity within the Poste Italiane Group. |
| Extranetwork, 2ruotExpress and pharma express | SDA identifies these as continuing operational activities. |
Delivery Time
| Shipment context | Published standard |
|---|---|
| Current SDA-related shipment | Use the service-specific Poste Italiane information and the shipment’s tracking events; no universal time promise appears in the supplied SDA evidence. |
Destination Country Delivery Times
| Destination | Applicable guidance |
|---|---|
| Italy and international destinations | Do not apply a generic SDA delivery range. Confirm the current Poste Italiane product, origin, destination, customs requirements and latest scan. |
Common Tracking Problems and Solutions
| Problem/status shown | First action |
|---|---|
| Invalid number | Check the characters, remove spaces, and ask the sender to distinguish the tracking number from the order ID. |
| No events or label created | Ask the sender whether the parcel was handed to the operator; the seller, not 17TRACK, controls dispatch evidence. |
| No update in transit | Compare the last scan location and contact the current operator or sender when the shipment is materially overdue. |
| Delivered but missing | Check the entrance, safe place, household members, reception desk and neighbours, then request proof of delivery and contact the sender. |
| Address error, failed delivery or return | Use the current Poste Italiane assistance route promptly; only the eligible sender or recipient may request an available delivery action. |
| Damage or loss | Preserve packaging and photographs and ask the sender to initiate the applicable investigation or claim. |
International Shipping, Customs and Carrier Handoffs
The supplied current SDA notice redirects international express-courier commercial information to Poste Italiane. An international scan may therefore involve an origin operator, customs and a destination operator; a destination-country scan does not by itself prove customs release.
| Stage | Tracking interpretation |
|---|---|
| Origin acceptance | The origin operator records possession; electronic pre-advice alone is not physical handover. |
| Export and line-haul | Security, export processing and transport can create scan gaps. |
| Import customs | Customs may request information or payment; arrival at an exchange facility is not release. |
| Destination handoff | The destination postal or courier operator may continue the original identifier or assign a linked local identifier. |
| Last mile | The operator showing the latest physical scan is normally the best first contact for delivery questions. |
Customer Service
| Channel | Verified route |
|---|---|
| Former express-courier assistance | Poste Italiane; the SDA notice directs private and business customers there. |
| SDA corporate contact | Telephone 06.665921 and email infosda@SDA.it are published on the SDA company page for corporate information. |
| Commercial enquiry | SDA commercial contact page provides a service-selection route. |
Prepare the tracking number, sender and recipient addresses, dispatch date, service type, latest scan, package description, value evidence and photographs. For a purchase dispute, contact the seller as well as the delivery operator.
Ecommerce and Business Tracking
Businesses should distinguish the consumer tracking page, any current Poste Italiane or SDA business integration, and a multi-carrier platform. Standardized events can support order-status pages and exception workflows, but neither SDA nor 17TRACK should be represented as providing a delivery guarantee unless the applicable contract says so.
