Quick Answer

Enter the shipment or tracking number from the postal receipt, shipping label or merchant dispatch message on the official Bulgarian Post website, or enter it in 17TRACK. If no result appears, first check the characters, remove spaces or punctuation, confirm that the label has been physically accepted, and ask the sender which carrier issued the number.

Pro Tip: 17TRACK is an independent tracking platform. It cannot transport a parcel, change an address, approve a refund or decide a Bulgarian Post claim.

How to Track Bulgarian Post Packages

RouteSteps
Official Bulgarian Post searchOpen the official website, choose shipment search, enter the tracking number, and review the available events.
17TRACK searchOpen 17TRACK, enter the number, allow carrier identification or select Bulgarian Post when offered, and compare the event history.
No number or no resultAsk the sender or marketplace for the shipment number. An order number, invoice number, reference number or delivery notice number may not be a postal tracking number.
Number not activatedA created label or electronic pre-advice does not prove physical acceptance. Wait for an acceptance scan or ask the sender to confirm handover.

Tracking Number Formats and Examples

Bulgarian Post shipment identifiers depend on the postal product and origin. International postal items commonly use the UPU S10 structure, while a merchant reference or order number may not be trackable. Do not infer the exact service from a prefix alone.

Tracking Number Format

Identifier familyNormalized pattern
International postal S10 identifierAA ######### BB, with two letters, nine digits and a two-letter country code; example: EE 123456789 BG.
EMS international itemOften uses an international postal identifier associated with EMS; example: EE ####### ## BG. The exact service must be verified in tracking.
Domestic postal identifierFormat depends on the domestic product and receipt or label. Use the complete identifier printed by Bulgarian Post.
Merchant order or reference numberA seller-created reference may contain letters, digits or separators and is not necessarily a Bulgarian Post tracking number.

The first two letters and final country code in an S10 identifier relate to the postal identifier and issuing country; an item ending in BG is not, by itself, proof that every transport leg was performed by Bulgarian Post. A marketplace buyer should normally use the number shown in the dispatch message, while a sender should use the identifier on the postal receipt or label.

Other domestic or international productsUse the applicable Bulgarian Post product information or tariff calculator rather than applying the EMS standard.

Destination Country Delivery Times

DestinationEMS planning range
European destinationsUse the published range of 3–5 working days after dispatch; the exact destination, customs and local delivery arrangements determine the result.
Non-European destinationsUse the published range of 5–9 working days after dispatch; customs, flight routing and destination processing may add time.
89 EMS countriesThe official EMS page confirms the destination count but directs users to the country-zone list for destination-specific applicability.

The official range is a delivery standard or estimate beginning after dispatch, not a universal guarantee. Weekends, public holidays, address quality, weather, customs and handoffs can change the delivery date.

Common Tracking Problems and Solutions

Problem & Solution

Customs or destination handoverCheck whether duties or documents are requested and identify which destination operator currently holds the item.
Delivered but not receivedCheck the address, mailbox, household members, reception desk, neighbours and collection notice; then ask the delivery operator or sender for delivery details.

International Shipping, Customs and Carrier Handoffs

For an international EMS shipment, Bulgarian Post accepts and processes the item in Bulgaria, export procedures and transport follow, and a destination postal or delivery operator may perform import processing and final delivery. Arrival at an exchange office is not the same as customs release.

International transportLine-haul transport takes place between origin and destination networks.

2. Where can I find my Bulgarian Post tracking number?

Look on the postal receipt, shipping label or merchant dispatch message; an order number may be different.

The first meaningful scan appears after the item is accepted or processed; a label or electronic pre-advice does not prove handover.

Bulgarian Post publishes 3–5 working days for European EMS destinations and 5–9 working days for destinations outside Europe after dispatch.

Expert FAQs

No; the issuing postal operator is associated with the identifier, while another postal operator may perform a later transport or delivery leg.

Bulgarian Post describes EMS as an international courier service for goods and documents, with a maximum weight of 30 kg and online tracking.

Yes; the official Interconnect quotation page provides a request route, telephone contacts and a sales email for quotation or contract inquiries.
