Hi everybody,

Does anybody in here has an experience sending parcel to Australia with poczta-polska?

I'm currently waiting for my parcel from Poland, and it taking over 5 weeks now.

Anybody know How long does it normally take to arrive in Australia?

I'm in Perth and it was sent by Economical postal parcel.

Thank you guys.

A member of the counter staff in Poczta Polska told me once that it can take up to three months within the EU for an economy parcel to arrive, so for Australia, God only knows! I would say five weeks is not that unusual but if it doesn't have a tracking number, it might easily not show up at all :( The golden rule when using Poczta Polska is always send via their registered 'polecone' service.

Thanks Atch.

My friend who sent the parcel to me didn't know it, Until today he went to ask about it and was told it would take up to 3month, because its by sea shipping :((((

If i knew it was by sea i will never went for it. I thought it was by Air and probably take 15 days max. oh by the way this service i got the tracking number, But it hasn't update status once its left Poland.

If you have the tracking number, once it leaves Poland the item will be trackable again once it reaches Australia and enters their postal system. Just go to track and trace on the Australian post office website, enter the tracking number and if it's been scanned somewhere in Australia it will appear. So don't give up hope :)

The Australian postal service is abysmal. Mail from Oz to Europe often takes between 6 to 10 weeks. Same the other way round.

Hmmmm I'm having the same issue. Had tracking but has not updated since ,28th August and when I went to Australia post site says it is untrackable unless it was sent registered post which I doubt considering how cheap it was.

You have to tell them to send it by air and pay more, as the default parcel from poczta polska gets send by sea.

Has anyone sent anything to Australia via Poczta Polska (Priority Registered Letter)



I brought something from a Polish store. They used Poczta Polska (I didn't know how bad they were until I learnt from experiences from other people on Reddit. The Priority Registered Letter was "Sent From Poland" 17th September 2022. It's been in transit for 19 days. Poczta Polska informed me by email that it takes 5 days to reach Australia. Not guaranteed. But it's like 19 days in transit. I've contacted Australia Post and they have informed me that they haven't received letter yet. Can anyone help me by past experiences? Thank you for reading

Bad, you say? No, they are rather sensitive.

Oh I will help you. See, Australia is a police state and that causes problem. Poczta Polska is democratic institution. But really democratic, for the people. So, when you sending something to Australia show particular care and respect. Write on the package... 1 - I love Poland, 2 - I know I ask too much of you when sending to Australia that is a police state but, I must, 3 - kiss for Poczta Polska

Use postal.ninja/en to track your letter between national carriers, also polska poczta sends parcels to australia by sea if not expressly advised, not sure how letters work, but it might be the same deal. if postal ninja shows that the departure point of your letter was a seaport then u know it'll take a couple of months

Ninja won`t help here. Only show of respect to polska poczta.

At least somebody in Poland have backbone.

Poczta Polska via email said that it will take up to 5 days lol. From 17th of September to reach Australia so I presume it's going by air via Warsaw

"Sent from Poland2022-09-17 08:06WER Warszawa"

You sent it registeredmail, that's pretty much a normal airmail, 5 days is what it takes a courier letter.
