China shipment tracking often pauses for 24-48 hours during warehouse handoff, carrier pickup, customs review, or line-haul transfer. Recheck the tracking ID, last event, carrier, and destination; if there is still no update after 48 hours, contact support.
Tracking answers
Why is my China shipment tracking not updating?
A 24-48 hour gap can be normal after warehouse dispatch, carrier handoff, customs review, or line-haul transfer.
Domestic China seller tracking and international tracking may update on different systems.
Manual review is needed when the last event is old, the status shows exception, or the tracking number cannot be found.
Workflow
What to do next
- Confirm the tracking number or JTL order number was copied exactly.
- Check whether the order has left the China warehouse or is still using domestic seller tracking.
- Wait 24-48 hours after carrier handoff before treating a normal scan gap as an exception.
- Record the carrier, last visible event, event date, destination country, and order reference.
- Contact support if there is no update after 48 hours, the status shows exception, or customs/address review is shown.
Before quoting
What to prepare

What should I send support if tracking is not updating?
Send the tracking ID, JTL order number if available, destination country, last visible event, event date, and any exception message shown on the tracking page.
Why does domestic China tracking stop after warehouse delivery?
Seller domestic tracking usually ends when the parcel reaches the China warehouse. A new international tracking number may be created after consolidation and dispatch.

Contact JTLGO if there is no update after 48 hours from dispatch, if the status shows exception, or if customs, address, or carrier review appears.
