What Does “Received from Sender” Mean?
The tracking status “Received from Sender” indicates that Hongkong Post has successfully collected your package from the sender and it is now in the postal processing system. This status confirms that your package has entered Hongkong Post’s handling network.
After “Received from Sender” appears, your package will progress through Hongkong Post’s sorting facilities where it will be processed, weighed, and prepared for international transport. Additional tracking updates will appear as these processing stages complete.
The package remains under Hongkong Post’s responsibility until it is dispatched to the destination country. Once international transport begins, tracking status will update to reflect the package’s departure from Hong Kong.
