What is speed post?
Speed post is the premium express mail delivery service offered by India Post, the national postal service of India. It provides time-bound delivery of letters, documents, and parcels across India and to over 180 countries worldwide. Speed post is one of the most affordable courier services in India with reliable tracking.
How speed post tracking works
Every speed post article is assigned a unique 13-character consignment number at the time of booking. This number is scanned at each transit point, including the origin post office, sorting hubs, and the destination delivery office. Each scan creates a tracking event that you can view online.
Understanding your tracking number
A speed post tracking number follows the format: two uppercase letters, nine digits, and two uppercase letters. For example, EK123456789IN. The first two letters indicate the service type (EE for EMS, EM for electronic, EK for domestic speed post). The last two letters (IN) indicate the origin country, India.
