Hoobuy Shipping: Your Ultimate Guide

Hi everyone!


Welcome to this Q&A post where we'll be diving into the most frequently asked questions and providing helpful answers. I've done my best to categorize and organize these questions to make it easy for you to find what you're looking for.

In this post, it's all about logistics-related questions. So, let's get started and find the answers you need!

Q: Why is my parcel showing as shipped, but no logistics tracking information update?

A: After your parcel has been shipped, there may be a delay in the logistics tracking information update. This could be due to various factors such as processing time at customs or delays in scanning by the logistics provider. It's advisable to wait for some time and check for updates periodically.

HooBuy Shipping Process Overview

Q: Why is the logistics information not updated after my parcel shows that it has arrived at domestic customs?

A: After your parcel arrives at domestic customs, it will go through processing, and updates may not be immediately available. It is important to wait patiently for the next logistics update. If the parcel is returned, it may have failed customs inspection due to sensitive items or incorrect handling. The logistics provider may try to resubmit the parcel for inspection, and you will need to wait for updates on its status.
