Quick Summary
Your parcel’s delivery time depends on the courier service selected, the distance to the destination, and the type of service (Domestic, International, or On-Demand). Generally, deliveries occur on working days (Monday to Friday). On-Demand options provide the fastest delivery, while International shipments may face additional transit time due to distance and customs clearance. To get a specific arrival estimate, you can check the individual courier’s schedule or track your parcel's real-time status through the EasyTrack tool on the EasyParcel SG website.

Introduction
At EasyParcel, we understand that timely delivery is essential for a positive shipping experience. The delivery of time of your parcel will depend on several factors, including the courier service you have selected, the destination of your shipment, and the level of service you have chosen.
Here are some general guidelines to help you estimate when your parcel will be delivered:
What is Transit Time in shipping?
Transit time refers to the time it takes for your parcel to be transported from the pick up location to the delivery destination. This time can vary depending on the courier service and the distance between the pick up and delivery locations. Some courier services offer faster transit time for an additional fee.
What delivery options are available for my parcel?
Courier services usually offer different delivery options, such as Domestic delivery, International delivery or On-Demand delivery. If you choose On-Demand option, your parcel will be given priority for delivery and will be delivered faster than other types of deliveries. Learn more about each courier service so you can be prepared for your next booking.
Do couriers deliver on weekends and public holidays?
Most courier services only operate on working days (Monday to Friday), and deliveries may not be on weekends or public holidays. Be sure to check with the courier service to confirm their delivery schedule.
How many delivery attempts will the courier make?
If the courier is unable to deliver your parcel on the first attempt, they will usually make several attempts before returning it to the sender. The number of delivery attempts can vary depending on the courier service and the destination country.
Could customs clearance delay my international delivery?
EasyParcel has a comprehensive parcel status update system, with chat for your delivery inquiries, or you can first check your answers too.
If you are shipping internationally, your parcel may be subject to customs clearance. This process can take up several days and may delay the delivery of your parcel. To avoid this happening, you may learn more on shipping internationally with Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) here.
