What does a GLS tracking number look like?
A GLS tracking number is a unique code given to each package, which lets you track its progress through the GLS. Here are the two types of GLS tracking numbers:
- Letter-Number Format: Starts with "GL", includes nine digits, and ends with two letters (for example, GL123456789DE).
- Number Format: Consists of either 8 or 11 digits (for example, 12E4T98A or 00123456123).
These formats allow you to check where your packages are at any time.
Can I track a GLS package without a tracking number?
Yes, if you don’t have your tracking or you've lost it, you can still monitor your shipment using alternative methods such as:
- GLS Door Tag Number: This number is left by the delivery person if you're not at home during a delivery attempt.
