GZYL tracking: YL…YQ numbers, scans and who to ask

GZYL tracking number: what it looks like

GZYL's waybills are YL, ten digits and YQ, 14 characters in all. With invented digits:

Spaces and lower case don't matter when you paste the number into Peek.

Where to find it. The seller books the parcel with GZYL and passes the number on. If you can't find it, see how to find your tracking number.

GZYL tracking statuses explained

GZYL writes its steps in English, typos included. In the order a parcel gets them:

A line in Chinese. For an order with no scans yet, the platform GZYL's tracker runs on writes 货物电子信息已经收到 by itself: "the goods' electronic information has been received". The seller has created the order, but nobody has scanned the parcel. Peek shows the line in Chinese, under "Label created".

Times. Every time on GZYL's tracker is on Beijing's clock, steps in your country included, with no time zone shown. In winter, a step at 20:00 there is noon in London and 7am in New York.

Steps written in advance. GZYL writes much of a parcel's timeline ahead of time, up to Delivered. All of an order's steps can be written at the same moment, days before most of the times they show, and the tracker shows each one once its time comes. A step written that way is a plan, not a scan of your parcel. Meiteshun, on the same tracking platform, does this too. Tracking services that copy GZYL's record can show those steps too, so a Delivered on GZYL's tracker or on a tracking service doesn't prove your parcel arrived.

Who delivers GZYL parcels

Peek doesn't know who delivers GZYL parcels in the US, the UK, Ireland, Canada or Australia: GZYL's steps in your country name no company. The only delivering company Peek can hand a GZYL parcel over to is Swiss Post, in Switzerland and Liechtenstein.

Peek found no delivery times from GZYL, and no rules for delivery attempts, pickup points or how long a parcel is held: those are the delivering company's. Ask the seller which company delivers your order and for its tracking number.

GZYL parcel not arriving or tracking stuck

Only Order information received or 货物电子信息已经收到. The seller has created the order, but GZYL hasn't scanned the parcel. If nothing follows after a few days, ask the seller whether it has really been sent.

Stuck at customs. If you're asked for import charges, see parcels held at customs. If the parcel stays there for days, tell the seller.

GZYL's tracker or a tracking service shows more than Peek. Peek holds back steps written ahead of the time they show and steps dated after its last check (below), so the extra steps may be GZYL's plan, not scans. Go by the delivery estimate the shop gave, and ask the seller once it has passed. More in why tracking stops updating and tracking a parcel from China.

Delivered, but nothing came. The step may be part of GZYL's plan, not a scan. Tell the seller the parcel hasn't arrived, and ask which company delivers it and for its number. More in delivered but not received.

Nothing found. For a number it doesn't know, GZYL's tracker shows one result with your number under 参考号 (reference) and every other field empty. Peek keeps checking, but compare the number with the seller's message.

Lost or returned. The seller booked the parcel with GZYL, so ask the seller, or the marketplace, for a refund or a new parcel. See lost parcels and returned to sender.

GZYL contact number and customer service

As of 30 October 2026, Peek found no contact details for GZYL: no website besides its tracker, and no phone number or email for recipients. The seller booked the parcel and is the one to ask about your order, and the marketplace if the seller doesn't answer.

Track a GZYL parcel with Peek

Peek can't be sure of a GZYL number by its shape alone: YL, ten digits and YQ is only a weak match. Paste it all the same: Peek follows more than 3,500 carriers. While you add it, Peek asks GZYL's tracker ("Checking tracking services…") and shows "GZYL has this parcel." when the tracker knows the number. Otherwise press "Change" and pick GZYL under "Fits this number" (typing 广州云链 finds it too), or use "Change carrier" on a parcel you've already added. A seller's reference works the same way, and Peek then shows the order's own number, labelled "GZYL tracks this as". Peek drops dashes, though, so a reference with dashes isn't found: ask the seller for the YL…YQ number.

Peek reads GZYL's own tracker and shows the status, each step with its place, and the service name and destination country when GZYL's record gives them. Times are read on Beijing time and shown in your device's time zone. Peek leaves out the names, address, weight, fees, signature and proof of delivery GZYL's record can hold, and shows no expected delivery date: GZYL gives none.

Peek holds back any step written more than twelve hours before the time it shows, and any step dated after the moment it checks, on Beijing time. It goes by the steps it keeps, not by the record's summary status. An order whose steps are all held back has no tracking history in Peek yet, and Peek then sets aside tracking services' copies of those steps too. When GZYL's tracker can't be reached, though, Peek asks tracking services instead, and their copies can include steps GZYL wrote ahead.

Peek stays with GZYL's tracker: if the seller gives you the delivering company's number, add it as a parcel of its own. Peek checks every 10 minutes by day and every hour or two overnight. It can notify you of every scan, important steps only or the delivery only: "Important steps" covers GZYL's two customs steps and Delivered, not its flights or sorting. Peek can't contact GZYL or the seller for you.

Questions about GZYL tracking

What is GZYL (广州云链)?

广州云链货运代理有限公司 (Guangzhou Yunlian), a freight forwarder in Guangzhou, China. Its waybills are YL, ten digits and YQ.

Is every YL…YQ number a GZYL number?

Not for sure. YL, ten digits and YQ is GZYL's layout, and no other carrier in Peek's catalog uses it, but Peek still asks GZYL's tracker before it counts the number as GZYL's. With nine or eleven digits, it isn't GZYL's layout.

Why does GZYL say my parcel was delivered when it wasn't?

It may be a step GZYL wrote in advance. GZYL writes much of a parcel's timeline ahead, Delivered included, and a step written that way is a plan, not a scan. Peek holds such steps back from GZYL's tracker. Tell the seller the parcel hasn't arrived and ask which company delivers it.
