Speedaf Express tracking: numbers, statuses and contacts

Speedaf tracking number: what it looks like

A Speedaf number starts with the destination's country code: NG for Nigeria, KE for Kenya and so on. Two layouts, with invented digits:

Speedaf's tracker takes up to 20 numbers at once, one per line. Type them in capitals: it reads lower case as unknown. No number at all? See how to find a tracking number or AliExpress orders.

What Speedaf's tracking statuses mean

Speedaf writes its scans in English, otherwise in Chinese, and sometimes in your country's language. Sites appear in brackets, like 【this】, inside the line. In the order a parcel from China meets them:

A bare In Transit can hide a hold: Speedaf's code behind it is a parcel held for a stock count. Products not for personal use and Clearance Exception mean customs has a question or a problem; Long Time Tax No Paid,Email To Sender that the duty has waited a long time and Speedaf is writing to the sender.

Speedaf delivery: door, pickup site and attempts

Speedaf runs its own last-mile couriers, with door-to-door delivery and cash on delivery (COD). Its "Look for Service Site" page maps its sites.

Delivery rules come from each country's terms, written for the sender, and they differ. Nigeria's and the UAE's cover Speedaf's domestic deliveries there:

• United Arab Emirates: "Every shipment will have 3 free delivery attempts"; one that can't be delivered goes back to the sender.
• Kenya, Uganda and Pakistan: the parcel goes back to the sender if it "cannot be delivered successfully upon a third attempt", or if you refuse it or refuse to pay the charges. All three add that Speedaf delivers to the address, "but not necessarily to the named receiver in person".
• Nigeria and the UAE: a parcel counts as undeliverable if you refuse it or the COD amount, if the address is wrong or outside Speedaf's area, or if the delivery day you ask for "exceeds Speedaf holding time". Neither gives that holding time.

Speedaf publishes no pickup deadline for its sites. Missed the courier? See missed deliveries.

Speedaf customs duty: pending Tax

If duty is due, the tracking stops at pending Tax. For a parcel to South Africa, Speedaf's tracking page then shows an "I want to pay taxes" link beside the waybill number, and "Taxes paid" once it's done.

If a text or email asks you to pay, compare it with the tracking on speedaf.com first: see delivery scam texts and parcels held at customs.

Speedaf parcel late, lost or delivered but not received

Stuck. If the tracking hasn't moved for days, see tracking a parcel from China and tracking that isn't updating.

Who can claim. Speedaf's Kenyan, Ugandan and Pakistani terms say "The claim is only between the shipper and SPEEDAF"; Nigeria's and the UAE's, "Claims will only be settled with the Shipper." For an online order the shipper is the shop, so ask the shop or marketplace for a refund or a new parcel.

Tell the shop fast. Speedaf's terms set short windows:

• Damage: in writing within 7 calendar days of delivery in Kenya and Uganda, within 72 hours in Nigeria and the UAE, within 48 hours in Saudi Arabia.
• Delivered but not received: a disputed proof of delivery within 5 calendar days in Nigeria and the UAE, 5 working days in Pakistan.
• Lost: in Nigeria and the UAE, a tracking complaint within 14 calendar days of pickup. With no scan for over 24 hours, Speedaf searches for 7 working days, then declares the parcel lost if it isn't found.

Speedaf's tracking page names who signed for the parcel: check it first. More in delivered but not received and lost parcels.

Speedaf contact number and customer service

As read on 28 October 2026, each Speedaf country site lists its own contacts at the foot of the page (Ireland's and Zambia's open from the country chooser: pick the country, then English):

Each site also has a "Customer Support" form.

Track a Speedaf parcel with Peek

Peek recognises a Speedaf number by its shape when it starts with NG, GH, KE, UG, ZM, ZA, EG, MA, SA, AE, PK, KZ, MU or MV, then 9 digits and R or E. With 12 digits instead, the shape isn't enough on its own: Peek asks Speedaf, and you'll see "Speedaf has this parcel." or "Not found at Speedaf yet". Peek knows no number shape for Ireland, Switzerland, Albania, Montenegro or Serbia: for those, and any number that fits neither shape, pick "Speedaf" with "Change". A speedaf.com tracking link with tradeNo= is read as Speedaf whatever number it holds. Peek sends the number in capitals, so lower case is fine.

Peek reads Speedaf's own tracking: the status, the history, the destination country and the delivery time. Each scan carries its site's clock, China's in the warehouses, then your country's, and Peek shows it in your device's time zone. Speedaf names its sites only inside the lines, so there's no map, and it gives no expected delivery date. If Speedaf knows the number but shows no scans, as with some older parcels, Peek shows "Waiting for the carrier" and keeps checking.

Speedaf's lines appear as written, in English or else Chinese, minus the courier's, clerk's and signer's names and the courier's phone. Peek also leaves out the proof of delivery, the duty payment link and the box count, and follows only the number you added, not a waybill's other boxes. Speedaf delivers itself, so there's no second carrier.

Peek checks every 10 minutes by day, every 2 minutes once the parcel is out for delivery, and every hour or two overnight. It can notify you of every scan, important steps only or "Delivery day only". It can't pay duty, rebook a delivery or contact Speedaf or the shop for you.
