## Common EWS Tracking Problems

| Issue | Cause | What to do | When to escalate |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| No tracking update after item is shipped from China | EWS typically uses unregistered or lightly tracked shipping methods for low-cost parcel routes. Updates may only appear at key scan points. | Track via the official epost.8dt.com portal. Expect gaps of 5-10 days during international transit. | Escalate if there are no updates for more than 20 business days after shipment. |
| Tracking stops after arriving at destination country | Once handed to the local postal operator, some carriers do not relay scan events back to EWS/8DT in real time. | Use the local post office's own tracking tool with the EWS tracking number to find last-mile updates. | Escalate to the seller after 14 days with no local delivery scans. |
| Customs hold at destination | Import duties owed, restricted items, or missing customs declaration information. | Check your local customs authority's website for any pending duties or document requests. Pay any assessed duties to release the parcel. | Escalate to the seller or EWS support if customs hold exceeds 10 business days. |
| Parcel appears lost (no updates for 30+ days) | Parcel may have been misrouted, lost in transit, or returned without notification. | Contact the seller/merchant to file a claim. Sellers can raise a trace request with 8DT Global Logistics (+852 3585 0009 or service@8dt.com). | Escalate immediately if the parcel is more than 60 days from the ship date with no delivery confirmation. |
