You’ve found the perfect haul, checked out, and now the waiting game begins. If you’re anything like me, you’ll want to know exactly where your order is—right down to the minute it’s out for delivery. Here’s how you can track your Shein order in real time:
1. Check Your Confirmation Email
After you place your order, Shein will send you a confirmation email. This email contains your order number and a link to your order details. Save this email—it’s your golden ticket to tracking updates!
2. Log In to Your Shein Account
- Head to SHEIN’s website or open the Shein mobile app.
- Click (or tap) on your profile icon, usually found in the top-right corner.
- Select “My Orders” from the dropdown menu.
3. Find the Order You Want to Track
- In “My Orders,” locate the order you want to track.
- Click “View Details” or “Track” next to that order.
4. View Real-Time Tracking
- Once you click “Track,” you’ll see the latest status updates for your package.
- If Shein has shipped your order, you’ll see a tracking number and the name of the shipping carrier (like USPS, FedEx, DHL, or others).
- Click on the tracking number link. This will often redirect you to the carrier’s website, where you can see real-time updates—sometimes even down to the current location of your package!
5. Use Third-Party Tracking Sites for More Details
If you want even more detailed information, copy your tracking number and paste it into a global tracking site like 17track or ParcelApp. These sites sometimes pull tracking data from multiple carriers and can provide a more granular view of your order’s journey, especially if your package is being transferred between international and local couriers.
6. Turn On App Notifications
If you use the Shein app, turn on push notifications. Shein will send you real-time updates as your order status changes, so you’ll never miss a beat (or a delivery!).
A Few Extra Tips:
- Processing time: Orders often take 1-3 days to process before shipping, so don’t panic if you don’t see tracking updates right away.
- Split shipments: Sometimes, Shein splits one order into multiple packages—so keep an eye out for multiple tracking numbers!
- Delivery delays: International shipping can be unpredictable. Real-time tracking is handy, but occasional delays are normal.
Bottom line: Tracking your Shein order is easy once you know where to look! With your order number and tracking link in hand, you can watch your new wardrobe essentials make their way to your door in (almost) real time.
