Return to Sender Request: USPS Package stuck at Chinese Customs

|

Hello, I am the sender and I made a mistake on the shipping address to the recipient in Hunan, China.

It is currently held at the “Chinese Import Customs On-Hold for user to pay taxes” for almost 3-4 months. I wish to request to have the package return back to me (the sender). 

My USPS tracking number is: CH159633601US. I cannot find a working email address for the Chinese Import Customs in Beijing. Someone please help. Just need my package return back to the sender.

Hi Andromeo,

Sorry, we are only a tracking platform and couldn't deal with the package for you. You need to contact the receiver in China and request the receiver in China to help you contact China Post to return it back. The receiver needs to call China Post service number 11185 to require.

What is the phone number I can call from the U.S. to China Post that handles my specific package problem? I assume there are different phone number for each Province? I can find someone who can speak Mandarin Chinese and call for me.

Parcel blocked at Chinese customs (please return to sender) (1 reply)

Dear Sir/Madam,

I am contacting you regarding a parcel that appears to be blocked at Chinese customs for several days.

Here are the shipment details:

Tracking number: EW165453175FR
Sender: SU RUIBIN - FU XING LU FU QUN LOU 77 HAO - 518031 FUTIAN
Recipient: Maxime Ancelot, DEMEYERE SARL - 55, rue de la Papinerie - 59390 Lys-Lez-Lannoy
Date of shipment: 08/09/2025

According to the tracking information, the parcel has been stuck in customs due to document issues (invoice or declaration problem). Unfortunately, the recipient (seller) is no longer responding to any of my messages or phone calls, and we suspect a possible fraudulent situation.

Since the parcel cannot be delivered under these conditions, I would like to request that the package be returned to the sender.
Please confirm whether this return is possible and inform me of the steps or documents required to initiate the return process.

Thank you very much for your assistance.

Best regards,
Maxime ANCELOT

Request package return to sender (1 reply)

Hello, I sent a package early last month to China (I’m from USA) and it looks like the person I sent it to is not there anymore. Is there a way to request the item to return to me? My tracking CH128419890US. I tried the Chinese post numbers but no English option. Any assistance is appreciated.
