GPOC Tracking Number Formats

To access your shipment data, you need the specific reference code assigned to your parcel. Our GPOC tracking tool relies on this standard Universal Postal Union (UPU) identifier:

  • UPU Tracking Number: The primary tracking sequence for international and premium domestic parcels always consists of 13 characters. For shipments originating in Guyana, it starts with two letters indicating the service type (e.g., “EE” for EMS Express, “CP” for standard parcels, or “LE” for registered mail), followed by nine digits, and ends with the country code “GY” for Guyana (e.g., EE123456789GY). Inbound packages will end with the origin country’s two-letter code (e.g., US, GB, CN).
