Just wondered if anyone has experience receiving a package from Russian via Russian Post.

last tracking said it has been exported and Parcel Force have been advised but nothing more, noticed part of it says Moscow to Kazan but thats going in the other direction heading east.

It will be going through Customs. It can take sone time because of the Tax implications, legal checks and of course the complication of checking compliance with the Sanctions that may still be in place.

I've sent low value motorbike parts to Russia, all arrived within a week, no complaints from the buyer regarding tampering / damage.

I'm receiving from Russia, hopefully it won't be too long and gets to me before the 26th. Its already cleared the customs just says Export on 5th and parcel force advised just before on the 4th, Parcel force said its not left the country yet. Read few stories online about things taking 2-3 months but they are from a few years ago, hope things have improved since then. :whistle

Could it be possible that it has arrived in the UK but has not been scanned yet, maybe in UK customs?
Last status update was 15 days ago saying Export international mail. Its been 26 - 27 days in total so far. Royal mail and Parcel force world wide have been at the Advised state for 15 days as well.

Update

It arrived in the UK today at Parcel force Hub in Coventry, hopefully i get it before friday morning :pray
i was chatting to Russian Post via online chat only yesterday asking where it was, they just said it was sent. So about 31-35 days waiting/delivery time Russia to UK if anyone is wondering and this is not around a holiday or Christmas time where you can expect waiting times to increase.
