1-2 months, i received letter from california arrived in 1 months, so parcel will take even longer.

if u send using USPS, it is extremely recommended to use at least registered mail, much better express mail. USPS is popular to lost the parcels. registered and express mail cost more, but it is much better than didnt receive ur parcel.

ok thanks bro.

so i guess it's still within timeline. I just hope that the parcel doesn't lost its way or lost by any human being hehe

i purchased 2 items from 2 separate sellers. 1 sent via USPS Priority Small Flat Rate Box, 1 via USPS Flat Rate Envelope. Price of both items did not exceed RM500.

As for me, only USPS Box has tracking updates (but only until it leaves the US). USPS Envelope did not update anything.

Both items reached my house simultaneously. But with no notice from the postman (Pos Malaysia).

from my experience....

1) the longest time for postal of item from United states to malaysia would be 14 working days
2) the longest time to clear malaysia customs would be 10 working days
3) after the customs, the item/parcel/letter will be passed to poslaju and will be delivered in longest is 5 working days..

these are the longest time... the fastest i got the item would be around is supprisingly 6 DAYS!!!

posted on 13 april and recieved on 19 april using usps priority mail

so.. it depends on your luck...

you can always check the time for each...

you can go to
(http://www.usps.com/shipping/trackandconfirm.htm?from=receiveyourmail&page=deliveryverification)

to check where the item is at... and i assume you know the delivery date so it would not be a problem to see whether it has passed 14 working days...

1) if item has not being "arrived abroad" >> call usps
2) if item has been "into foreign customs" but not been "out of foreign customs" >> call customs asking why item have not cleared and call usps in order
3) if item has already bee "out of foreign customs" >> go to http://202.185.150.100/emstrack/ (thanks to SonnyCooL for url) and check or call 1300 300 300 to speak with a pos laju rep.. hope this helps all

owh.. and if you dont have any tracking number.. i think the number under the bar code or what ever number on the foreign delivery paper would do...

How can you get the information from US to Malaysia?

Above information is what I can only get. I tried to call pos laju and they said not yet arrived. Will it be lost? A nice guy told me wont, maybe it sent by kapal so take more time... I bought the thing from ebay also.. read lot of bad comment about USPS also..

First Class Mail is more like standard international mail (without tracking number) It takes about almost a month to arrive in malaysia. Once arrive in Malaysia, Pos Malaysia will handle the mail. Poslaju only handle USPS Express Mail International/Priority Mail International

Hi All,

I have ordered 2 items from Whitening Lightning and they are using USPS - First Class International ®. This service has a tracking number - i.e. LJXXXXXXXXXUS, but this tracking provides only info on the mailing date. It won't provide further details on the shipping details for IN and OUT the countries.

The shipping was posted in the system on 08.08.2011 and till now I have received no news on the parcels at all.

So checked with POS Malaysia and what the 2 officers told me was that the tracking number starts with "L" is untraceable in POS Malaysia system. They said the only solution is to check with USPS but the First Class International does not have tracking system to check the status. Hence, I have nowhere to turn to but depends on my luck if the parcel can reach me. Anyone who has faced the same problem before?? Appreciate your guidance.

Until this Thursday 29th, it's being late 1 months.

Call up my seller, they will check with the local Post office and Malaysia Pos laju.

USPS trace n confirm show up the same result never update anything.

I heard some forum Express mail it's take exactly 1 months to arrive Asia. WTF we paid Express mail for nothing.

Is your on USPS First-Class Mail as well?? Mine was since 08.08.2011. 2 items lagi.. *sad*

Mine is Express mail international.

Finger cross.

I paid by credit-card via paypal

within 45 days i can dispute,

i guess refund money.


Btw how much total if your parcel? Do first class mail comes with insurances?

now, the real waiting game is on between pos laju and me. hope to get this soon..

I'm using Usps service for my motorbike spareparts..

Yes, pos malaysia will handle the parcel when it's get here.

If u were not at home when they send the parcel, they'll send u a yellow card stating u need to collect it at the post office.....

yes, they will leave a card to inform u pick up yourself in your nearly area pos laju.


Other then that, some pos laju men will leave it at door-step without need a sign.


Good luck, My parcel 1month plus from US to msia with USPS express international, i pay expensive cost but why this service?
