What is the difference between USPS tracking and Certified Mail?
USPS tracking and Certified Mail are two distinct services offered by the Postal Service. While both services provide delivery route information, there are some key differences between the two.
USPS tracking is available for various mail classes, including First-Class Mail and Priority Mail, and provides detailed updates throughout the delivery process. Whereas Certified Mail is a specific service that offers proof of mailing and proof of delivery. It requires a signature upon delivery and serves as an added layer of security and accountability.
Reasons You Are Unable to Track Certified Mail
There could be several reasons why you are unable to track your Certified Mail service.
One common reason is that the information may not update in real-time. USPS recommends waiting a few hours or even a day for the information to update.
As stated above, if you do not have the tracking number and are trying to search via the USPS website you will not have success.
