Us post office certified mail tracking number

A very specific question!

The United States Postal Service (USPS) provides a tracking number for Certified Mail, which is a type of mail that requires a signature upon delivery. Here's how to find the tracking number for Certified Mail:

Method 1: Check the Mailpiece

When you send Certified Mail, the USPS will provide you with a receipt that includes the tracking number. The receipt will have a barcode that starts with "EC" followed by a series of numbers. This is the tracking number for your Certified Mail piece.

Method 2: Check Online

You can also track your Certified Mail piece online using the USPS website. Here's how:

  1. Go to the USPS website at usps.com.
  2. Click on "Track & Confirm" at the top of the page.
  3. Enter the tracking number (EC followed by the numbers) in the "Track a Package" field.
  4. Click "Track" to view the status of your Certified Mail piece.

Method 3: Contact the USPS

If you're unable to find the tracking number or need assistance tracking your Certified Mail piece, you can contact the USPS directly. You can:

  1. Visit your local post office and ask the clerk to look up the tracking number for you.
  2. Call the USPS Customer Service number at 1-800-275-8777.
