To get tracking for 1st class international you have to pay about 12 USD more to get registered and with that the tracking is not the greatest. They will tell you it will track the package through delivery in the destination country. I did not find this to be not so good. This 1st class package was sent to a friend in Brazil. I know the package was successfully received. Brazilian Correios shows this. USPS does not.
When shipping to Brazil US Post Office will tell you that you can not buy tracking for Priority International shipping. Turns out that it appears USPS Priority packages with the large customs form can be tracked after they arrive in Brazil using the customs label from the US origin form. You use the Brazilian post office website to do the tracking. Here is an example:
The customs form label number when I sent the package here in the USA was: cp500575666us Note all spaces should be removed in order to function with the Brazilian correios website . Enter in the space below: Rastreamento de objetos and click on "Buscar"
Referring below: The flow is as followings: Customs > CTCI Rio > CTE Benfica Rio > CTE Curritiba > CEE Maringa > ACCI Cidade Verde ( local post office) > Destinatario …………. city of RJ is very far from Marina. Intermediate hub city was used ( Curitiba )
CEE looks to be the business unit that acts as the intermediary between cities. In this case a trans shipment occurred in Curitiba as the package traveled from city of RJ to Maringa.

- Alfandega = Customs
- CTCI = Centro de Tratamento do Correio Internacional – 2 CTCI exist in Brazil. São Paulo / Rio de Janeiro. Funcionando como centralizadores das correspondências vindas do exterior para o Brasil.

- CTE = Centro de Tratamento de Encomendas

- ACCI = Agência Comercial do Tipo I – These may be owned or outsourced, it is good to call ahead to make sure
- ACF = Agência de Correio Franqueada ( Fraqueada = Franchised ) franchised agencies has limitations.
Currently only the agency's own Post Office can work with the Postal Bank, Agencies franchisees (ACF) or Type I Commercial Agencies Outsourcing (ACCI) do not operate with the Postal Bank ( Banco Postal ) . More on "People's Banks" in NewsWeek ( dressing up a capitalist idea in commy terms! LOL )
Experiment Number 3
- Sending a Blackberry 7290 Fabio
- Used a small flat rate box which cost = 14USD
- Used small customs form
- LC402759996US USPS tracking
- .QueryList?P_LINGUA=001&P_TIPO=001&P_COD_UNI=cp500575697US”>Correios Tracking of cp500575697us
Referring to below: Note the flow: CTCI Rio > CTE Benfica > CDD Angras > AC ( Agencia Correios Endereço: PC LOPES TROVAO, 142 ) …… this means the final sort is handled in Angras as you would expect. There was no intermediate postal hub used. Angras is very near city of RJ.
Experiment 5 – The track to Florianopolis
Experiment 7 – 4 phones > Luiz > in pieces
Experiment #8 – 2 routers and 2 phones to Boliva
