# Exmate Tracking API & MCP

URL: https://docs.lastscanned.com/carriers/exmate

Query live **Exmate** (`exmate`) package status and scan history in a single synchronous `GET` request or MCP tool call. `lastscanned` auto-detects these numbers.

## Overview & Quick Facts

| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| **Carrier slug (`?carrier=`)** | `exmate` |
| **Brand aliases** | Exmate, EXMATE POD, pod.exmate.net |
| **Category** | Cross-border parcels (Korea to Japan) |
| **Single-package REST endpoint** | `GET https://api.lastscanned.com/v1/track/{trackingNumber}` |
| **Batch REST endpoint** | `GET https://api.lastscanned.com/v1/track?numbers=EXK05127188J,...` |
| **MCP server (`https://mcp.lastscanned.com`)** | `track_package`, `track_packages`, `list_carriers` |
| **Authentication & pricing** | `Authorization: Bearer lsk_live_...` · 1 free keyless lookup/day per IP |

## Tracking Number Formats & Auto-Detection

| Pass | Rule / Regex | Check Digit | Examples |
|---|---|---|---|
| **Pass 1 (`matches`)** | `/^EXK\d{8}J$/` | none | `EXK05127188J` |
| **Pass 2 (`mayMatch`)** | none | none | none |

`exmate` numbers are claimed by this carrier alone, so `?carrier=exmate` is optional.

## Notes

- **Handoff**: the page names the Japanese delivery carrier and its number (for example `"Handed to SAGAWA as EXK05127188J"`). Pass that number to `GET /v1/track/{number}` for the partner's own scans, once the parcel has cleared customs.
- **Time zone**: Korea and Japan are both UTC+9, so scan times are converted from `Asia/Seoul`.
- `code` is the Korean status label the page prints next to the English one.
