Notes

  • Source: postnl.post, PostNL International's e-commerce tracker. An anonymous 24-hour bearer token is fetched automatically.
  • Overlap with postnl: CK123456789NL-style and 3S… numbers are also claimed by postnl, which returns not_found for these parcels. Use ?carrier=springgds for them.
  • Time zone: datetime_local is local time; it is converted from the zone of the country on the scan (Europe/Amsterdam when the scan has no country).
