Do I need to choose a tracking type?

Choose a tracking type before opening official tracking. If Auto has not identified a type, select one that matches your reference.

What if the official page does not return a result?

Check the reference against your shipping document and confirm the type on PIL’s website. If it still has no result, contact the carrier or the party that arranged the booking. Lines Tracking does not receive the carrier’s error details.

Where will I see the shipment information?
