It has been 42 days since parcel has left Shanghai via SAL to Germany and no other sign since then. CN post on phone doesn't provide more info, only that parcel hes left SH that day. My question is , how much time left till I should start to worry? ( when parcel is "marked" as lost ? )

Thanks

This kind of parcel starting with CP is called air/sea combined parcel. It is a very slow parcel. Normally it will arrive Germany in 4 to 6 weeks. If the parcel weight is over 2kgs, it can take up to half year to arrive.

thanks for your reply.
can you send me a legit link where China Post states that SAL takes up to half year to arrive to Europe? ( can be even in Chinese ) . Because I have a different numbers from Kunming post office. It shouldn't take more than 3 months. Half year is for the only sea parcels , therefore the price is much lower than SAL.
thank you!
