DHL Question in russia

[Sling 0]

My fiancee went to DHL and paid 1060 rubiles for this air bill I guess..

How would she know its express or whatever?

I am trying to track it on the site, anyone was able to track it before, or see it on dhl site before dhl picked up from the embassy?

Thanks!

It can't be tracked until it is shipped. I think it sounds like the right envelope.

This make no sense. You're missing some important conent here. You say, "this airbill" - well, WHAT airbill? Did you send her something? Did she send you something? What the hell are you talking about?

DHL's tracking system SUCKS by the way. I've had stuff delivered for 2 days before it shows up on DHL's system as having been delivered. I've never sent a package that had good tracking via DHL, no matter where I was sending it to or from, compared to FedEx. If you want to know where your package is, use FedEx. Everyone else sucks compared to them.

Good luck!

I've got a hunch that our buddy Sling is referring to his girl paying for the shipment of his girl's visa via DHL.

If this is correct, you can punch in the number from the envelope or receipt, or whatever she has and they will tell you where her package is. But, as aforementioned, DHL tracking sucks, and on top of that, it's in Russia, so she'll probably get the thing delivered before they even put it in the system. (And they probably don't even put it in the system.)

So, to make a long story short.... wait a week. You'll know exactly where it is. (She'll have it! You may only have to wait two or three days.)

The best option is to have the DHL package sent to the DHL office there in Moscow, and held for pickup by your gal. Minimum delay, minimum BS factor. It does require her to stay in Moscow for a couple of days - which can be expensive if she doesn't know anyone there.

My wife did this and it worked out just great. She had her passport back (with visa) 2 days after the interview.

Cheers!
