Omniva files an event code with every scan and shows its English wording. A few of them read
differently from what they mean.
- Shipment registered
-
The sender created the shipment and Omniva has its data, but the item has not been handed over
yet. Nothing is moving until a drop-off or courier pickup scan follows.
- Shipment has arrived at a postal facility for further processing
-
A transit step. The facility can be a sorting line, a sorting centre or a delivery terminal,
and Omniva names which in the scan — Track91 keeps that distinction, because it is what the
shipment's route is built from.
- The shipment has been handed over to the courier
-
The item is out for delivery to the address today. Expect either a delivery, a failed attempt
or a redirection to a parcel machine before the day ends.
- Delivery attempt made
-
The wording reads like a delivery, but the underlying code is a failed attempt: nobody was
available, or the courier could not reach the recipient. A reason is filed with the scan where
Omniva gives one.
- Shipment is ready for collection from the parcel machine
-
The parcel is in the machine and waiting for you, with a door code sent separately. This is
not a delivery: a further scan is filed when the door is opened.
- Shipment delivered
-
The item was collected or handed over. Where it was delivered matters: a parcel machine, a post
office counter and a doorstep are recorded differently, and a delivery filed after a return
started means the item reached the sender.
- Shipment has been redirected to a different location
-
The destination changed — often because the recipient picked a nearer parcel machine, or
because a courier delivery was switched to one. The item keeps moving; the site named on later
scans is the new one.
- Shipment is under customs review / held in customs
-
Estonian customs is examining the item, or holding it pending a declaration or a duty payment.
Omniva files a reminder scan while it waits. Nothing moves until a release scan follows, and
any payment has to be made to Omniva or customs directly.
- Shipment is being returned to the sender
-
The item was not collected, was refused or could not be delivered, and is now travelling back.
From this scan onward the timeline describes the journey to the sender, so later arrivals and
the final delivery are return legs.
- A notification of shipment arrival has been sent
-
A message to the recipient, by text or email, rather than a movement. Track91 shows these in
the history but never lets one become the shipment's current status, so a reminder does not
displace where the item actually is.
