Shipping Confirmation Emails

Sent the moment an order leaves your warehouse, these confirm what shipped, when it should arrive and what to do if tracking stalls, so fewer customers write in to ask.

Tracking Number and Delivery Date

Subject: Order [order number] has shipped, arriving [date]
Preview: Your [carrier] tracking number, what's in the box, and who to contact if it stalls.
Hi [first name],
Your order is packed, labeled and on its way with [carrier].
Tracking number: [tracking number]
Estimated delivery: [date]
Shipping to: [shipping address]
In the box: [product name] x [quantity]
We'll email again when it's out for delivery. If the tracking hasn't moved by [date], just reply here. We'll chase [carrier] for you, no phone queues on your end.
[Track Your Delivery]
Thanks for ordering,
[Store name]
Send within an hour of fulfillment, and use the carrier's own delivery estimate rather than a fixed range, so the date in the subject is one customers can plan around.

Partial Shipment Confirmation

Subject: Part of your order has shipped. The rest follows [date]
Preview: No extra shipping to pay. A second tracking email comes when the rest leaves.
Hi [first name],
To get things to you sooner, we've split order [order number] into two shipments.
Shipped today with [carrier], arriving by [date]:
[product name] x [quantity], tracking number [tracking number]
Shipping on [date]:
[product name] x [quantity], waiting on [reason, such as a restock from our maker]
The second delivery costs you nothing extra, and a separate tracking email will follow when it leaves. Rather not wait? Let us know by [date] and we'll cancel that item with a full refund.
[Track the First Package]
More soon,
[Store name]
Send as soon as the first package of a split order ships, and only promise a date for the rest if the stock is confirmed, not just expected.

International Shipment With Customs Note

Subject: Heading to [country]: what to expect at customs
Preview: Why tracking may go quiet for a few days, and who pays any import charges.
Hi [first name],
Order [order number] just left our warehouse for [country] with [carrier]. Your tracking number is [tracking number].
A few things are normal for international parcels:
Tracking can go quiet for [number] to [number] days while the parcel clears customs.
Once it reaches [country], a local delivery service may take over the last leg.
Duties and taxes: [choose one: already paid at checkout, or collected by the carrier before delivery]
If customs contacts you for ID or a tax number, answer quickly so the parcel isn't sent back.
Expected delivery: [date] to [date]
[Track My Parcel]
Sent with care from [city],
