Trace

Carrier tracking

New Zealand Post tracking API

New Zealand Post is a domestic carrier serving NZ routes. Trace accepts the New Zealand Post carrier code (nzpost) and returns a normalized tracking timeline when a source provides usable data.

Use the Trace package tracking API to track New Zealand Post shipments without integrating directly with New Zealand Post's own systems. Send a tracking number, and Trace detects the carrier automatically where possible or accepts the code explicitly.

Automatic detection covers selected number formats. For ambiguous or unlisted formats, send the carrier code explicitly (nzpost); a listed code does not guarantee live events. Send a tracking number to the Trace API and receive a normalized event timeline.

curl -X POST https://api.traceapi.dev/v1/track \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer trc_test_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tracking_number":"YOUR_TRACKING_NUMBER"}'
