Number of untracked National and International parcels that don't arrive

Jonathan Berry made this Official Information request to New Zealand Post Limited

The request was refused by New Zealand Post Limited.

From: Jonathan Berry

Dear New Zealand Post Limited,

I would like to know what percentage of international parcels never arrive to their destination.
I would also like to know separately what percentage of national parcels never arrive to their destination.

If NZ post has no knowledge of this, then I would like to know why they have not tried to establish the reliability of their service, I would suggest that in such an event they produce a questioner to ask people about packages, both national and international to try and establish this information.

Yours faithfully,
Jonathan Berry

Dear Mr Berry,
You have requested the following information under the Official
Information Act:
I would like to know what percentage of international parcels never arrive
to their destination.
I would also like to know separately what percentage of national parcels
never arrive to their destination.
​I confirm that NZ Post does not record information in relation to
untracked parcels, with the result that we are unable to calculate which
percentage of all international and domestic parcels "never arrive at
their destination". In addition, NZ Post is not informed in all cases
whether or not a parcel has arrived at its destination.
Kind regards,
OIA Officer
NZ Post
