A package was sent from China to a new address, but without a change of address. Is it still safe to pick it up at the post office?

I ordered a package yesterday from China, which means it has to go through customs, where import fees will likely apply. And from experience, DHL and the like have to drop it off at the post office, and you can then pay the fees at the post office and pick it up with your ID.

However, the package will be delivered to my new address. However, I haven't re-registered yet, which doesn't happen until April 11th, the registration deadline. But the package should arrive before then. And when I probably have to pick it up at the post office and they want my ID, it still has my old address on it and not my new one. And the package has my new address on it.

I'm worried they won't want to release the package to me. What's the best way to proceed?

Can I present it with another document, such as the rental agreement, which proves that I live at the new address, as stated on the package, or do they only accept my ID card?

Or what other solutions are there? I'm not very familiar with this and would appreciate some advice.

Thanks in advance. 🙂

Good evening.

You can redirect it to a packing station.

Kind regards.

…I'm worried that they don't want package to get out.

The concern is justified.

How best to do this?

A person of your trust writes a power to pick up.

Correct. This is the only possible way. Everything else doesn't work

depends on what you ordered, it can be quite expensive for you.

how to send a package to a wrong address if the "false" recipient refuses acceptance, he will probably do that will go back. the parcel service looks into the tube because it already had expenses. you haven't reported yet. how you can only:
