MiniPak Scan: Expanding Horizons to 152 New Destinations

We spoke with Chiara Mancardi, Product Manager at Landmark Global, about the expanded reach of MiniPak Scan and why this upgraded service is now central to lightweight cross-border shipping.

What is MiniPak Scan and how is it positioned today?

MiniPak Scan is a tracked lightweight parcel solution built for goods up to 2 kg. It uses trusted postal partner networks to provide end-to-end visibility, predictable delivery, and compliance across international routes. The service supports both boxable and non-boxable formats within the accepted size limits and integrates easily with multiple shipping and e-commerce platforms. It is designed for efficient global coverage while maintaining the same familiar shipping processes retailers already use for small items.

MiniPak Scan now reaches 210 destinations worldwide, an increase of 152 new destinations. 

This expansion is powered by enhanced global postal tracking capabilities. With regulatory changes coming in January 2026 that will prohibit sending goods through registered mail flows, MiniPak Scan becomes the compliant path forward for lightweight parcels, offering full tracking and a far wider global network.

What does this expansion mean for businesses currently using legacy registered mail or other lightweight services?

Any business still relying on registered mail flows for goods will need a compliant alternative by January 2026. MiniPak Scan, along with MaxiPak Scan for heavier items, fills that gap.

For existing MiniPak Scan clients the transition is seamless: noAPI updates are required, and the same service code remains in use. The transition happens entirely behind the scenes—customers simply gain broader global coverage, reliable event tracking, and stronger compliance with international postal and customs requirements without any technical disruption.

For businesses not yet using MiniPak Scan, this expansion is the perfect moment to upgrade from legacy or untracked lightweight services to a fully compliant, tracked solution. Making the switch now ensures readiness for upcoming regulatory changes, improves delivery transparency, and enhances customer experience—all without a complex integration project. It’s not just about compliance; it’s about gaining a smarter, more reliable shipping option that supports growth and operational efficiency.

How does MiniPak Scan compare to untracked lightweight services in practice?

MiniPak Scan keeps the same basic shipment profile. Retailers can continue shipping items up to 2 kg in the accepted formats, with the same weight and dimension rules, labeling requirements, and customs documentation such as CN23 for commercial goods. 

The difference is in visibility and reach. MiniPak Scan offers tracking events from origin to delivery, a trusted postal-based network, global coverage and consistent performance across EU and non-EU routes.

Businesses that need predictable delivery, customer facing transparency, or improved compliance with new cross border standards gain a significant advantage from the tracked version.

Why is the MiniPak Scan expansion a strategic milestone for Landmark Global?

The expansion goes beyond compliance - it strengthens the product portfolio and opens new commercial possibilities. Clients previously limited by to 58 destinations now have access to 210, ensuring business continuity and protecting revenue streams that must transition away from registered mail., while improving quality and reliability of services we provide.

This expansion also allows Landmark Global to grow its footprint worldwide and offer different service levels tailored to customers’ needs, creating flexibility and choice for businesses shipping internationally.

What should businesses consider if they want to adopt MiniPak Scan now? 

First, review any flows that still depend on registered mail for goods - these need to be migrated before January 2026. Then, look at your product mix. If most shipments fall at or below 2 kg, MiniPak Scan is the natural fit. No technical changes are required. The same service code applies.

For businesses handling large volumes of lightweight items, Landmark also offers Dragon Scan—a solution that groups multiple packets into a single bag for efficient processing and cost optimization. This option is ideal for high-volume e-commerce operations looking to streamline logistics while maintaining tracking and compliance.

The benefits are straightforward: predictable costs, global reach, full traceability, compliance with international postal and customs requirements, and minimal operational friction 

Closing remarks

MiniPak Scan is the evolution of lightweight e-commerce shipping. It delivers global reach, full tracking, postal network reliability, and compliance with future regulations. Retailers gain an upgraded service without a heavy technology project and without altering the fundamentals of their parcel workflow.
