AliExpress Icon and Symbol Meanings: A Comprehensive Guide

AliExpress is an online marketplace where you can find almost anything you need at a great price. However, sometimes it can be confusing to understand what the significance of the diverse symbols and icons on the website means. In this tutorial, we'll explain the most important AliExpress symbols and icons, so you can shop with confidence.

Symbols that offer advantages

Some AliExpress products come with certain advantages, such as fast shipping, being sold by a recognized seller, or easy returns. These advantages are usually indicated by symbols on the product page. Here are some examples:

Local shipping symbols

Products with local shipping are shipped from a warehouse located in your country, so they typically arrive within 72 hours or less. If you're in Europe, you may also see symbols indicating that VAT is included or that returns are easier.

To find products with local shipping, look for the option to choose between different warehouses, or check for the "Ships from" label on the product page.

Fast delivery symbols

AliExpress has partnered with various shipping companies to offer faster shipping options, even for products shipped from China. If a product has a fast delivery symbol (with a number of days indicated), it means you can expect it to arrive more quickly than standard shipping.

To search for products with fast shipping options, you can filter your search results by shipping time.

Free return symbols

Some sellers offer free returns within a certain period (usually 15 days) if the product is in perfect condition and unused. Look for the "Free Return" option when filtering your search results to find these products.

Symbol of Top brand or official store

AliExpress designates the best stores with the "Top Brand" symbol, which you can find next to the seller's rating. The "Top Brand" symbol is exclusively given to stores that have outstanding ratings or are the official store of a well-known brand.

Common acronyms: prices, tracking, quantity

We have received a lot of inquiries regarding the meaning of different acronyms used on AliExpress. To provide some clarity, we have compiled a list of the most commonly used acronyms and their explanations. So, if you're wondering what these acronyms mean, read on for more information.

Acronyms in prices

We've been getting a lot of questions about acronyms related to currencies on AliExpress. Here are some of the most common ones:

  • EUR: Refers to the currency used in the European Union, which is the Euro.
  • CAD: in Canada, which is the Canadian Dollar.
  • NZD: in New Zealand, which is the New Zealand Dollar.
  • GBP: in the United Kingdom, which is the Pound Sterling.
  • RUB: in Russia, which is the Russian Ruble.

When viewing prices on AliExpress, you will typically see a number followed by the currency acronym. You can change your currency and country by accessing the settings section of the application or by selecting your preference from the top right corner of the website. However, in some countries, prices may still be displayed in US dollars (US, USD, or $) even if you've selected your local currency.

Acronyms in the tracking

If you're tracking your order on AliExpress, you may come across some acronyms that you don't understand. Here are the most common ones and their meanings:

  • CN: This stands usually appears in the tracking information or in the product advertisement to indicate where the item is being shipped from. It's typically accompanied by the word "China," but the appearance may depend on your AliExpress configuration.
  • Null: This indicates a translation error in the tracking message, which occurs when the package is still in China and the translator cannot decipher the message.
  • GMTC: When you are checking your package tracking on AliExpress, you might encounter the acronym "GMTC" in the tracking information, which means that your package is currently in transit offices located in China. If you come across this abbreviation, don't panic, and just be patient for a few more days until the system updates with new tracking messages.

If you're unsure about the different tracking messages you're receiving, we recommend checking out our AliExpress tracking status guide for more information on the most common acronyms and their meanings.

Acronyms on products

  • 1 PCS: This acronym simply indicates the quantity of the product. If you see 2 PCS, it means you have added two pieces of the product to your cart. If you see "PCS", your AliExpress language setting is likely set to English.
  • MOQ: This stands for "Minimum Order Quantity". This term denotes the smallest quantity of products that must be included in an order to proceed with the purchase. While this term is more commonly seen on Alibaba, it may also appear on AliExpress.
  • Drop: This term can have two different meanings. One of the meanings is to upload or transfer a document to the seller, either to settle a dispute or simply share information. The second meaning is related to dropshipping, which involves the seller shipping the product directly to a third party, while we act as intermediaries to earn a profit.

Acronyms related to your account

  • A0, A1, A2, A3, or A4: These are user levels that indicate your activity and engagement on AliExpress. You can learn more in the AliExpress member program article.
