Royal Mail publishes its whole tariff, a daily service bulletin and a map of every postbox, locker and counter in the open. We turn them into dated rows your pricing and support teams can query.

We run the collection end to end. royalmail.com turns away plain automated clients, so anti-bot handling, proxy rotation and CAPTCHA solving are part of the job, together with rendering script-built pages such as the locator. We extract Royal Mail data on the rhythm each source needs: tariffs on every announced round and a weekly check, the Service Update and the International Incident Bulletin daily, locations weekly. For Royal Mail tracking you send us tracking numbers from your own order system, and we return status, event history, service and delivery window on your schedule. Every row keeps its source page and capture time, delivered as JSON, CSV or XLSX.
Royal Mail prices are published per service, format and weight band, so one row is one price point. For Royal Mail Tracked 24, Royal Mail Tracked 48, Royal Mail Special Delivery Guaranteed by 9am and by 1pm, Signed For 1st and 2nd Class, 1st Class and 2nd Class we extract:
Royal Mail stamp prices and Royal Mail parcel prices come out of the same tables: in late September 2026 a 2nd Class letter up to 100g started at 91p and a 1st Class letter at GBP 1.80. Royal Mail provides tracking to the delivery point on Tracked 24, Tracked 48 and Special Delivery Guaranteed, Signed For items get two scans at acceptance and delivery, and 1st and 2nd Class are sold as untracked - a service attribute we keep on every row.
Royal Mail international prices add a destination. Each country sending guide lists Royal Mail International Tracked, International Standard and International Economy with the delivery aim for that country, its own branch and online prices and the restricted items for it. Royal Mail price changes are data as well: the yearly Prices page groups every change by effective date and names the price guides behind it, and the surcharges page keeps the Fuel and Energy Surcharge, currently 16% after a rise from 11% in May 2026, with a separate rate for Parcelforce Worldwide.
Royal Mail locations are the third data set. The locator currently counts over 130,000 drop-off points and returns each with a type - Postbox, Parcel Postbox, Parcel Locker, Royal Mail Shop, Post Office, Customer Service Point, Royal Mail Delivery Office or Parcelforce Depot - plus name, address, postcode, distance and an open-now flag. Fields per point:
Postbox names read as a street plus a cross street, often with an L or R suffix, and each carries a postcode, so the Royal Mail parcel postbox layer and Royal Mail parcel lockers map straight onto postcode districts. Royal Mail Local Collect, the business option that holds Tracked and Special Delivery items at a counter or locker for pickup, uses the same network and currently spans Collect+ points, Post Offices, 2,000 Parcel Lockers and 1,200 counters of the Royal Mail Customer Service Point type. Weekly snapshots show new Royal Mail drop off points, closures and changed hours by area.
A Royal Mail scraper turns the public side of royalmail.com into tables: the postage tariff for every UK and international service, the price rounds and surcharges behind it, the daily Service Update, the International Incident Bulletin and the locator that maps postboxes, lockers and counters. Royal Mail runs the UK universal postal service, so its prices and delivery aims are the baseline other carriers get measured against.
Personal pages list each service with two prices per format - Branch from for a Post Office counter and Online from for postage bought through Royal Mail Click and Drop and other online channels - next to the weight limit, dimensions, delivery aim and compensation cover. Royal Mail business prices work differently: account services such as Royal Mail 24 and 48, Tracked Returns and International Business Tracked show features and entry thresholds on the page, while the rates sit in the business price guide.
Parcelforce Worldwide belongs to the same group and meets Royal Mail in three places: its express24, express48 and globalpriority prices appear on the Royal Mail Price Finder page next to Royal Mail services, its depots are a location type in the Royal Mail locator, and it keeps its own service updates and 9-character consignment numbers on parcelforce.com. Royal Mail data scraping can hold both brands in one schema, with a brand field on every row.

Most buyers of this data are shippers and the software they run on.
The Service Update shows only today. A daily capture turns Royal Mail delays into a history of Royal Mail service disruption by delivery office and postcode area, so recovery is measured over weeks instead of guessed. The same page states how often Royal Mail aims to deliver - six days a week to every address it has mail for - and the holiday tables for England and Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland list local days off by postcode area.
Learn how to use web scraping to solve data problems for your organization
Leveraging advances in technology, the AI-powered web scraper has skyrocketed in demand and is helping to expand capabilities by automating tedious daily tasks and speeding up data collection from thousands of websites several times over.
Web scraping is a method of obtaining web data by extracting it from pages of web resources with the help of a program, that is, in automatic mode. It is used to syntactically convert web pages into more usable forms.
If you specialize in machine learning, you need to feed large amounts of data to the algorithms. Web scraping is the easiest and the most efficient method of collecting the data from all over the Internet.
ScrapeIt is a managed web scraping team: we build the Royal Mail collectors, run them and repair them when royalmail.com changes a table, a page or its locator. A sample comes first, so you check the fields against your own pricing or support workflow before committing. We collect public pages only - no logins, no paywalls - and personal data stays out: recipient names, signatures and delivery photos are never part of a Royal Mail dataset we deliver.
Yes. The ScrapeIt Royal Mail API returns the fields on this page as JSON: service, format, weight band, branch and online price, VAT note, delivery aim and compensation cover; Service Update rows by delivery office and postcode district; incident entries by country; and locations with type, opening hours and last collection times. For your own parcels, the ScrapeIt Royal Mail tracking API returns status, service and event history. It runs on the schedule you set, with CSV and XLSX files alongside.
We collect only publicly available data - everything a visitor can see on Royal Mail - and we collect it legally. No logins, no paywalls: prices, service updates, incident bulletins and locations are open pages. Under GDPR we keep personal data out - recipient names, signatures and delivery photos are not collected, and tracking covers only numbers you own. We also do not offer the postcode and address lookup as a dataset: it is a register of addresses tied to people's homes.
Royal Mail prices change in announced rounds - a main spring round for stamps, parcels and international services, then further rounds for parcels and business mail later in the year - while surcharges move on their own notice: 14 days for the Fuel and Energy Surcharge, 30 days for letter adjustment charges. A Royal Mail price increase is listed on the yearly Prices page before it takes effect, so we capture tariffs on announcement and on the effective date, check them weekly and collect service updates daily.
Yes, as published delivery aims. Each UK service carries one: next working day for 1st Class and Tracked 24, two to three working days for Tracked 48, guaranteed by 9am or 1pm for Special Delivery. How long a 2nd Class Royal Mail delivery should take is stored the same way - within 3 week days. Country guides add destination aims, from 3-5 working days in Europe on International Tracked to up to 12 weeks to Australia on International Economy. Measured transit times come from tracking events on your own parcels.
Royal Mail tracks by reference number only - there is no name or address search - and a Royal Mail tracking number runs from 9 to 27 characters. You pass us the numbers from your own orders; we never guess or enumerate anyone else's. For each one we read the Royal Mail track and trace page and return the Royal Mail tracking status, the event history with times and places, the service, the destination and the delivery window where one is given. Parcelforce consignments use 9-character numbers and fit the same schema.
