As above, confirmed build week notification comes 4 weeks prior to actual build. Here's a breakdown of all the stages (as quoted from another source on here):
1: processing order - as it sounds.
2: with the factory - parts are being ordered and are awaiting supply dates
3: BW confirmed - all parts are at factory and they've confirmed a date for build.
4: Build in progress - as it sounds, although very often skipped on the tracker as actual build is only a couple of days. States is takes 4 weeks from start of build to delivery.
5a: in transit:left the factory - on it's way to Emden.
5b: in transit:shipping - at Emden waiting a boat. Normally received 48 hours after 5a.
5c: in transit:nearly here - on boat to either Grimsby, Tyne or Sheerness depending on dealer location. At this stage VW can give you the name of the boat, but it sometimes skips this stage. Now states 10 days to dealer.
6. Arrived in the UK - as stated, takes up to 10 days apparently, although they try and do it within 7.
7. At dealer - just needs PDI and valet and is ready for you.
