Shipping internationally requires more detailed product information than domestic shipments. This data is necessary to generate the customs declaration paperwork, also known as a commercial invoice. If this information is missing or incorrect, label generation will fail.
Each product in your order must have complete customs data to avoid carrier rejection and label generation errors.
