UPS International Shipping Labels

If you are creating an international shipment with full commodity information for the commercial invoice but your label does not print with EDI then your UPS account is likely setup for paperless invoicing.

If the label says "KEY" or "INV" in the corner then you must include printed international paperwork. If you are getting a label with "KEY" or "INV" in the corner and are not getting a commercial invoice, please see this linked PDF for instructions.

Here are descriptions for codes you may see in the lower right corner of UPS labels:

EDI: Paperless shipment where no paper invoice is required

EDI-CC: Paperless International (World Ease) Global Consolidated Clearance

EDI-DOC: Document shipment, Paperless or Non-Paperless

EDI-IDIS: Paperless or Non-Paperless customer uploaded invoice and/or additional documents for shipment

EDI-PULL: Paperless shipment where no paper invoice is required and the shipper intends UPS to pull other clearance related documents from the pouch and process at the origin

INV: Non-document shipment where paper invoice is required and all information, including invoice line detail, is keyed. Pull the customs copy of the Commercial Invoice.

INV-CC: Non-document GCC (WorldEase) shipment that contains invoice line detail from the shipping system

KEY: Non-document shipment where paper invoice is required and shipper did not data capture invoice line detail or critical information is missing
