Documents and certification: what to check before an international shipment

A concise checklist for a preliminary product review before launching a shipment.

01

Define the category and composition

An accurate product description, composition, purpose, and packaging determine the subsequent documentation route.

02

Check the labeling

Label translation is not a formality: it must reflect the requirements of the specific category and market.

03

Verify changes

Regulated requirements change, so the final list of documents should be confirmed before every shipment.

04

Connect the documents with the route

The invoice, packing list, certificates, and labeling data must describe the same product and match the selected import scheme.

05

Do not print packaging too early

It is better to approve the label layout before the print run: correcting mandatory information after production is usually more expensive than a preliminary audit.
