How do I create carton labels for export cartons?
Start with the buyer or consignee mark, PO or shipment reference, product or SKU, CTN range, total cartons, destination, quantity per carton, gross weight, net weight, dimensions, origin, and handling notes. Generate a sample, then confirm the final format with your buyer, warehouse, forwarder, or platform.
What fields should be on an export carton label?
Common fields include buyer mark, shipment reference, destination, product or SKU, carton number, total carton count, quantity per carton, gross and net weight, dimensions, country of origin, and handling notes.
Is a carton label the same as a packing list?
No. The carton label appears on the physical carton, while the packing list summarizes carton and item details for shipment paperwork.
Is a carton label the same as a shipping mark?
They overlap. A shipping mark is the identification text or mark on the carton, while a carton label is the printable label layout that may include shipping mark fields, weights, dimensions, product reference, barcode notes, or platform-specific labels.
Can this replace FBA, carrier, or buyer-specific labels?
No. Use it to draft and review carton label fields. Final barcode, marketplace, carrier, warehouse, or buyer label rules should come from the required external instructions.
