FAQ

Packing List — common questions

What is a packing list in shipping?

A packing list itemises how a shipment is physically packed — the contents, quantity, weight, and dimensions of each package. It supports customs examination and lets the carrier and importer verify the consignment.

Does a packing list show prices?

No. Unlike the commercial invoice, a packing list does not show prices or values — it focuses purely on the physical packing: contents, quantities, weights, and dimensions.

Must the packing list match the commercial invoice?

Yes. Quantities must match the commercial invoice and weights/marks must match the transport document. Mismatches are a common cause of customs delays.

Can CargoFide generate a packing list?

Yes — the Document Builder generates a packing list from your shipment data and keeps it consistent with the commercial invoice and bill of lading.
