Although the shipping mark is not compulsory for international shipment, most customers will require marks on each carton in case of any missing or confusing.
The shipping mark content and style totally depends on customers and suppliers. If customers have their own fixed marks, they should send the mark to makeup brush manufacturers to make such marks on the cartons. If customers have no fixed marks and are no so familiar with the mark issues, the brush manufacturers can design the marks and send them to customers for confirmation.
Usually, the marks should be printed on the outer cartons, it means: the makeup brush manufacturer should send the marks to the carton factory and require the carton factory to print the marks on each carton. However, if the carton quantity is so few that the carton factory does not want to print the marks on each carton, the makeup brush manufacturers should feedback such situation to customers and try to get customers’ approval to firstly print the marks on paper and then stick the paper on each carton.
In fact, the customs has no requirement on mark style or content, no mark is also ok. Shipping mark is only a way to distinguish our cartons from all others, since there are so many cartons in a same port or airport. Shipping mark can help customers find their goods accurately and immediately.
A shipping mark usually contains such information: customer’s name or abbreviation, destination (port or city), order number and carton number. For example:
ABC (customer name)
Vancouver (customer’s location)
PO#20110101
Carton#:1-20
The important issue is the exporter should ensure the consistency of all related documents. For example, if your invoice shows no mark, all other documents (packing list, declaration, B/L), should show the same information. If the invoice shows mark information, all other documents should show the same mark information. Otherwise, the shipment may be hold on customs and can not reach customers.
