Shipping Label – Essential Document Containing Shipping Details

The shipping label is the same as the label and refers to a document that mentions the address of the origin and destination along with the contents of the package.

Shipping label refers to a piece of paper that is attached on a parcel to be shipped. Shipping label contains some information that guides the courier company about where the parcel is headed to. They are an essential part of eCommerce logistics, which is why sellers must pay attention to carefully printing and attaching the shipping labels with correct information on the package. 

Any mistake or discrepancy arising in the shipping label can prevent your parcels from getting delivered at the right address and time. A shipping label can consist of information like the postal code, tracking number, the weight of the package, address where it is supposed to be delivered, along with methods of shipping such as standard and express shipping.
