Edit Customs Information Through Batch Print

From either the Order Lookup tab or the Batch Print tab, you can access the customs declaration form to view, edit, or add quantity, description, weight, value, and country of origin for up to 1000 line items. You can also optionally save the customs information or choose to have the first line automatically be completed.

• Note: Based on shipping parameters, Endicia Professional automatically selects the correct customs form as well as the correct number of pages, and regardless of the form or label size, you can have up to 1000 line items.
