CONSOLIDATION RECORD
Before handoff, product lines should reconcile to carton labels and the packing list. Mixed-category shipments benefit from line-specific identifiers so that an overall carton count cannot hide a shortage or substitution within one category.
PACKING METRICS
Carton dimensions, gross and net weight, pallet arrangement, stack limits and battery configuration influence freight selection. Packaging requirements should be agreed for the actual route and product rather than copied from a previous shipment.
DOCUMENT CHANNEL
Commercial invoices, packing lists, origin information and carrier documents depend on the transaction and destination. The buyer or importer remains responsible for customs classification, duties, approvals and lawful import unless a written agreement allocates a specific task differently.
HANDOFF WINDOW
Any 24–72 hour indication concerns coordination after stock, payment, verification, documents and carrier acceptance are confirmed. It is not an unconditional international delivery time.
