Country of Origin
- When importing your shipments with a CSV file, be sure to input details based on the correct format. Tips can be found in the header column of our CSV file by hovering over the cell with your mouse.
- For example: the acceptable format for the Country of Origin (COO) is the two letter country code. If the COO is not provided in this format the import will fail.
