The packing list contains information related to the shipment that is required during import and export procedures. Unlike a proforma invoice, it is not possible to refer to a standard format for a packing list, even though it includes product details such as the number of items and packages. Frequently used in customs procedures, the packing list is an important document that facilitates storage and shipment processes.
