When sending goods outside the European Union, it's important to know that they will be subject to customs clearance, which is done by submitting a declaration to the Customs Office. To prepare the declaration, an invoice is required. Each country to which the goods are being sent may have its own requirements regarding the information that should be included on the invoice. Therefore, it's essential to see what basic data must be included on the invoice.
- The invoice must be printed (not handwritten), no crossing out or correction fluids are allowed; five signed and stamped copies must be prepared.

In the DPD Online application, generate the label and affix it to the package. Ensure that the label is printed in good quality so that the scanner can easily read the code.

In the case of shipping to the United Kingdom and Ukraine, after preparing the label, proceed to the customs clearance module and fill in all the necessary data. The DPD Online instructions provide a description of each step.
Prepare, print, and sign the declaration. Additionally, if you are sending a package to Ukraine, attach a statement of limited destination territory.
