Template, form, format and sample
Searches such as packing list shipping template, shipping packing list, packing list form and packing list sample usually need a practical layout—not just a definition. This page provides all three ways to use one.
Practical tip
Keep quantities and descriptions aligned with the commercial invoice. If you calculate CBM or dimensional weight, use the outside dimensions of the packed cartons or crates and keep the same package information across documents.
These templates are general preparation tools and do not replace current carrier, broker, customer, customs or government requirements.
Using this template
What should a shipping packing list include?
Common fields include shipper and consignee information, package counts, descriptions, quantities, weights, dimensions, shipment references and marks or notes.
Can I download or print a blank packing list?
Yes. The blank template opens as a printable form that can also be saved as PDF from your browser.
How is a packing list different from a commercial invoice?
A packing list focuses on how goods are packed and counted, while a commercial invoice focuses on the commercial transaction, values and customs-related information.
Prepare shipping paperwork regularly?
Shipping Documents Pro lets you save customers, products and shipment records, then reuse that information across related documents instead of rebuilding each form from a blank template.
