The International tab allows you to select the export documents you want to generate and print using UPS WorldShip or the Automated Export System (AES). Your choices are Invoice, Address Only Invoice, Electronic Export Information (EEI), Certificate of Origin (CO). You can also select lane preferences for Paperless documents.
Note: If you generate your own export documents, use this tab to specify that you do not want WorldShip to generate the documents.
Using the International tab:
Choose how you want
to handle invoices:
Tip: If you have a Paperless Invoice contract, the Enable Invoice
check box is selected and is inactive. UPS prepares and submits invoices
electronically if the destination country accepts Paperless documentation.
Paperless invoices eliminate your need to print and attach invoices
to your shipments.
To generate invoices using WorldShip, do the following under Invoice:
Select
the Enable Invoice check box.
Tip: For Trade Direct shippers, this check box allows
you to print child shipment invoices.
Select the Address Only Invoice check box to print an Address Only Invoice for each Worldwide Return Services shipment.
Click the down arrow in the Currency box and select the default currency for this shipper.
Click the down arrow in the Country/Territory of Origin box and select the default country/territory of origin for this shipper.
Click the down arrow in the Invoice Logo Options box and select an option.
Select the Multiple Countries/Territories of Origin check box if more than one country/territory of origin is involved for this shipper.
Type the number of copies you want to generate in the Number of Copies to Print box.
Click the down arrow in the Declaration Statement box and select a statement. If you prefer to create your own statement (which must meet certain restrictions), click the ... button and use the Declaration Statement Editor window to add, modify, or delete a custom declaration statement. See Add a Custom Declaration Statement and Modify or Delete a Custom Declaration Statement.
If you do not want to generate invoices using WorldShip, do the following:
Clear the Enable Invoice or Address Only Invoice check box.
Click the down arrow in the Currency box and select the default currency for this shipper.
Click
the down arrow in the Country/Territory of Origin box and select the
default country/territory of origin for this shipper.
Tip: After you set these invoice defaults, you can still
change the values in the above fields for a single international shipment.
Simply click the Customs Documentation tab and select (to enable)
or clear (to disable) the Create an Invoice check box. If you select
the check box, the above fields are shown on the Invoice tab or in
the Goods window after you click the Goods button. You can change
any of these fields for the current international shipment without
changing your default settings.
Choose how you want to handle Electronic Export Information (EEI):
Click the down arrow in the Filing Method box and select a method, as follows:
Select EEI Already Filed if you do not file EEIs electronically and you print EEIs using another tool. If you select this option, the EEI tab will not appear on the Customs Documentation tab in the Shipping window.
Select EEI Not Required if you are not required to file an EEI with the US Census Bureau.
Select File EEI using AES Direct to use the Automated Export System (AES) to file an EEI electronically with the US Census Bureau prior to shipment departure.
Select UPS will file EEI to generate EEIs using WorldShip.
Select File EEI Post Departure to use the AES to file an EEI electronically with the US Census Bureau after shipment departure. The US Census Bureau must preapprove the shipper, and you must provide an EIN from the shipper for the shipment. If you select this option, the EEI tab will not appear on the Customs Documentation tab in the Shipping window.
If you selected
the UPS will file EEI filing method, type the number of copies you
want to generate in the Number of Copies to Print box.
Note: This box is not available
for other filing methods.
If you selected
the UPS will file EEI filing method and want to print UPS World Ease
EEIs in a batch during close out, select the Batch Print World Ease
EEIs check box. If you select this check box, you will be prompted
during close out to print EEIs for all master shipments. EEIs will
not print during child shipment processing.
Note: This check box appears
only if you have a contract for UPS World Ease.
Choose how you want to handle Certificates of Origin (COs)
To generate
COs using WorldShip, select the Enable CO check box and type the number
of copies you want to generate in the Number of Copies to Print box.
Tip: If you want UPS to prepare and submit COs electronically,
select this check box. See Submit Paperless International
Documents to UPS.
If you do not want to generate COs using WorldShip, clear the appropriate check boxes.
To select lane preferences
for your international shipments, click the Lane Preferences button
under Paperless Preferences. Using the Lane Preferences window, select
either Paperless or Printed for each destination country. Depending
on the contracts available, the Paperless and Printed options may
appear for small package, Air Freight, or both small package and Air
Freight.
Note: The Lane Preferences button appears only if you have a
contract for Paperless Invoices.
Select the Save/Update Commodities check box to have the Save/Update Commodities on the Customs Documentation tab default as selected. Unselecting this check box on the Customs Documentation tab will only apply to the shipment being created at the time of selection.
Select the Automatic Duties/Taxes Estimate check box to automatically receive estimates for international shipments in History.
Tip: The estimated duties and taxes are saved in Shipment History, and the Duties and Taxes button in the Shipment History window becomes active only if you select this check box prior to processing the shipment with the selected shipper number.
