What information is needed for a shipping label
Most labels need a ship-from address, ship-to address, package weight, and a carrier service. Dimensions may also be required for some services, and they help keep rates accurate. To reduce touchpoints, save common package setups and defaults, then reuse them across orders. That’s a simple way to keep data clean as you scale.

Shipping label FAQs for faster fulfillment
Can I create shipping label files without an order in ShipStation?
Yes. You can create a manual order or use the Rate Calculator to create a label when you don’t have an imported order. It’s helpful for one-off shipments, replacements, or B2B shipments.
Can ShipStation automate shipping label workflows ecommerce teams rely on?
Yes. You can build automation rules to assign carrier, service, package, and other settings. This helps automate the shipping label workflows ecommerce operations rely on for speed, especially when orders come from multiple channels.
How do I save time with automated label generation for repeat shipments?
Save presets for package types and shipping defaults, then apply rules based on tags, order items, or destination. You’ll spend less time making the same decisions and reduce rework when new staff join.
Does ShipStation support batch label printing for fulfillment teams?
Yes. You can batch-select orders, create labels together, and print them in a single run. This supports high-volume pick-pack-ship days and helps keep your station running smoothly.
Can I create shipping labels online instantly and still keep my brand front and center?
Yes. After you create the label, ShipStation can send branded tracking notifications and route shoppers to a branded tracking page. That means fewer “Where is my order?” messages and a smoother post-purchase experience.
