  • To make it even easier for customers and businesses to send items abroad, Royal Mail has also launched important enhancements to its Despatch Manager Online system which will improve UK and International shipping and labelling processes

    • Specific language characters for international shipments labels, e.g. Chinese, Japanese and Cyrillic
    • Ability to produce customs documentation for non-European shipments including CN22/CN23 declaration labels and commercial invoices
