Yes. You can create international shipments with any carrier in ShipEngine that provides international services. Creating international shipments requires additional inputs, like the customs object in the label request.
Most carriers also require that the customs form (also referred to as a commercial invoice) be included with your international shipment, though some will submit this electronically. When customs forms are available to be printed, they will be included in the JSON response as form_download.
