Label Requirements
-
Test Labels: Evri will provide you with a pre-determined list of addresses to use to create test labels. Send the test labels to our support team, and we will submit them to Evri for approval. We will notify you when the test labels are approved and you can start shipping!
-
Domestic Requirements: All domestic Evri shipments must have carrier insurance added with an insured value that is the same as the Order Total value.
Contact Evri to verify whether parcel insurance is part of your contract, as some Evri plans don't require insurance value information. If parcel insurance is in your contract, Evri requires the parcel value to properly validate insurance claims.

Courier Collection: Schedule Pickup |
You can create a label using either of Evri’s Courier Collection services (Evri Domestic or Evri Postable) available in ShipStation. Once you create a label, we automatically send a pickup request to Evri for the following business day. The collection cost will be included in the label fee. To change or cancel Courier Collection requests, you must contact ShipStation support. Cutoff time for collection is just past midnight. For example, if you need service for tomorrow, the latest time you can submit the collection request is by 00:59AM on 25/05/23. |

How to Troubleshoot or Resolve |
|---|---|
|
Error: For domestic shipments, insurance amount must be set to the parcel's value. |
What it means: Evri requires all domestic shipments to include a declared insurance value equal to the value of the order total. Without this value, Evri will send this error to ShipEngine instead of a label. What to do:
See Adding Insurance to a Shipment in our developer docs for more details. |
|
Error: Evri requires you to set up your EORI number with your Evri accounts manager. Please remove all tax identifiers from this shipment |
What it means: You will receive this error if you add your EORI number to Evri shipments in ShipEngine. What to do: Instead, you must provide your EORI number to your Evri account representative. It will then print on the appropriate documents provided through ShipEngine. |
