Why Use PostNord for International Shipping?
PostNord is a trusted shipping carrier across the Nordic region and offers reliable international delivery services through its global logistics network. For WooCommerce merchants, integrating PostNord directly with the store eliminates much of the manual work involved in international shipping.
Using the PH PostNord Shipping Plugin for WooCommerce with Print Label allows you to:
- Manage international shipments directly from WooCommerce.
- Generate carrier-compliant shipping labels.
- Automatically generate customs documents for eligible shipments.
- Reduce manual data entry during order fulfillment.
- Streamline international shipping operations from a single dashboard.
Whether you’re shipping apparel, electronics, sporting goods, automotive parts, or handmade products, automating your international shipping workflow saves time and reduces fulfillment errors.
How to Set Up PostNord International Shipping in WooCommerce
WooCommerce doesn’t provide built-in support for PostNord international shipping. The PH PostNord Shipping Plugin for WooCommerce with Print Label lets you configure international shipments directly from your WooCommerce dashboard.
Before configuring international shipping, install the plugin and connect it to your PostNord account. If you haven’t completed the initial configuration, refer to the WooCommerce PostNord Shipping plugin setup guide.
Configure Your Products for International Shipping
Before creating international shipments, make sure every WooCommerce product contains the required shipping information.
Update each product with:
- Weight
- Dimensions
- HS Code (where applicable)
- Country of Manufacture
Providing complete product information helps ensure customs information is generated correctly for international shipments.
Configure International Shipping Settings
After you configure the products, open the PostNord plugin settings and configure your international shipping preferences. Once configured, these settings are automatically used whenever an eligible international shipment is created.
Generate Shipping Labels and Customs Documents
When you receive an international order, open the WooCommerce order and generate the shipment using the plugin.
The plugin automatically creates:
- PostNord shipping label
- CN22 or CN23 customs declaration (where applicable)
- Commercial Invoice (where required)
This removes the need to prepare customs documents manually and helps ensure shipments are ready for international dispatch.
