Creating a Shipment Without an Invoice: For EU Countries

Parcels within the country and between EU countries where Nova Post is represented can be sent without an invoice.

 For delivery to the United Kingdom and beyond, an invoice is mandatory.

A waybill (WB) for shipments without an invoice can be created using the same method as for international shipments. In the Nova Post API the method for creating a shipment is universal for both local and international shipments, and it easily adapts to the needs of each type of delivery. The difference lies only in the fields required for completion.

For local deliveries and deliveries between EU countries, the following fields are sufficient:

• 1
  status: This field defaults to "ReadyToShip", which is the only value that can be specified when creating the ID.
