📬
What’s new?
You can now retrieve all tracking numbers linked to a single parcel via API v3. This covers cases where a shipment gets relabeled and receives an additional tracking number.
💡
Why it matters
You can keep tracking updates accurate even when a carrier changes the tracking number during the delivery process. This helps prevent missing delivery events when your system relies on tracking data.
ℹ️
Good to know
This applies to API v3 responses and includes all tracking numbers received from carriers.
📬
What’s new?
When you enter parcel dimensions, you can now get an estimate of the DPD Non-Standard Packaging (NSP) surcharge. This applies when any of the following is true:
  • the length is over 130 cm
  • the diagonal is over 130 cm
  • the weight is over 20 kg
You'll see which NSP category (A, B, C, D) you fall into and the estimated surcharge amount. (Note: this covers dimension- and weight-based NSP triggers only - surcharges for irregular shape or manual handling can't be predicted from dimensions alone.)
💡
Why it matters
You can spot potential NSP surcharges before you ship, so you avoid surprises later on your carrier invoice.
🚀
How to use it
  1. Enter your parcel dimensions (and weight) when creating or editing a shipment.
  2. Check the price breakdown to see the NSP category and estimated surcharge.
ℹ️
Good to know
This is available in the Edit Order View, New Shipment Form, Pack & Go, Shipping Prices page, and the API v3 shipping options endpoint.
📬
What’s new?
You can now request a proof of delivery (POD) for eligible Colissimo shipments in France. POD retrieval is available in Sendcloud panel and via API v3.
💡
Why it matters
You can get delivery proof without going to the Colissimo portal or contacting our customer service team, making it easier to handle claims and customer questions from one place.
🚀
How to use it
  • In the panel: Open a delivered parcel’s detail view, click the
    “Customer Service”
    button, and click
    “Request proof of delivery (POD)”.
  • Via API: Use the
    “Retrieve a parcel document”
    endpoint in API v3 and request
    proof-of-delivery
    . See our API docs here: https://sendcloud.dev/api/v3/parcel-documents/
ℹ️
Good to know
  • POD retrieval is enabled per carrier and currently available for Colissimo only.
  • A POD may also not be available if the carrier shipping product doesn’t support it or if it’s past the carrier’s retention period.
📬
What’s new?
You can now add an optional PO Number to your invoices. There’s a new PO Number field on the Addresses page under Invoice > Business Details. If you fill it in, the PO Number appears on your invoices; if you leave it empty, your invoices stay the same as before.
💡
Why it matters
You can match invoices to the right internal order or budget more easily when your finance team requires a PO Number. This reduces manual work when processing invoices in your accounting workflow.
🚀
How to use it
  1. Go to Addresses.
  2. Open Invoice > Business Details.
  3. Enter your PO Number (you can edit it anytime).
📬
What’s new?
You can now download a more compact PDF version of your invoice from the Invoice page. The download options have been moved to the main Invoice page, and both the new and old PDF formats are currently available.
💡
Why it matters
Smaller, clearer PDF invoices are easier to review and share, and can help avoid issues with tools that struggle with very large files (like some accounting systems or OCR scanning).
🚀
How to use it
  1. Go to the Invoice page.
  2. Use the download option on the main Invoice page.
  3. Choose the new compact PDF (or download the old format if needed).
ℹ️
Good to know
For now, invoice emails still include the old PDF version, in the near future we will be deprecating this PDF template.
📬
What’s new?
You can now download an Excel (XLSX) file of your invoice details. Go to your Billing section and hover over the different invoice download options.
💡
Why it matters
You can open your invoice details directly in Excel without running into CSV formatting issues.
ℹ️
Good to know
The XLSX download option is only available for invoices created after this release.
📬 What's new?
The Ecwid integration now imports the Post Number (also known as a PO Box number with some carriers) for out-of-home deliveries. When a buyer selects a pickup point that requires a Post Number, it's captured in the service point picker and passed through to Sendcloud as
to_post_number
.
💡 Why it matters
Certain carriers, such as DHL for Packstation deliveries, require a Post Number to deliver to an out-of-home location. Without it, label creation for these orders would fail. Ecwid merchants can now fulfill these orders without running into this error.
ℹ️ Good to know
This applies specifically to the Ecwid integration. No merchant configuration is needed - the Post Number field now appears automatically in the service point picker when required.
📬
What’s new?
You can now ship with your own GLS contract from four additional countries: Denmark, Ireland, Luxembourg, and Poland.
💡
Why it matters
You can use your existing GLS rates and contract setup when shipping from these locations.
ℹ️
Good to know
If you have a billing address located in a non-Euro country, Sendcloud will invoice you in Euro.
📬
What’s new?
You can now see an estimate of dimensional surcharges on the Shipping Prices page. Enter the parcel weight and dimensions, then open the price breakdown to view the estimated dimensional surcharge.
💡
Why it matters
You can compare shipping options with more cost transparency before creating a label. This helps you avoid unexpected surcharge costs later (for example, at label creation or on the invoice).
🚀
How to use it
  1. Go to the Shipping Prices page.
  2. Enter your parcel weight and dimensions.
  3. Open a price breakdown to see the dimensional surcharge estimate.
📬
What's new?
You can now calculate import duties and taxes for international shipments with a single API call. The endpoint returns a full breakdown of duty amounts, taxes, and total landed cost in real time.
💡
Why it matters
You can show accurate cross-border costs upfront and avoid unexpected charges at delivery for your customers. This is especially helpful if you ship internationally at scale or build your own shipping flows via the API.
🚀
How to use it
ℹ️
Good to know
This is available as a paid pilot, billed per API call via the add-on system. Currently in closed beta - reach out to your customer success manager to request enrollment.
