UPS Additional Features

Negotiated Rates
By default Starshipit will use UPS retail rates. If you have an agreement in place with UPS to have negotiated rates you can select Use Negotiated Rates from the advanced settings
International
If shipping internationally, make sure you configure your incoterms, export type and tax identification number from Settings > Couriers > UPS > Advanced 
NAFTA

You can configure settings for the NAFTA Certificate of Origin. This certificate is used by Canada, Mexico, and the United States including Puerto Rico, to determine if goods imported into their countries receive reduced or eliminated duty as specified by the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).

The NAFTA Certificate of Origin is attached to an invoice if the shipment is valued at greater than:
  • $1,000 USD and is being sent to Mexico - from Canada or the U.S.
  • $2,500 CAD and is being sent to Canada - from Mexico or the U.S.
  • $2,500 USD and is being sent to the U.S. - from Canada or Mexico.
Paperless
You can enable UPS paperless invoice for the commercial invoice and NAFTA CO documents by selecting this from the advanced settings. Note: you must also request UPS to enable paperless trade at their end. If these are enabled and working correctly, 'EDI' will show at the bottom-right of any paperless trade labels, or otherwise 'INV' will show.  
Declared Value
UPS charge additional fees if you specify the declared value for international shipments. This is a kind of insurance that they offer. If you would like to disable this insurance you can go to Settings > Couriers > UPS > Advanced > Tick Exclude Declared Value for International Shipments
