Packing list
Also called: çeki listesi
A document detailing the contents of each package in a shipment, including numbers, marks, quantities, net and gross weights and dimensions. It lets customs and the receiver match packages to the invoice.
In practice
Inspections go faster when the packing list lets officers find a specific item without unloading the whole container.
