Exporter details Should remain the same as today, e.g. the brand, third party logistics (3PL), or other relevant party. Global-e Local registration details In specific destinations (Norway, the UK, the EU (Cross-border), Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, and Malaysia – exact list confirmed during the project), Global-e is responsible for remitting taxes to local authorities. For orders below the threshold, Global-e’s local tax registration must be included on the commercial invoice and declared to the carrier. The relevant details for each destination will be provided separately to allow them to be stored in the relevant system as part of the integration.
Global-e’s IOSS number must NOT be displayed on the Commercial Invoices.
To determine when Global-e local registration details need to be declared, use: geLocalRegistrationClearance – A Boolean value indicating whether the order is tax collected. Importer and import type mention If shipping country ≠ Switzerland → “Private Import Mention” for B2C shipment; geCustomerTaxId – Customer Tax number provided at checkout (e.g. Brazil, Turkey). Else → importer details should have the mention “Business Importer”. Importer details for Switzerland will be communicated in a separate file. Shipper name / address Should remain the same as today, i.e. the brand, 3PL, or other relevant party. Currency geCustomerCurrencyCode Incoterm logic

Shopify Mapping
For brands / third party logistics (3PLs) relying on Shopify data to create the shipping documents related to Global-e orders, most of the additional information required is made available through the Shopify note_attributes, as detailed below.
While for standard orders the required note_attributes are added prior to the Shopify order status being updated to PAID (typically the trigger for export), for orders where no payment is taken (e.g. influencer orders, replacements) or those paid via Gift Cards, the additional data will only be added after the order is marked as PAID, requiring specific logic to be built as part of the order export process.
Exporter details Should remain the same as today, i.e. the brand, 3PL, or other relevant party. Global-e Local registration details Same destination scope as above. Global-e’s local tax registration must be included on the commercial invoice and declared to the carrier for orders below threshold.
Global-e’s IOSS number must NOT be displayed on the Commercial Invoices.
To determine when Global-e local registration details need to be declared, use: order.note_attributes [LocalRegistrationClearance] – Boolean value indicating whether the order is tax collected. Importer and import type mention If shipping country ≠ Switzerland → “Private Import Mention” for B2C shipment. Else → “Business Importer”. Importer details for Switzerland communicated in a separate file. Shipper name / address Should remain the same as today, i.e. the brand, 3PL, or other relevant party.

Exporter details Should remain the same as today, i.e. the brand, third party logistics, or other relevant party. Global-e Local registration details Same destination scope as the API and other platform mappings. Global-e’s local tax registration must be included on the commercial invoice and declared to the carrier for orders below the applicable threshold.
Global-e’s IOSS number must NOT be displayed on the Commercial Invoices.
To determine when Global-e local registration details need to be declared, use: Merchant.Order.ExporterDetails.LocalRegistrationClearance – Boolean value indicating whether the order is tax collected. Importer and import type mention If Merchant.ImporterDetails.ImporterType = 0 → “Private Import Mention” for B2C shipment; Merchant.Order.ImportDetails.CustomerTaxId. If Merchant.ImporterDetails.ImporterType = 1 → “Business Importer”. Importer details for Switzerland communicated in a separate file.
