Freight forwarders and logistics professionals use the GP-ID (Global Package Identification) to uniquely identify and track shipments and parcels within international supply chains. This standardized identifier allows carriers, courier services, and e-commerce platforms to exchange shipment data across borders and systems—particularly for customs clearance and supply chain visibility. It differs from local consignment numbers through its global validity and machine-readable format compatible with modern tracking and warehouse management systems.
