 Managing international returns is a significant challenge in ecommerce as direct-to-consumer brands expand globally. Navigating varying customs regulations, shipping logistics, and costs makes handling returns across borders complex. However, maintaining customer satisfaction and delivering a seamless shopping experience is essential for success. That’s why Passport offers flexible solutions to simplify international returns, making it easier for brands to meet their customers’ expectations.

For businesses struggling to access new markets and process returns, Passport is the internationalization partner that enables effortless global expansion. As part of our Passport Shipping and Passport Global offerings, we provide two effective ways to facilitate returns.

  1. Our integrated partnerships with Loop and Corso allow end customers to initiate returns directly on your website.
  2. With our Summer 2024 update, brand partners can now generate international return labels for delivered shipments with just a few clicks on the Passport Portal

Here’s a closer look at how each solution works.
