# FEDEX: ERROR WHEN GENERATING A LABEL: INVALID CUSTOMS VALUE

You are trying to generate a label with the carrier Fedex but encounter the following error:

*Invalid Customs Value.*

 

This error can appear in 2 specific cases: 

1\) Customs value **not specified or equal to zero**: If the unit cost of an item is zero (€0 or $0), FedEx cannot generate the label.

✅**Solution**: 

 0).","type":"unordered-list-item","depth":1,"inlineStyleRanges":\[{"offset":45,"length":9,"style":"BOLD"}\],"entityRanges":\[\],"data":{}},{"key":"7n6ko","text":"Modifiez les prix si nécessaire (par exemple, ajoutez une valeur symbolique).","type":"unordered-list-item","depth":1,"inlineStyleRanges":\[\],"entityRanges":\[\],"data":{}}\],"entityMap":{}}"\>

- Make sure that each item has a  **non-zero value** (\> 0).
- Edit the prices if necessary (for example, add a symbolic value)

 ➡️ Also make sure that all the products in the order have an associated HS code

 

2\) Customs **value too low**: Some countries impose a minimum value for shipments.

*For example*: The value must be ≥ $1 for destinations such as:

- 🇦🇺 Australia
- 🇨🇦 Canada
- 🇨🇳 China

✅**Solution:** 

Check the rules of the destination country to ensure that the declared value meets the minimum thresholds.

 ➡️ Also make sure that all the products in the order have an associated HS code
