I recently got an email saying I was part of eBay’s new international shipping program where you mail packages to their hub and they take care of the rest. WRONG! I made my first international sale and when trying to purchase my label like I normally do, there is NO QR CODE option! In addition, I have to fill out a form with info for customs. I do not own a printer so really thought it would be easy to offer international shipping on all my listings but might stick to local if it’s gonna this complicated since I’m not really making a fortune with what I sell. Any advice?

Those sales I make go to a hub via USPS & that's it. No customs form no anything. It's all managed by ebay. Makes me wonder if you did not purchase shipping for that program or have opted into it?

Looks like you're using USPS First Class Package International and not Ebay International Shipping.

Right now, some of your listings offer USPS International, and some offer no options, so I am not sure....
I think you need to remove the other alternatives you have for international sales from your listings for ebay international to take affect..plus, you need to make sure you are opted in..

They emailed me saying I was automatically part of it. So I added international shipping to most of my listings. When I went to buy a label it had me fill out a form and then after purchase I didn’t get a QR code. I had to find a way to print it and then take it to the post office. Is that normal?

Oh I need to look at that then. I thought I had selected eBay shipping. Thanks

Oh I get it! So eBay automatically shows buyers eBay international shipping (since I am opted in) BUT I was confused and added USPS International thinking that I had to choose an option. I think the wording when creating a listing confused me. Thanks everyone!

Yup you’re right. I added USPS international thinking I had to. I’ll remove that thx
