How do I generate a MID code for U.S. import?

To generate a Manufacturers Identification code (MID code), you need to make sure your manufacturing supplier has provided their full business name and postal address.

Once you have all those details, you need to put together the MID code in the following order:

  1. Find the two-letter ISO code for your supplier's country e.g. GB for the United Kingdom, NL for the Netherlands and DE for Germany
  2. Take the first three letters of the manufacturer’s first and second name (if applicable)
  3. Take the highest digits (up to four) from the address line
  4. Take the first three letters of the manufacturer’s city name
