What is an air waybill?
An air waybill, or AWB (also known as waybill and airbill), is more commonly known as your FedEx shipping label and contains all of the package information as well as its barcoding and the 12-digit number used to track your shipment on its journey. FedEx does offer paper air waybills to create a shipment, but did you know that FedEx online shipping is available for most domestic and international shipment types* and can help your business in several ways?
Benefits of online shipping include:
- It’s simple, efficient, and allows for faster processing of shipments. You can create a shipment label online with the ability to save recipients’ addresses and information in your account to help you streamline and create labels faster.
- It provides visibility. You can track the status of each shipment, and you don’t have to wait for a paper air waybill to be entered before you can start tracking.
- It’s more accurate. Since your shipment’s data is digitally transmitted through our system, drivers and billers don’t always have to interpret handwriting on a paper air waybill. This can significantly decrease invoice errors and delivery confusion.
- It increases security by masking account numbers and decreasing fraudulent use of account numbers.
- It’s contact-free. With no-contact pickups, drivers can just scan your shipment and go. This can shorten pickup times.
- It empowers our customers to make more sustainable shipping choices.
*Some business needs may still require the use of a manual paper air waybill. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your account executive or customer service.
