Starting January 21st, 2018, the USPS is no longer allowing First Class Mail International (FCMI) service using the Large Envelope/Flat package type to ship anything but Documents. For any content type other than Documents, the USPS will now require shipments to use the package type of Package.
For more details on the USPS change, including what does and does not meet the criteria for a document,see links below.
This change in package requirements will result in a shipping rate increase from $7-$12 per package.
