What actually changed, and when

Only entries that alter what a page tells you appear here. Restyling, rebuilding and re-deploying do not, because a changelog that records builds is a changelog nobody reads. Each entry names the scope that moved and the pages affected.

  1. 2026-09-30 · Scope change

    Fee structure, agent side

    The service fee is recorded as tiered by order size rather than as a single percentage. The effective rate now falls as an order grows, which was not previously the case. No rate was published here before or after; only the basis changed.

  2. 2026-09-30 · Scope change

    Domestic leg charging unit

    The domestic leg is charged per seller shipment rather than per order. A haul assembled from three sellers therefore carries three domestic legs, which was not represented in earlier guidance.

  3. 2026-09-30 · Addition

    Link shape distribution

    The index desk now reports the distribution of link shapes across entries, so a reader can see how many addresses are full marketplace addresses and how many are short addresses before pasting one into an order form.

  4. 2026-07-31 · Content change

    Australia destination page

    The quarantine section was expanded from a paragraph into identification-and-response form, and a note was added on the ninety-day window for unclaimed postal imports. No threshold figure changed.

  5. 2026-06-30 · Scope change

    Tax identifier request timing

    A structural change was recorded in which a tax identifier request moved from after arrival to before departure on some lines. This changes the preparation order rather than the tax itself.

  6. 2026-06-30 · Correction

    Domestic leg and handling presentation

    Two line items recorded separately were found to be charged on identical bases, which implied a distinction that did not exist. They are now presented as one line item.

  7. 2026-06-30 · Retirement

    Rehearsal shipping as a standing service

    Rehearsal shipping was recorded as a service line item and is no longer presented as one, because availability varies by warehouse and we could not confirm it as a standing line. The packing checklist still covers rehearsal as a practice.

  8. 2026-06-30 · Retirement

    Insurance charge basis

    The insurance line was recorded as a percentage of declared value. The basis appeared to vary by category and no single rule could be established, so the figure was removed rather than approximated. The insurance decision write-up remains.

  9. 2026-03-31 · Scope change

    Volumetric divisor recording unit

    Divisors were previously recorded per carrier. Two services under one brand were observed to publish different divisors, so recording moved to per service. This is a scope correction that changes estimated billed weight.

  10. 2026-03-31 · Scope change

    Restricted goods scope unit

    Restricted-goods lists are published per service rather than per carrier. The check that matters is therefore against the service being booked at the moment of booking, not against the carrier in general.

  11. 2026-03-31 · Retirement

    Coupon and voucher tracking

    Coupon tracking was retired as a category. In a sample of twenty publicly listed codes, nineteen followed a mechanical naming pattern and all twenty carried the same no-public-expiry note; none resolved against a checkout total. No code is published anywhere on this site, and the method page explains the test.

  12. 2025-12-31 · Addition

    Baseline snapshot published

    The first snapshot was published, recording how each fee line was initially characterised and which entries were known at the time to be too coarse. It is kept unedited so that later corrections remain auditable.

Two conventions are worth stating. A change to a figure's basis is recorded as a scope change even when no number moved, because a basis change alters your total. A correction is recorded separately from a content change, because a correction means something here was wrong rather than incomplete.

Outbound links to kabosheet.com may earn this desk a referral credit. It does not change what we write, what we measure, or what we mark as unverified.
