Form / Attachment / Pricing Sheet

This document provides guidance on Military Standard 129R (Mil-Std-129R) marking and shipping label requirements. It serves as a reference for vendors to ensure compliance with government shipping standards. The guidance is not exhaustive, and Mil-Std-129R itself takes precedence.

• Unit and Intermediate Container Marking: Details required information such as NSN, CAGE code, part number, nomenclature, quantity, contract/purchase order number, batch/lot number, shelf-life, and TCN number.
• Exterior Container Marking: Similar to unit containers but excludes item description. NSN, Purchase Order Number, and CAGE Code must be barcoded.
• Military Shipping Label (MSL): Specifies the required information for MSLs, including Transportation Control Number (TCN), Transportation Account Code (TAC), Ship To/POE, Priority, Project Code, Weight, Cube, Date Shipped, Piece Number, and 2D (PDF417) bar code.
• Packaging Requirements: References GSAM provisions and ASTM standards for commercial packaging, preservation, and packing. Specific requirements for hazardous materials and wood packaging material are also outlined.

Vendors must adhere to these marking and labeling requirements for all shipments to ensure smooth freight handling and compliance with government contracts. Failure to comply can lead to shipping delays and issues. The document highlights the importance of accurate shipping labels, especially the Transportation Control Number (TCN) for tracking.
