Transport / Transportation / Shipping
Beskrivelse av innholdet i en forsendelse. I huet mitt svever det en rekke alternativer: fraktbrev, fraktseddel, pakkseddel, følgeseddel. Er det noen med handelserfaring som vet forskjellen, og som vet (altså: vet) hva som eksakt oversetter 'shipping description'?

forsendelsesinformasjon / -beskrivelse
Jeg tenkte først på frakt måte, men følgende tekst gir en litt annen kontekst og vinkel.
Sections 172.200 through 172.205 explain how the Basic Shipping Description must appear on the shipping paper, and under what circumstances it is necessary to supplement the basic description.
The complete shipping description is: "Waste corrosive liquid, acidic, organic, n.o.s. (Phosphoric Acid), 8, UN3265, PG II, RQ (D002)."

Comment: "Siden det var litt uenighet her,
har jeg tatt kontakt med samferdsels-
departementet, og de sier at det ikke
finnes noe offisielt navn på denne
gruppen av forsendelsesopplysninger
for farlig gods, som består av
varenavn, fareklasse, UN-nummer
(identifikasjonsnummer), pakningsgruppe
(packing group) og mengdeopplysninger,
så det later til at vi kan kalle det
forsendelsesopplysninger eller
fraktopplysninger for farlig gods."

Pakkseddel
Shipping description is the American English term for description of the contents of a consignment, called an advice note in British English.Pakkseddel is the Norwegian equivalent of this. The other terms you mention are more to do with documents sent separately, invoices, orders etc. See the link below. Hope this helps!

The shipping description is sent with the consignment so the recipient knows what has been sent when it arrives. It is most often attached to the outside of the package , and can so be read by the recipient before opening the package.
