# Shipping details markup

Category: [E-Commerce SEO](https://seo-geo-glossary.com/en/glossary/category/e-commerce-seo/) › [Product data, feeds & Shopping](https://seo-geo-glossary.com/en/glossary/category/e-commerce-seo/product-data-feeds-shopping/) · Also known as: OfferShippingDetails, ShippingService

**Shipping details markup** is structured data that states shipping costs, delivery times and destinations in a machine-readable way. Google supports `OfferShippingDetails` on a product's offer and `ShippingService` on the organization.

## How does shipping details markup work?

`OfferShippingDetails` sits on the `Offer` and holds the terms for a specific product. Google requires `shippingRate`, `shippingDestination` and `deliveryTime`. The rate is given as a monetary amount with a currency.

`ShippingService` describes the standard shipping policy for most products. It is nested in the `Organization` type through `hasShippingService` and belongs on a single page that describes the shipping policy. Its only mandatory property is `shippingConditions`, which defines cost or delivery time for conditions like weight, order value or destination.

If shipping is defined in several places, Google applies this order, strongest first: the Content API for Shopping, settings in Merchant Center or Search Console, product-level markup, then organization-level markup. Google states that settings in Search Console take precedence over markup.

## Example

```json
"shippingDetails": {
  "@type": "OfferShippingDetails",
  "shippingRate": { "@type": "MonetaryAmount", "value": 4.90, "currency": "EUR" },
  "shippingDestination": { "@type": "DefinedRegion", "addressCountry": "DE" },
  "deliveryTime": {
    "@type": "ShippingDeliveryTime",
    "transitTime": { "@type": "QuantitativeValue", "minValue": 1, "maxValue": 3, "unitCode": "DAY" }
  }
}
```
