How long does a check take?
We confirm the turnaround when you send your label, and urgent checks can often be done quickly.
Can you check a label that’s already printed?
We can still check them. If we find problems, we’ll tell you which are urgent and which can wait for your next print run.
Is this the same as Trading Standards advice?
