## Updates from Shippo
### 2026-10-16 02:35 UTC: investigating
Hi Team, we are currently observing an elevated error rate on USPS's Transaction API. Label generation for International, Military, and U.S. Territory shipments will be unavailable; domestic label generation is not impacted. We have reached out to USPS and are actively monitoring the situation. We will provide a further update as soon as we receive one from the carrier.

From the builder: does your app depend on Shippo? [Sazabi](https://www.sazabi.com/?utm_source=down-guide&utm_medium=markdown&utm_content=shippo) detects problems in your own logs without hand-written monitors, and you can ask it in plain language which errors mention Shippo.
