How to Reprint a USPS Shipping Label

USPS shipping labels can be reprinted as long as they haven't expired (typically 30 days from purchase). The exact reprint path depends on where you bought the label — USPS Click-N-Ship, eBay Seller Hub, Etsy, or a third-party tool. Reprinting does not cost extra postage — you're just regenerating the same label.

Step-by-step

  1. 1

    Open USPS Click-N-Ship

    Go to usps.com/ship/online and sign in to the account you used to buy the label. Navigate to Shipping History → Shipping Label Status.

  2. 2

    Find the label

    The label list shows everything purchased in the last 6 months. Find the specific shipment by date, destination, or tracking number.

  3. 3

    Click 'Reprint'

    Next to the label, click the Reprint option. USPS generates a fresh PDF — same tracking number, same postage paid. No extra charge.

  4. 4

    Print the new label

    Download or print the PDF directly. Apply to your package and drop off at any USPS location. The label is still valid as long as it's within the 30-day window.

Good to know

  • Labels older than 30 days cannot be reprinted — you'll need to refund and repurchase.
  • If you bought the label through a third party (eBay, Etsy, Pirate Ship), reprint through their interface instead of USPS.com.
  • If you already scheduled a USPS pickup, you can reprint without affecting the pickup schedule — the tracking number is the same.

Frequently asked questions

Can I reprint a USPS label that's already been scanned?
Yes, but once USPS has scanned the package as Accepted, the label is in use. Reprinting at that point gives you a duplicate; it does not generate a new label. If the original got damaged, reprint and apply over the damaged one (or discard the damaged package and re-ship with the new copy).
Does reprinting cost extra?
No. USPS doesn't charge for reprints. You already paid the postage; the reprint is just regenerating the same label document.
How long can I reprint a USPS label?
Up to 30 days from the purchase date. After that, the label expires and cannot be reprinted — you'd need to refund and buy a new one.
Can I reprint on different paper size?
Yes. The reprinted PDF is the same label; you can print on 4×6 thermal or letter paper depending on your printer. The scanner reads the barcode regardless.
