Pre-Dispatch Apparel QC Photo Checklist

Specify which photos, measurements and packing evidence your factory should provide before a custom apparel shipment.

Agree the evidence at quotation

Specify which garments, colours and sizes should be photographed and which points need measurement records. Attach the approved tech pack and sample version so the factory knows the comparison standard. Agree who will review the evidence and the decision deadline before dispatch.

Photograph workmanship and decoration

Request front and back images and close-ups of seams, closures, hems, labels, crest placement or embroidery. Include a ruler or measuring tape for the points the buyer has specified. A photo can show workmanship and placement, while fabric performance needs the corresponding agreed test evidence.

Capture labels and packing

Request images of care and size labels, barcode artwork if applicable, folding, the packed unit and carton marks. For sets, show that the required components are paired. Compare the visible SKU references and counts with the approved packing matrix.

Record and close discrepancies

List discrepancies by style, colour and size, with the relevant reference and corrective action. Ask for a recheck before release where needed. Keep the dispatch decision linked to the final packing list and relevant QC evidence so both parties can trace what was approved.

Prepare your buyer brief
