Two-character code of a type of package from UN/ECE Recommendation 21, used in customs declarations, UN/EDIFACT and UBL documents, for example BX for box or CT for carton. Codes use uppercase letters and digits in any combination (BX, 1A, 43). Many other two-character codes have the same shape, such as country codes, so the field name is the evidence.
