What is a Commercial Invoice? 
Commercial-Invoice-Spanish-ThumbnailOnce the buyer and the seller agree upon the terms of the sale and the buyer has accepted the terms of the proforma invoice, the international transaction is ready to proceed. When the goods are ready to ship, the seller issues a commercial invoice.
The commercial invoice plays an important role in the export process. It lists the amount owed by the buyer to the seller and includes when and how payment must be made. The commercial invoice is the primary shipping document used by customs worldwide for commodity control and valuation. It provides important instructions to:
  • The freight forwarder.
  • U.S. and foreign customs.
  • The import broker.
  • The marine insurance company.
  • Both your bank and the buyer’s bank.

Because so many depend on the commercial invoice for information, it’s important that it’s filled out properly to avoid confusion and shipping delays.
