The commercial invoice is one of the most important documents in international trade and ocean freight shipping. It is a legal document issued by the seller(exporter) to the buyer(importer) in an international transaction and serves as a contract and a proof of sale between the buyer and seller. Commercial invoices are often used by Customs to determine the true value of goods when assessing duties.
