1. Commercial Invoice:

   1. Language - the document must be in English language;

   2. Title - please make sure your Invoice Title states Commercial Invoice! We cannot accept documents titled anything else i.e. Proforma Invoice, Product Invoice, Order Details, Purchase Invoice etc.

   3. Consignee Details - please ensure your supplier includes the correct destination warehouse address (= CONSIGNEE) a) Sold to / Buyer / Consignee Address and b) Delivery to Address on the top of the Invoice. This is very important for customs. You can find all SHF Destination Warehouse Addresses here.

   4. Terms - the document must show that the shipping terms are FOB. Your supplier can state “INCOTERMS FOB” anywhere on the document.

   5. Description - each Invoice needs to include a detailed description of the goods. This description must be in plain English to allow easy identification and classification of the goods by the Customs Officials.

   6. HS Code/Commodity Code - the HS Code for your product must be stated on the Commercial Invoice. If you have a bonus product:

      1. Customs only wants to have a single HS code per line on the Invoice. You want to make sure your bonus item is either a part of the main product in a way that the HS code used for the main product would also work for the bonus.

      2. Or, if the product is so different you will separate it on the commercial invoice as two line items.
