What is a Proforma Invoice?

A proforma invoice (also written pro forma invoice) is a preliminary bill of sale sent to a buyer before the goods or services are delivered. It lists the products, quantities, agreed prices, taxes, and shipping terms so the buyer can review and approve the deal, arrange payment or financing, or apply for an import licence — without being a final demand for payment. Once the order is confirmed, the seller issues a commercial or tax invoice for the actual transaction.
