A proforma invoice is a preliminary document issued before the final sale — serving as a binding quote, an export declaration, or a pre-shipment commitment. It's used in international trade, customs clearance, client approvals, and advance payment requests.
Unlike a regular invoice, it clearly states: "This is not a final tax invoice" — protecting both the seller and buyer while establishing all commercial terms.
