Export Quote/The Proforma Invoice
Preparing a detailed quotation to your foreign buyer upfront can reduce significant costs and challenges later when shipping and invoicing the goods.
Why this matters to your business
Identifying the responsibilities of the seller and buyer during the quoting phase can significantly reduce the risk of having to pay unexpected transportation, storage, and other costs down the road, and speed up the payment process.
- Clearly state the Incoterms® Rule to be used so parties know their costs, risks, and responsibilities
- If using a prepayment or Letter of Credit payment term, details on the Proforma help the buyer communicate with their bank.
- Providing a six-digit tariff classification (Schedule B/HTS) during the quoting phase can help the buyer calculate import duties and taxes
Who should watch this webinar
- International sales, marketing, and customer service staff responsible for preparing price quotations to foreign buyers.
- Logistics and credit staff that support pricing, payment terms, and freight cost calculations.
