What should be on a shipping invoice?

A shipping invoice should contain essential details to facilitate a seamless transaction between freight carriers and shipper customers.  A shipping invoice is also commonly referred to as a ‘bill of lading’ in the freight and shipping industry.  A shipping invoice or billing of lading is a legally binding contract between the freight carrier and shipper.  A shipping invoice is seen as a shipping receipt when the goods arrive at the shipment’s final designation.     

A freight invoice should have the following sections and items:  

    1. Header – Add your business name, logo, contact information, email address, and website.
    2. Recipient information – Enter the recipient’s details, including name, address, email, and contact information. If applicable, include their purchase order number or any other reference number provided by the recipient.

    3. Assign a unique invoice number 

    4. Invoice issue date 

    5. Invoice payment due date 

    6. Itemized list of cargo – Add a detailed list of the shipped goods or services in the cargo including description, quantity and if applicable, estimated value 

    7. List shipping services with prices – Itemize shipping charges or additional fees involved in shipment.  Calculate the subtotal of all items.

    8. Shipment’s final destination

    9. Shipping Terms – Specify shipping terms including whether the shipment is FOB (Free on Board) and any other relevant logistics information.  

    10. Taxes and Discounts: Specify any applicable taxes, such as sales tax or value-added tax (VAT), and include them in the invoice total. If offering discounts, clearly state the discount amount or percentage.

    11. Total Amount Due: Calculate the total amount due by adding the subtotal, shipping charges, taxes, and deducting any discounts.

    12. Payment Instructions: Provide clear instructions on how and where to make the payment. Include details such as your preferred payment methods, bank account information, and any payment deadlines.

    13. Terms and Conditions: Include any relevant terms and conditions, such as insurance, liability disclaimers, or warranty information.

    14. Contact Information: Reiterate your contact information and encourage the recipient to reach out with any questions or concerns
