Overview

Why New Zealand asks for a legalised commercial invoice

The commercial invoice records the seller, buyer, goods, HS codes, quantities, prices and delivery terms of a shipment. Importing authorities and banks use it for customs valuation, duty and payment. The exporter issues the commercial invoice on its own letterhead, signed and stamped by an authorised signatory.

Importers in Oceania occasionally ask for apostilled or legalised shipping documents, mainly for regulated goods.

Authorities, banks and business partners in New Zealand usually ask for a legalised commercial invoice for customs clearance and duty assessment, bank payment and letters of credit or import permits and product registration.

A commercial invoice issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. New Zealand accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

  2. Notarisation

    A notary in India verifies the signature on the commercial invoice or certifies the copy, which is the first stamp in the chain.

  3. Indian Chamber of Commerce

    An Indian Chamber of Commerce verifies your company and signatory and stamps the commercial invoice.

  4. MEA apostille

    The MEA adds its apostille, which is the final step for a Hague Convention country.

  5. Tracked return

    We courier the legalised document back by Blue Dart or another tracked courier, or you collect it from our Delhi office.

Avoid rejection

  • The invoice value and buyer details must match the certificate of origin exactly.
