Commercial invoice for Senegal: what and why
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.
Many African customs authorities and banks ask for legalised commercial invoices and certificates of origin, especially for shipments paid by letter of credit.
Companies dealing with Senegal are most often asked for a legalised commercial invoice during customs clearance and duty assessment, as well as for bank payment and letters of credit and 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. Senegal accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.
