When to use a proforma invoice
- To ask for an advance before you ship or start work
- When the buyer needs a document to approve the purchase internally
- For exports, so the importer can arrange customs and payment
- To confirm prices and terms before the final tax invoice
Proforma invoice format
Use the same layout as your tax invoice with the title PROFORMA INVOICE, your bank details for the advance, and clear payment terms. Once the goods are delivered, issue the actual tax invoice with its own number.
Trinevia Billing prints your bank account, IFSC and UPI ID on the proforma so the customer can pay straight away.

Frequently asked questions
Is a proforma invoice a valid GST invoice?
No. A proforma invoice is only an offer; GST is charged on the tax invoice you issue later. That is why it is kept as a separate document type here.
Can I add bank details to the proforma?
Yes. Fill in Bank Details once and they print on every proforma and invoice.
Can I use it for exports?
Yes. Switch off the GST fields if they don't apply and add your own custom fields such as port of loading or Incoterms.
