customs invoice

[Former Member]

Hi,

Is it possible to create customs invoice in Sap

if so HOW

[Lakshmipathi · Accepted solution]

Customs Invoice is nothing but a proforma invoice used to file with Customs b4 moving the goods from a manufacturing plant. Once this document is filed with Customs along with a Shipping Bill which would be prepared by Shipping Agent or Clearing Agent.

In SAP, we use F8 proforma document for this purpose.

thanks

1. whether customs invoice will be in actual customer currency or in INR

2. whether we need to mainatin no range similar to what we do for excise invoice( declaring no range to govt) -any such restrictions here in customs invoice

3. any legal rules regarding printing stationary (paper like excise invoice)

4. while doing exports customer will receive which invoice -customs invoice / ARE-1 document

5.even in case of ARE-1 whether no range needs to be declared to govt or wat.

1) Customs Invoice will be in Customer currency or foreign currency. Bcoz, you will be exporting to overseas countries where the foreign currency is not freely convertible, in such a situation, the foreign currency would be USD / Euro / JPY / GBP etc.,

2) Yes you need to maintain billing number range in VN01 and assign it in your F8 billing document type in VOFA

3) There will be no excise invoice in case of exports. To file with customs, you need to create export invoice, packing list and ARE-1

4) Customs Invoice which can also be a commercial invoice but not ARE-1 document

5) Yes ARE-1 number range needs to be declared to Central Excise authorities

thanks
