Frequently Asked Questions

How do I create a pro forma invoice?

The easiest way to create pro forma invoices is to use a free proforma invoice template. Proforma invoice templates by FreshBooks offer a quick and easy solution for professional proforma invoicesā€”all you need to do is download the template and fill in the fields to create your unique pro forma invoice template.

How long is a proforma invoice valid for?

The validity time of a proforma invoice varies, but some common terms are 30, 60, or 90 days from the pro forma invoice due date. FreshBooks invoicing software includes features like scheduling reminders so you can automatically prompt clients to follow up on outstanding invoices.

Does a proforma invoice need an invoice number?

Since a proforma invoice is a preliminary bill rather than an official invoice, it doesnā€™t need to include an invoice number. Instead, once the proforma invoice has been approved and you send the follow-up commercial invoice and payment instructions, you should include the invoice number on that final invoice.Ā Ā 

Can a proforma invoice be used for customs purposes?

A proforma invoice can be used to estimate the cost of customs fees, but youā€™ll still need to send the final invoice afterward. FreshBooks invoicing software makes it easy to convert estimates into final invoices, so you donā€™t need to make multiple invoices.Ā Ā 

What information should be included on a proforma invoice?

A proforma invoice should include all the details of the proposed jobā€”goods and services rendered, total cost, payment terms, client information, and business details. You should also include how long these prices and services are available so that your client understands when they must approve the proforma invoice and move the contract forward.Ā
