Document background
The Proforma Invoice is a crucial document in Danish and international business transactions, serving as a detailed quote or preliminary invoice before the final sale is completed. It is typically used for customs clearance, obtaining import licenses, applying for letters of credit, or providing detailed quotations to potential buyers. The document must comply with Danish legislation, including the Danish Sales Tax Act (Momsloven) and EU regulations, particularly for cross-border transactions. A Proforma Invoice includes comprehensive information about the seller, buyer, goods or services, pricing, delivery terms, and payment conditions. While not a demand for payment, it carries legal weight and must accurately represent the intended transaction details. This document is particularly important in international trade where it helps facilitate customs clearance and provides buyers with detailed information for decision-making and import planning.
