Document background
The Consular Invoice For Export is a fundamental document in Malaysian international trade operations, required by customs authorities and foreign consulates for specific export transactions. This document serves as an official certification of the exported goods' details, including their value, origin, and specifications. Under Malaysian trade regulations, it must be prepared accurately and include all required information for customs clearance and compliance purposes. The document is particularly important for exports to countries that maintain strict import documentation requirements, as it helps prevent undervaluation of goods and ensures compliance with both Malaysian export regulations and the importing country's trade requirements. The Consular Invoice must be verified and legalized by the consulate or embassy of the destination country in Malaysia before shipment.
