Invoice essentials

• Seller and their EORI number
• Buyer and their EORI number
• Detailed description of goods with HS codes
• Origin of the goods for each HS code
• Gross and net weight for each HS code
• number of packaging of goods
• Delivery term
• Value and currency
• If the goods have their origin in the EU or UK, a preference phrase is required in the invoice so that no customs duty is levied – the exact wording of the preference phrase (which must be adhered to) is: "The exporter of the products covered by this document (EORI / Exporter Reference No. – add sender's EROI or REX number ) declares that, except where otherwise clearly indicated, these products are of... (UK or EU, choose one of the options ) preferential origin."

Please note – for invoice values above EUR 6,000, the REX number is always required
