What is a proforma invoice?

A proforma invoice is a price estimate in invoice form that you send before a sale is final. Companies, schools and government offices in Nigeria often need one to get payment approved or to open a purchase order. It lists exactly what the customer will get and what it will cost, but it is not a demand for payment and not a receipt.

Proforma invoice vs invoice vs quotation

• Quotation: "Here's my price" — for the customer to compare and decide.
• Proforma invoice: "Here's exactly what you'll be billed" — for the customer to approve and arrange payment.
• Invoice: "Please pay" — sent once the sale is confirmed.

What to put on a proforma invoice

• Your business name, phone number and the words "Proforma Invoice".
• The customer or company name, a proforma number and date.
• Each item with quantity and price in Naira, and the total.
• Your bank details, so payment can be arranged once it's approved.
