# Sample Commercial Invoice

In order to clear your shipment quickly and efficiently, our customs team needs a complete and accurate [commercial invoice](https://www.flexport.com/help/commercial-invoice-packing-list/). 

Here's an example of a complete commercial invoice, with required elements circled (there's a legend at the bottom explaining each requirement):

![Annotated sample commercial invoice with nine numbered callouts identifying supplier, importer, invoice number, product, quantity, values and country of origin](https://cdn.sanity.io/images/ynj1yl20/development/3eb9d1659010b37bea2389ec6f38eedefb65ac8d-816x1056.png)
