MAODANTONG GUIDES

Export document guides and worked examples

Learn when to use PI or CI, how to check packing weights and how to write clear quotation terms. Each guide connects to the corresponding worked example and document editor.

Proforma vs commercial invoice: which should you prepare?

Compare a proforma invoice and commercial invoice through a worked export example. Learn which figures to review when moving from a proposed order to the actual shipment.

How to make a proforma invoice for a proposed order

Prepare a PI with clear products, prices, payment milestones and validity. Follow a worked amount check, review bank details and manage revisions before exporting a PDF.

How to fill a commercial invoice from the actual sale

Fill an export commercial invoice from the actual sale. Check the parties, goods descriptions, quantities, currency and values, and reconcile the invoice with shipment paperwork.

How to make an export packing list with consistent row totals

Build a packing list from warehouse records. Separate pieces from cartons, enter row totals for net and gross weights and CBM, and avoid counting mixed cartons twice.

Write a clear export quotation with product specifications, pricing units, currency, validity, lead time and included costs. Follow a worked example and create your quotation online.
