About the Import Invoice Generator
An import invoice is one you receive rather than send, and the number that matters is not on it: the landed cost. What you actually paid for the goods is the supplier’s price plus freight, plus insurance, plus customs duty on the customs value, plus any import tax you cannot reclaim, plus clearance and handling — spread across the lines in the right proportion.
This builder records the supplier’s invoice and works that out. Enter the goods value, the Incoterm, the freight and insurance, and the duty rate, and it builds the customs value the way most authorities do — CIF, or FOB depending on the country — applies duty, applies import tax on the duty-inclusive value, and shows the landed cost per line and per unit.
That per-unit landed cost is the figure you price from. Working from the supplier’s price alone is how an importer discovers, six months in, that a product has been selling at a loss.

Frequently asked questions
The total cost of getting a product to your warehouse: the purchase price, freight, insurance, customs duty, non-recoverable import tax, clearance fees and handling. It is what the goods actually cost you.
Usually the transaction value adjusted to a defined delivery point. Most countries use CIF — cost, insurance and freight to the border — while the United States generally uses FOB, the value at the port of export.
Only if you cannot reclaim it. A VAT-registered importer normally reclaims import VAT, so it is a cash-flow cost rather than a cost of goods. Duty is never reclaimable and always belongs in landed cost.
By value is the simplest and most common. By weight or volume is more accurate when a shipment mixes heavy cheap goods with light expensive ones. Say which method you used and stay consistent.
