Hello, dear Chris! I think it's the exporter's job to write a proforma invoice but not yours'. Nomally, the proforma invoice has two main functions: 1.Used as a firm offer or an offer for reference 2. Facilitate the buyer get ready to import, such as get import permission 。 It usually contain these terms: the name of the products, quantity, prices, terms of payments, shipment terms and so on. Although the proforma invoice is much like a contract, but the seller has no contractual liability to the invoice he writes I hope this will help you. By the way, could i ask what products are you going to import? Maybe i can give you some concrete suggestions. please feel free to contact me if you need any help. chenjuns0321@126.com
