What is an export invoice?

An export invoice is the tax invoice a GST-registered business issues when it sells goods or services to a buyer outside India. Exports are zero-rated: you either export under a bond or Letter of Undertaking (LUT) without paying IGST, or pay IGST and claim it back as a refund.

The same invoice is used for customs clearance, the shipping bill and your GST refund, so its details must match those documents.

Export invoice format

An export invoice carries the endorsement "SUPPLY MEANT FOR EXPORT UNDER BOND OR LETTER OF UNDERTAKING WITHOUT PAYMENT OF INTEGRATED TAX" or "SUPPLY MEANT FOR EXPORT ON PAYMENT OF INTEGRATED TAX". It shows your name, address and GSTIN; a serial number and date; the buyer's name and address; the delivery address; the country of destination; and each item's HSN, quantity and value.

Most exporters also show their IEC, the port of loading, the shipping bill number and the value in the buyer's currency. This generator adds them when you fill them in.

Good to know

What is LUT in an export invoice?

A Letter of Undertaking lets you export without paying IGST. File it on the GST portal once each financial year before you export.

Do I charge GST on export invoices?

Not under LUT or bond: exports are zero-rated. If you export on payment of IGST, charge IGST and claim it back as a refund.

Can I make the invoice in dollars?

This invoice is in rupees, as GST needs. Add the dollar or other foreign-currency value and exchange rate in the foreign value field.

Is an export invoice the same as a commercial invoice?

They overlap. Customs and banks often call it a commercial invoice; under GST it must also carry the export endorsement and your GSTIN.

What is the HSN code length for exports?

Customs uses 8-digit ITC-HS codes, so use 8 digits on export invoices even if your domestic invoices use 4 or 6.

Is my data stored anywhere?

No. The export invoice is made in your browser and its details never leave your device.
