FAQ
Commercial Invoice validation — common questions
How do I check a commercial invoice for errors?
Verify the mandatory fields are present (exporter, importer, HS code, quantity, unit price, currency, Incoterm), that line amount equals quantity × unit price, that net weight does not exceed gross weight, and that values match the packing list and B/L. This free validator runs those checks for you.
What is the most common commercial invoice mistake?
Inconsistency — values, quantities, or weights that don't match across the commercial invoice, packing list, and bill of lading. That mismatch is the leading cause of customs delays.
Does CargoFide validate documents automatically?
Yes — CargoFide's Document Validation & Intelligence Engine (DVIE) reads your documents with OCR and cross-checks them against each other, catching discrepancies before submission. This page is a free, simpler client-side check.
