Invoice Generator for Dropshippers
Dropshipping invoices to wholesale buyers must show landed cost components — buyers compare you against Alibaba and will unbundle your price anyway.
How dropshippers should structure their invoices
- Show product, fulfilment and shipping separately; a single landed price invites "why so expensive" objections.
- Returns and refunds must be their own line with the original order reference.
- For EU/UK B2B, IOSS or VAT number on the invoice is mandatory for customs clearance.
The invoice above already contains the line items most dropshippers bill for. Adjust the rates to your own, delete what does not apply, and add anything specific to your engagement.
What a dropshipper invoice must include
- A unique, sequential invoice number — never reuse or skip numbers.
- Your business name and address, plus your tax or registration number if you have one.
- The client's name and address, and a purchase order reference if they use one.
- Each service on its own line with quantity and rate, so the total is auditable.
- Tax shown separately with the rate, and the total clearly stated.
- Payment terms and the due date — not only in your contract.
Dropshippers invoicing questions
Do I need an invoice for each order?
For B2C, usually a receipt. For B2B or wholesale, yes — and it must match the customs declaration exactly.
How do I handle refunds?
Credit note referencing the original invoice number, never a negative line on a new invoice.
What about duties and taxes?
State DDP or DAP explicitly. Ambiguity here causes parcels to be held and refunded at your cost.
