Do I need to supply an invoice?
AbeBooks bookseller members should supply buyers with an invoice. For most buyers within the UK one is not needed, but please ensure that for all international orders an invoice is included when the book is shipped. Even if AbeBooks processes the payment on your behalf, an invoice can be given from you directly to your trading partner, the buyer. You can use your own system to supply an invoice or you can use a feature in our free software HomeBase. Click here for information on installing HomeBase.
