Based on the proforma invoice the buyer can decide on any changes or propose a price negotiation, or early delivery date. The buyer needs to confirm and agree to all the details mentioned in the Proforma invoice. Once you receive the confirmation you can work towards the sale of goods or services and issue a final tax invoice.
