As per recent circulars from the GST Council and Customs authorities, businesses are reminded to ensure that all three documents (e-invoice, commercial invoice, and shipping bill) are consistent with each other to avoid queries or discrepancies. The guidelines emphasize:

Consistency Across Documents: The details in the e-invoice must match those in the commercial invoice and shipping bill. Any mismatch can lead to queries from customs or GST authorities.
Timely Reporting: Invoices should be reported within the stipulated time frames to avoid penalties or issues during audits. The IRP does not impose a specific time window for reporting but encourages timely submissions.
Documentation Standards: All invoices must adhere to the formats prescribed under GST rules, ensuring that all mandatory fields are filled correctly.
Ensure that your e-invoice serves as the basis for both your commercial invoice and shipping bill. Consistency across these documents is crucial for compliance with GST and customs regulations.
