The invoice and the officer
5 September 2009
A short lesson in customs, free for my readers.
- An invoice with every price exactly right is a problem. They do not believe it.
- An invoice with every price half is also a problem. They believe it, but they ask you to pay.
- An honest invoice with one small mistake that they can find themselves is the best. They find it, they are happy, you pay a small sum, everybody goes home.
I learned this in three years and a lot of money. Tell your daughters.
