Under this basis the invoice is only the starting point. LandedGrid uses your Incoterm to decide which transport costs are inside the price, then adds or removes them, and adds packing, selling commissions, assists and royalties where you report them. If the sale is between related parties or there is no sale, the transaction value method may not be available and the calculation stops at “valuation review required”.
