Order confirmation

The accepted quotation is confirmed so both sides work from one agreed commercial record.

Commercial invoice

Payment and invoicing

A paper trail purchasing teams can check at every step.

Vessel Core OÜ is an Estonian private limited company that supplies marine engine-room spare parts through a structured RFQ process. Every order moves along the same documented route: a written quotation, an order confirmation that fixes what was accepted, and a commercial invoice that repeats the same references. Because the issuer is an EU-registered company, each document can be checked against public registers rather than taken on trust.

The commercial invoice carries the full company identifiers, so supplier verification can be run before any payment is released. The registry code and VAT number shown on the invoice can be compared with the official Estonian register and the EU VAT validation service; the company verification page collects those due-diligence routes in one place.

Document flow

From quotation to commercial invoice, step by step.

Each stage of the flow leaves a record the buyer can file, so the commercial basis of an order stays visible from the first RFQ to the final payment.

01

Quotation

The quotation sets out prices, the applicable VAT treatment and the payment details for that specific request. Nothing commercial is promised generically; what applies is stated in writing at quotation stage.

02

Order confirmation

When the buyer accepts, the quotation becomes an order confirmation. Both sides then work from one agreed record of items, quantities, references and the commercial basis.

03

Commercial invoice

The invoice is issued by Vessel Core OÜ and repeats the agreed items and references. It is the document a purchasing team files, checks and pays against.

04

Company identifiers

Legal name, registry code 17028043, VAT number EE102773714 and the registered Tallinn address appear on the invoice, so the issuer can be verified in official registers before payment.

05

VAT treatment

The VAT treatment that applies depends on the buyer's situation, including where the buyer is established and VAT-registered. The applicable treatment is shown on the quotation and repeated on the invoice.

06

Payment details and terms

Payment details and terms are confirmed at quotation stage for each request rather than published as a general rule. The invoice follows what the quotation already stated.

07

RFQ reference on every line

Invoice line items are tied to the RFQ reference, so each line can be traced back to the request and the quotation it answers. Descriptions and quantities match the accepted offer.

08

Records for audit

A clean EU paper trail supports purchasing department files, owners' audits and the records technical management companies keep for the vessels they run.

Before releasing payment

Checks a purchasing team can run before releasing payment.

None of these checks need information beyond the documents themselves and public registers. If anything does not line up, the quotation reference makes the question easy to raise with the RFQ desk.

Payment and invoicing FAQ

Short answers for purchasing teams.

What company details appear on a Vessel Core invoice?

Each commercial invoice is issued by Vessel Core, an Estonian private limited company, and carries the legal name, registry code 17028043, VAT number EE102773714 and the registered address in Tallinn. These identifiers let a purchasing team verify the supplier in official registers before any payment is released.

How is VAT handled on marine spare parts invoices?

The applicable VAT treatment depends on the buyer's situation, including where the buyer is established and registered for VAT. The treatment that applies to a specific order is shown on the quotation and then repeated on the commercial invoice, so the buyer sees the same basis at both stages.

When are payment details and terms confirmed?

Payment details and terms are confirmed in writing at quotation stage for each specific request rather than published as a general promise. The order confirmation and the commercial invoice then repeat what was agreed, so the paper trail stays consistent from RFQ to payment.
