A delivery note — known as an albarán in Spanish-speaking countries, bon de livraison in French, and Lieferschein in German — is a commercial document that accompanies a shipment and provides a detailed list of the goods being delivered. It serves as proof that the carrier delivered the specified items to the recipient at a particular time and location. Unlike an invoice, the delivery note does not state prices or payment terms; its primary function is to confirm the physical transfer of goods from seller to buyer.

Delivery notes typically include: sender and recipient information, delivery date and time, a detailed itemized list of products (with quantities, SKUs, and descriptions), package counts, any special handling instructions, and a signature block for the recipient to acknowledge receipt. In many logistics workflows, the signed delivery note — also called a POD (Proof of Delivery) — is the trigger for invoicing. Until the delivery note is signed and processed, the shipment cannot be considered complete, making accurate and timely delivery note processing essential for cash flow.
