Can you give me the invoice?

能不能给我张发票？

----------------------------------------------------------------------
　　常听到有人在问发票这个字的英文怎么讲，就是“invoice”这个字啦。只可惜在美国买东西一般都只给收据（receipt），害我们少了很多对发票中大奖的乐趣。只有在买大件的东西，如汽车、保险时，他们才会给你所谓的发票invoice。（本句选自《小笨霖英语笔记本》）

例句：
　　The manufacturer invoiced our company for two typewriters.
　　制造厂家给我们公司开了一张两台打字机的发票。
　　（invoice作及物动词，就是“开发票”的意思）

I think receipt is a more commonly used than invoice.
invoice is more a document or a contract than a just a receipt.

Invoice is different from a receipt,the most important is that invoice includes the tax.
