invoice
I am trying to translate the following sentence into Romanian "Invoices are due 30 days end of month invoice date". This sounds like poor English to me, and I have trouble understanding what the sentence as a whole means. Is it something like: Invoices should be sent within 30 days from the end of the month for which the invoice is issued?
The text says that invoices are issued once a month for services provided during that particular month.
Thank you.

[30 days] from the end of the month in which the invoice was issued
normal way to state this is simply 30 days end of month with "in which invoice is issued"being understood.
So if I issue and invoice today, it will be due 30 days from May 31.
