Hi, I have made an invoice for a freelance web design job, can you please tell me if it is missing anything?

Question

Hi, I recently finished a web design job and needed to make an invoice for the work. I haven't made one before and I am just wondering if there is anything missing from it.

Here is a low-res image of it. There are lines on the central-box too, but they are too faint to make out on the image.

Answer 1

hard to tell from the image but the date looks like it just says Tuesday, August 2008.  Need to list an actual date.

basically a company needs an invoice with the following info:

your name (or co. name) & address

invoice number and date

your customer's name & address

descripton of what the invoice is for

payment terms

personally, I wouldn't list my bank account # on the invoice.  Too much risk in someone using this info for purposes other than sending you money (ie: taking money from your acct)

Answer 2

Hi,

I cant reallty see the writing, but as long as you have the following you are fine

-Date of invoice

-Invoice number for yours and their reference

-Their full address

-Description of goods

-Amount

-vat needs to be split down between Net amount and VAT (if applicable)with the gross amount at the bottom.

-your VAT number, again if applicable

-Your address

-Your bank details (in case the customer sends a bank transfer) this should include your bank, the account number, IBAN, BIC etc.

Also I really like to see an email address, aswell as a phone number ,when receiving invoices. If there is ever any queries, its a quick and effective way to resolve manners.

Answer 3

It looks from your question that you're the professional here, the designer of the web.  This being a professional service to a particular customer, only you would know if it has everything the design specs required.
