What every UK invoice must include

  • A unique invoice number, in sequence
  • Your name or business name, address and contact details
  • The customer’s name (or business name) and address
  • A clear description of what you are charging for
  • The date the goods or services were supplied
  • The date of the invoice
  • The amount for each item, and the total amount owed
  • VAT details, only if you are VAT registered

If you are a sole trader, show your own name and any business name you trade under. If you run a limited company, use the full registered company name. VAT invoices are only needed when you are VAT registered.

Worth adding for cleaners

  • The dates of each visit
  • The type of clean and the hours
  • Supplies, if you provide them and charge for them

Tips to get paid faster

  • Invoice regular customers monthly, listing every visit date.
  • For end of tenancy cleans, add the property address: landlords and agents need it.
  • Agree whether supplies are included in your rate before you start.

Business customers who pay late may owe you statutory interest of 8% above the Bank of England base rate, plus a fixed sum of £40, £70 or £100 depending on the size of the debt. This does not apply to private individuals.

With a free account you can connect Stripe, and every invoice gets a “Pay online” link and QR code, so customers can pay by card or Apple Pay straight away.

Frequently asked questions

Do domestic cleaners need to send invoices?

It is not always required for households, but it is good practice and it helps you keep the income records HMRC expects.

Should I charge for supplies?

Only if you agreed it. Show supplies as a separate line so the customer sees them.

Can I send one invoice for a whole month?

Yes. List every visit with its date on the same invoice.

Is the invoice template really free?

Yes. You can start an invoice straight away without an account. To download it as a PDF, email it or keep it, you create a free TaxEase UK account, which includes 5 invoices a month and card payments through Stripe.
