What Is a Simple Invoice Template?

A simple invoice template is a clean invoice layout focused on the essential billing information - who's billing whom, for what, and how much is due - without extra sections you don't need.

What Should a Simple Invoice Include?

  • Business name and contact details
  • Client name and contact details
  • A unique invoice number
  • Invoice date
  • Payment due date
  • Services or products provided
  • Quantity or hours worked
  • Rate per item, hour or unit
  • Subtotal
  • Tax, where applicable
  • Total amount due
  • Payment terms

Exact invoice requirements can vary by country, business type and tax status. MakeInvo provides invoice-creation software, not legal, tax or accounting advice.
