What is on every template

Each template follows the invoice format accountants and clients expect: your business name and contact details, the client's details, a unique invoice number, the issue date and the due date (or validity date on a proforma), a line-item table with description, quantity, rate and amount, the subtotal, tax and total, and a notes area for payment instructions. Not sure what goes where? Read what an invoice is and what it must include, or the invoice format guide.

The Word files open in Microsoft Word, Google Docs and LibreOffice. The Excel files open in Excel, Google Sheets and Numbers, with the formulas intact.

Frequently asked questions

Which format should I download?

PDF if you fill invoices by hand or in a PDF editor. Word (.docx) if you want to type into the template and keep the layout. Excel (.xlsx) if you want the subtotal, tax and total to calculate themselves. The free generator is faster than all three: type once, download the finished PDF.

Is the Excel invoice template really editable, with formulas?

Yes. Amount cells multiply quantity by rate, the subtotal sums the lines, tax is applied from the rate you enter, and the total updates automatically. Currency formatting is set to dollars; change it in Excel in one click.

What makes a good invoice template?

Clear hierarchy: who it's from, who it's for, a unique number and dates at a glance; an easy-to-scan items table; the total impossible to miss; and payment instructions right there. All six templates follow that structure. The difference is personality.

Which template should freelancers use?

Match the client. Corporate clients: Classic or Minimal. Creative work: Bold or Sunrise. When in doubt, Classic Indigo is the safe professional default.

Do you have proforma and commercial invoice templates?

Yes. Switch the document type above the templates. The proforma version carries a validity date and a "not a demand for payment" note; the commercial version adds country of origin, Incoterms, reason for export and HS code fields for customs.
