- ABN
- Invoice number and issue date
- Client details
- Services or goods supplied
- Whether GST is included, excluded, or not charged
- Total due and payment due date
GST wording matters
If you are registered for GST, show GST clearly. If you are not registered, do not add GST and do not imply that it applies. This is one of the easiest errors for sole traders using copied templates.
Common sole trader invoice mistakes
- No ABN on the invoice
