About this free invoice generator
This free invoice generator lets you build a professional invoice in the browser and download it as a PDF — no account, no watermark, no cap on how many you make. It is built for freelancers, contractors, consultants, and small businesses that need to bill a client today and get paid, not learn accounting software first.
How to use it
Fill in your business details once, add the client you are billing, then add a line for each product or service with a quantity and a rate. The subtotal, tax, and total calculate as you type. Add your payment terms, upload a logo if you want branding, and click download.
What each field means
- Invoice number — a unique reference for this bill (e.g. INV-0007). Keep them sequential so you and your client can track payments.
- Due date / payment terms — when you expect to be paid. "Net 15" means within 15 days of the invoice date.
- Line items — description, quantity, and unit rate. Be specific ("Homepage redesign — 6 hrs" beats "design work") so there are no questions later.
- Tax — apply a percentage (VAT, GST, or sales tax) if you are registered to charge it; leave it at zero if you are not.
A quick example
A freelance designer bills two lines — "Brand identity package" at $2,400 and "Print collateral" at $450 — adds 8% tax on the $2,850 subtotal, and sends a $3,078 invoice due Net 15. The whole thing takes about two minutes.
Common mistakes to avoid
- No invoice number — makes it hard for the client’s accounts team to log and pay you.
- No due date — "due on receipt" with no date invites late payment; state a clear term.
- Vague line descriptions — the top cause of "what is this for?" emails that delay payment.
- Forgetting your payment details — put your bank or payment link on every invoice.
