Frequently Asked Questions

What is the standard invoice format?

A standard invoice will have important details like a header that says “invoice,” client company name and contact details, your business name and contact information, a unique invoice number, the invoice date, payment information, and an invoice due date. You will also list all products or services, their total cost, and any relevant tax or bank information.

How do I create a standard invoice?

Using a free standard invoice template can be easier than creating an invoice from scratch and can leave a professional impression on customers. FreshBooks has free standard invoice templates in Word, Excel, PDF, Google Docs, and Google Sheets file formats that are customizable, downloadable, and ready for use, making your workday more efficient than ever.

What is a standard vs. simplified invoice?

The difference is the amount of detail provided. A free, simplified invoice does not have the date, customer details, taxes, and the price and quantity of all line items or services, while a standard invoice includes all of this and other important business information.

Can I customize a standard invoice template to meet my specific business needs?
