What should a tradie invoice include?

A practical invoice gives the customer everything needed to check the job and pay without another phone call. Include:

  • Your business or trading name, contact details and ABN.
  • A unique invoice number plus the issue date and due date.
  • The customer's name and address or other identifying details.
  • A clear description of labour, materials, quantities and prices.
  • The subtotal, GST amount where applicable and total amount due.
  • Bank, PayID or other payment instructions and a contact for questions.

GST-registered businesses must follow the Australian Taxation Office's tax invoice requirements. Businesses that are not registered for GST should not charge GST. Check the ATO tax invoice guidance or ask a registered tax professional if you are unsure.

Template versus invoicing software

This template is useful for making a one-off invoice and saving it as a PDF. It does not send the invoice, know when it has been viewed, or remember the customer. Dashbord's tradie invoicing software handles those ongoing jobs: save the customer, build GST-aware invoices, add a payment link, track the outstanding balance and follow up if it becomes overdue.

Frequently asked questions

Is this tradie invoice generator free?

Yes. The tool is free, works without an account, and lets you print the invoice or save it as a PDF from your browser.

Does the invoice generator store my details?

No. Everything you type stays in this browser tab. The free tool does not upload, save or send the invoice. Closing or refreshing the page clears the details.

How does the GST calculation work?

For GST-exclusive prices, the tool adds 10%. For GST-inclusive prices, it extracts the GST component as one eleventh of the total. Only select GST registered if that matches your business.

What is the difference between an invoice and a tax invoice?

A tax invoice is the document a GST-registered business issues for a taxable sale and it must meet Australian Taxation Office requirements. A business that is not registered for GST should not charge GST.

Can Dashbord send and track the invoice?

Yes. The free page prepares a printable invoice only. A Dashbord account can save customers and line items, send invoices with payment links, track what is owing, and follow up unpaid invoices.

Create and send GST-aware invoices from your phone, add card payment links, see what is still owing, and let Dashbord follow up overdue invoices.
