Freelance invoice generator for Australian sole traders
Create an Australian freelance invoice for design, writing, development, consulting, marketing, production, support or project work. The PDF includes ABN, service period, project details, GST status and payment terms.
Australian freelancers should be clear about GST registration. If registered, use Tax Invoice wording and charge GST on taxable supplies. If not registered, use Invoice wording and do not add GST.
What an Australian freelance invoice should include
- Your legal or trading name, ABN, address or contact details and payment instructions.
- Client name, project, purchase order or reference.
- Service period, milestone, deliverable or hourly/day-rate description.
- Subtotal, GST if registered and total payable.
- Payment due date, bank details, PayID or other payment method.
- Expense reimbursements or pass-through costs shown separately.
GST registration and ABN withholding
ATO guidance generally requires GST registration once GST turnover reaches the registration threshold, and business.gov.au recommends using invoices that clearly show tax information. If a supplier does not quote an ABN, a payer may need to withhold at the no-ABN withholding rate.
Do not charge GST unless you are registered or required to be registered. If you are below the threshold and not registered, keep the invoice simple and avoid Tax Invoice wording.
Scope, milestones and late payment
Freelance disputes often come from vague descriptions. Include the deliverable, period, milestone or approved change request, and keep reimbursed expenses separate from professional fees.
