Three things that get cleaning invoices paid faster
- 1List each room or task as its own line. "Clean, 3 hours" gets queried; "kitchen, two bathrooms, floors throughout" does not.
- 2For a bond clean, note that the agent inspection is the client’s responsibility and any re-clean is quoted separately.
- 3Regular clients pay faster with the same invoice number pattern each week, for example CLN-2026-041.
What has to be on the invoice
If you are registered for GST, the ATO expects seven things on a tax invoice before your client can claim the GST back. Miss one and the invoice can be knocked back, which is how a 14-day invoice quietly becomes a 60-day one.
- 1The words "Tax Invoice", so the document identifies itself
- 2Your business name, as it is registered
- 3Your ABN, all 11 digits
- 4The date you issued it
- 5A description of what you supplied, itemised
- 6The GST amount, or a statement that the total includes GST
- 7The total amount payable
Invoices of $1,000 or more need one extra field: the buyer’s identity or ABN. If you are not registered for GST, you must not charge GST and must not call the document a tax invoice; untick the GST box above and it becomes a plain invoice.
General information only, not tax advice. Check your own circumstances with the ATO or your accountant.
Questions
Do I charge GST on cleaning?
Only if you are registered for GST, which is required once your turnover reaches $75,000 a year. Many sole-trader cleaners are under that and send plain invoices with no GST. Tick the GST box only if you are registered.
Should I invoice per clean or per month?
Per clean for new or occasional clients, so nothing is in dispute. For regular weekly clients a monthly invoice with one line per visit and its date works well, and plan it so the month’s invoice goes out on the same day each time.
Is this invoice generator really free?
Yes. Build the invoice and download the PDF without creating an account, entering a card or getting a watermark. You only need a free account if you want Free Invoice App to email the invoice, take card payments or chase it when it goes overdue.
Is the invoice ATO-compliant?
It follows the ATO tax invoice format: the words "Tax Invoice", your business name and ABN, the issue date, an itemised description of what you supplied, the GST amount and the total payable. Tick the GST box only if you are registered for GST; leave it off and the document is issued as a plain invoice with no GST.
