Three things that get lawn mowing invoices paid faster

  1. 1Separate mowing from extras like hedges and green waste, so a client who only wants the lawn done sees the base price clearly.
  2. 2For fortnightly rounds, one invoice per visit keeps the amounts small and the payments quick.
  3. 3Add the property address on the invoice when you work for an agent or a strata manager; they file by property, not by name.

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.

  1. 1The words "Tax Invoice", so the document identifies itself
  2. 2Your business name, as it is registered
  3. 3Your ABN, all 11 digits
  4. 4The date you issued it
  5. 5A description of what you supplied, itemised
  6. 6The GST amount, or a statement that the total includes GST
  7. 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 lawn mowing?

Only once you are registered for GST, which becomes compulsory at $75,000 turnover a year. Below that, leave the GST box off and the invoice is issued without GST and without the words "tax invoice".

How do I invoice a strata or property manager?

Put the property address on the invoice as well as the manager’s business name, and include any job or work order number they gave you. Most managers pay on 14 or 30 day terms, so set the due date accordingly.

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.
