Frequently Asked Questions
A consultancy invoice is a detailed document showcasing your consulting services’ expenses. It should show the total price of your project, including project analysis, business process optimization, and all other consulting work. FreshBooks offers templates in Word, Excel, Google Docs, Google Sheets, and PDF formats.
Your invoice should include your business name, payment plan, contact details, invoice number, and a detailed list of all expenses. You may include your company logo, website address, a due date, applicable receipts, or a line explaining why certain charges are listed if desired.
With so much to include, it’s important that your template is easy to adjust with various invoice details. FreshBooks is an excellent option to help you achieve this.
Consultants usually charge a flat rate per project or will begin tracking billable hours from project start to finish. This also may vary on a project-to-project basis. Instead of downloading multiple invoice types to deal with this, it’s much easier to use the template by FreshBooks and edit your payment details as needed.
While not legally required in the US, it’s best practice to list tax on your invoice. This helps your client’s business track what they owe you and helps you communicate why your final invoice charges what it charges. If necessary, you may also add a personal note to specify any additional taxes required for specific projects.
Some templates are more customizable than others. Yet, the fluid nature of consulting necessitates an easy-to-edit template. Templates by FreshBooks are incredibly adjustable. You can mold it any way you please, even if you need a timesheet invoice, interim invoice, mixed invoice, or recurring invoices for repeat clients.
The only legal requirement regarding invoices in the US is that the document must clearly state that it is an invoice in order to be valid. Other than that, there are no specific requirements in the US about what must be included on your consulting service invoice.
