INVOICE BASICSWhy Use This Free Invoice Generator?
Create an itemized invoice in your browser, review the live preview, and download a country-sized PDF (US Letter for US invoices, A4 otherwise). No account is required—your draft stays on this device until you clear it.
What should an invoice include?
A clear invoice helps both sides understand what was supplied and what is due. Before you send it, confirm it includes:
- Seller and customer names and contact details
- A unique invoice number, issue date and due date
- Descriptions, quantities, rates and line amounts
- Subtotal, any applicable tax, discounts and total due
- Payment instructions and agreed terms
Required fields vary by location and business circumstances. This free invoice generator calculates totals; it does not decide your tax obligations.

Invoice, quote or receipt?
Use the document that matches the stage of the work:
- Invoice — request payment for work supplied or agreed to bill.
- Quote — propose a price before the customer accepts; convert to an invoice later.
- Estimate — communicate expected costs when the final scope may still change.
- Receipt — record money you have already received; it is not a payment request.
