Who it's for

  • •Freelancers invoicing a one-off project without subscribing to accounting software.
  • •Consultants sending monthly retainer invoices in clean, repeatable format.
  • •Small agencies billing clients in EUR, USD, CHF, GBP or CAD.
  • •Tradespeople and artists giving receipts for cash or bank-transfer payments.
  • •Side-hustlers producing their first commercial invoice.
  • •Remote workers and creators needing an invoice for an international client.

Pro tips

  • Use sequential invoice numbers (INV-2026-001, INV-2026-002…). Most jurisdictions legally require unbroken numbering — gaps look like tax fraud.
  • Set a 14- or 30-day due date. Open-ended invoices slip. Shorter terms + clear due date get paid 2-3 weeks faster on average.
  • Include your bank details (IBAN/SWIFT or ACH) directly in the Notes field. One less back-and-forth with the client's AP team.
  • Register for VAT when required by your country — once you pass the threshold, invoices without VAT are non-compliant.
  • Save a copy of every PDF to cloud storage. Most jurisdictions require you to keep invoices for 5-10 years for audit.

Frequently asked questions

Is this invoice legally valid?+

Yes — it includes every field most jurisdictions require (issuer, recipient, invoice number, issue/due date, line items, totals, tax if applicable). In some countries you must also add a legal registration number (SIRET in France, UID in Switzerland, VAT number in the EU). Add it in the From block or Notes.

Is my data stored or sent anywhere?+

No. The generator runs entirely in your browser using jsPDF. No server call, no database, no tracking of invoice content. Close the tab and everything is gone.

Can I add my logo?+

This generator keeps invoices minimal and logo-free by design — deliberately simple for a one-off invoice. If you need branded invoices with a logo, recurring templates and automatic client tracking, use Kiwi's full invoicing module — it's part of the Kiwi dashboard.

How do I charge VAT on my invoice?+

Enter your VAT rate (20% in France/UK, 19% in Germany, 8.1% in Switzerland, 21% in Belgium, etc.) in the Tax field. The generator computes VAT on the subtotal and shows both lines clearly. Remember to add your VAT number in the From block or Notes.

Can I regenerate an invoice later?+

Not from this tool — when you close the tab the form clears. For persistent invoices with client database, payment tracking and accounting reports, sign up to Kiwi (30 free credits, no card needed).
