> Free invoice generators that follow local tax rules (India GST, Australian tax invoice, UK VAT, export commercial invoices) and run entirely in the browser: invoice data is never uploaded. PDFs are free with a small footer; a one-off payment (about $2 or Rs. 49) removes it.

## Guides
- [GST invoice format: every mandatory field, explained](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/gst-invoice-format/): A GST tax invoice must show the supplier's name, address and GSTIN; a unique consecutive invoice number of up to 16 characters; the date; the recipient's details (and GSTIN if registered); HSN/SAC, description, quantity and taxable value per item; the GST rate and amount split into CGST+SGST or IGST; place of supply; whether reverse charge applies; and a signature.
- [CGST + SGST or IGST: which one applies to your invoice?](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/cgst-sgst-igst/): If the supplier's state and the place of supply are the same, charge CGST + SGST (half the GST rate each, e.g. 9% + 9% for 18%). If they are different states, charge IGST at the full rate (18%). Exports are zero-rated: under an LUT no IGST is charged.
- [Tax invoice requirements in Australia](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/tax-invoice-requirements-australia/): An Australian tax invoice must show: that it is a tax invoice, the seller's identity and ABN, the issue date, a brief description of the items (with quantity and price), the GST amount or a statement that the total includes GST, and how much of each sale is taxable. For sales of $1,000 or more it must also show the buyer's identity or ABN. You must provide one within 28 days if asked, for taxable sales over $82.50 including GST.
- [What a UK VAT invoice must include](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/vat-invoice-requirements-uk/): A full UK VAT invoice needs a unique sequential number, your name, address and VAT registration number, the invoice date and time of supply (tax point) if different, the customer's name and address, a description of each item with quantity, unit price, VAT rate and net amount, and totals excluding VAT and of VAT. Retailers can issue a simplified invoice for supplies up to £250 including VAT.
- [Commercial invoice vs proforma invoice](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/commercial-invoice-vs-proforma-invoice/): A proforma invoice is a preliminary quote sent before a sale is confirmed or shipped: it is not a demand for payment or a tax document. A commercial invoice is the final document for a completed sale, used by customs to value goods and assess duty. Exporters often send a proforma first, then a commercial invoice with the shipment.
- [How to fill out a commercial invoice for export](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/how-to-fill-commercial-invoice/): A commercial invoice needs the exporter and consignee details, invoice number and date, a precise description of each item with quantity, unit value and total, the HS code and country of origin for each item, the currency, Incoterms, the reason for export, package count and weight, and a signed declaration. Vague descriptions and missing HS codes are the most common causes of customs delays.
- [Rent receipts for HRA: format and rules](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/rent-receipt-for-hra/): A rent receipt for HRA should show the tenant's and landlord's names, the rented property's address, the rent amount in figures and words, the period, the payment mode and date, and the landlord's signature. If annual rent exceeds Rs. 1,00,000, the landlord's PAN is required. Cash receipts above Rs. 5,000 usually carry a revenue stamp. HRA exemption is available only under the old tax regime.
- [Bill of supply vs tax invoice](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/bill-of-supply-vs-tax-invoice/): A tax invoice is issued by a regular GST-registered supplier and shows the GST charged. A bill of supply is issued when no GST can be charged: by composition dealers, or for exempt or non-taxable supplies. A composition dealer's bill of supply must say 'composition taxable person, not eligible to collect tax on supplies'.
- [How to make an invoice, step by step](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/how-to-make-an-invoice/): An invoice needs: the word 'Invoice' (or 'Tax invoice'), a unique invoice number, the issue date and due date, your business name, address and tax number, your customer's name and address, each item with quantity, price and amount, any tax shown separately, the total due, and how to pay. Countries add their own rules: GST in India and Australia, VAT in the UK.
- [Invoice vs receipt: what's the difference?](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/invoice-vs-receipt/): An invoice is sent before payment to request it: it shows what is owed, by when and how to pay. A receipt is issued after payment to prove it was made: it shows the amount paid, the date and the payment method. Many businesses send an invoice first and a receipt once paid; shops often issue a combined bill or receipt at the till.
- [How to number invoices correctly](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/invoice-numbering/): Give every invoice a unique number that follows a sequence, and never reuse or skip numbers without a record. In India, GST invoice numbers can be up to 16 characters (letters, digits, hyphen and slash) and must be consecutive and unique within a financial year. UK VAT invoices need a unique sequential number. A simple format like INV-2026-0001 works almost everywhere.
- [Credit note vs debit note](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/credit-note-vs-debit-note/): A credit note reduces the amount owed on an earlier invoice, for example after a return, a discount or an overcharge. A debit note (or supplementary invoice) increases it, for example after an undercharge. Under GST in India, both must refer to the original invoice and are reported in your returns; the credit note deadline is tied to the financial year.
- [HSN and SAC codes on GST invoices](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/hsn-sac-codes-on-invoices/): HSN codes classify goods and SAC codes classify services under GST. Businesses with annual turnover up to Rs. 5 crore must show at least 4-digit codes on B2B tax invoices; above Rs. 5 crore, 6 digits on all tax invoices. SAC codes for services start with 99. Look up codes on the official GST portal's HSN search.
- [E-invoicing in India: IRN and QR code explained](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/e-invoicing-india/): Under GST, businesses whose aggregate turnover in any financial year since 2017-18 exceeded Rs. 5 crore must report B2B invoices (and exports, credit and debit notes) to the Invoice Registration Portal (IRP). The IRP returns an Invoice Reference Number (IRN) and a signed QR code, which must appear on the invoice. Smaller businesses continue with regular GST invoices.
- [Incoterms 2020 explained](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/incoterms-2020-explained/): Incoterms 2020 are 11 rules that say who pays for transport, insurance and duties, and where risk passes from seller to buyer. EXW puts almost everything on the buyer; DDP puts almost everything on the seller. FAS, FOB, CFR and CIF are for sea and inland waterway only; the other seven work for any transport. Write the term with a named place, for example 'FOB Mumbai Port, Incoterms 2020'.
- [Can you invoice without an ABN?](https://taxinvoice.app/guides/invoice-without-abn/): If you supply goods or services to an Australian business without quoting your ABN, the business generally must withhold 47% of the payment and send it to the ATO. There are exceptions, for example payments of $75 or less (excluding GST), hobbies, and individuals who give a 'Statement by a supplier' form. Quoting a valid ABN on your invoice avoids the withholding.
