Frequently asked questions

What should a consulting receipt include?

Include the project or engagement name, deliverables completed at this stage, hours or days worked if billing by time, any expenses reimbursed, and total amount received. Reference the invoice number if one was issued.

How should consultants receipt milestone payments?

Issue a receipt for each milestone payment, clearly stating which project phase or deliverable it covers. This creates a clear audit trail for both you and your client.

Do consultants need to issue VAT receipts?

If VAT-registered, yes — show your VAT number, net amount, VAT rate, VAT amount, and gross total separately. For international clients, note whether reverse charge VAT rules apply.
