BILLING REGULATIONS IN THE UK
Invoicing and Receipts.
When you sell a customer a product or service, you are required to give him an invoice if you are both registered for Value Added Tax (VAT), i.e., a business to business transaction. An invoice is not the same as a receipt. The invoice must clearly display the word “invoice” and include the following:
a unique identification number;
your company name, address, and contact information;
the company name and address of the customer you are invoicing;
a clear description of what you are charging for (good or service);
the date the goods or service were provided (supply date);
the date of the invoice;
the date the payment is due;
the amount(s) being charged;
VAT amount, if applicable; and
the total amount owed.
