Invoice example
Here is an invoice example and required information for an invoice. Isolta provides you with invoicing software that makes sure all your invoices are valid and include everything that is required.
Invoice requirements

- Sequential invoice number
- Seller VAT number or Business ID
- Seller and buyer name and address
- Quantity and type of products or services

We recommend you to check the following cases with a professional accountant:
- Reason for VAT exemption or reverse charge
- Buyer VAT number (reverse charge and Intra-Community supply)
- Details to identify the goods as a new means of transport
- Indication concerning possible VAT margin scheme (works of art etc.)
- Indication of taxable investment gold
- Reference to a possible earlier invoice if invoice is amended.
Tips for invoicing
Always try to create an invoice on the same day as the transaction was done
By delaying invoicing a week you delay receiving money by a week. In addition, the agreed might be forgotten. Timely invoicing gives your customer a good impression of professionalism.
Draft the invoice in advance for invoicing
as an offer, a sales order, or an invoice draft, and do as at the earliest time possible. The invoicing itself – that is, producing the actual invoice and sending it to the customer – should not take more than a minute.
Be sure to send the invoice in the manner asked for by the customer
an electronic invoice if the customer prefers, or sent by email if this has been agreed on with the customer, or by conventional post if you are unsure of the customer’s preference.
Regardless of the method of invoice delivery, before sending check…
that the invoice meets the requirements of the tax authorities and that the customer’s details and the other details are correct. It is the responsibility of the customer not to pay any invoice that is incorrect in some detail or other.
Invoices should also be archived carefully
It is the responsibility of the company to save all accounting materials for the minimum of seven years. Electronic archiving is sufficient, as long as the documents have been saved in at least three different places.
Bills must never be altered once they have been sent
If it turns out that there was a mistake in the invoice sent to the customer, the invoice must be cancelled and a new one made and sent in its place. You are of course free to alter the invoice as needed before it is sent to the customer and to accounting.
