Invoicing — frequently asked questions
- What must a UK VAT invoice include?
- A full VAT invoice must show: your business name and address, your VAT registration number, the invoice number, invoice date, the customer's name and address, a description of each supply, the VAT rate, the net amount, the VAT amount, and the gross total.
- Do I have to include a VAT number on my invoice?
- Only if you are VAT-registered. If your taxable turnover exceeds the VAT threshold (£90,000 for 2024/25) you must register for VAT and include your VAT number on invoices. Below the threshold, VAT registration is optional.
- What is domestic reverse charge on construction invoices?
- The domestic reverse charge applies to most construction services between VAT-registered businesses. The supplier does not charge VAT; instead the customer accounts for it. The invoice must state 'Reverse charge: customer to account for VAT to HMRC'.
- How long do I need to keep invoice records?
- HMRC requires businesses to keep VAT records for at least 6 years. For Corporation Tax, records must be kept for 6 years from the end of the accounting period. Self-employed individuals should keep records for at least 5 years after the Self Assessment deadline.
- Can I send invoices by email?
- Yes. HMRC accepts electronic invoices. A PDF sent by email is acceptable. You do not need a wet signature or a paper original.
