Tips for freelance invoicing

Agree terms first

Put your rate, payment schedule and late fee in the proposal, then repeat them on the invoice.

Invoice on milestones

For long projects, invoice at agreed milestones rather than waiting until the end.

Show the hours

Listing hours per task builds trust and makes approval quicker.

Mention the currency

Foreign clients may pay in USD while you are paid in local currency; state which currency the amount is in.
