Catering invoice template

The catering invoice template makes an invoice for an event: price per head, staff hours, extras and discounts, VAT per line if you're registered, any deposit already paid and the balance due. Download it as a PDF, Word or Excel file, or copy it as text for WhatsApp.

Make an invoice

Open the catering invoice template. It is free, needs no sign-up and works on a phone.

01

Step 1: Add your business

Under 1. Your business type your Trading name, pick the Legal form (Sole trader, Limited company or Partnership) and add the Address. A sole trader adds Your full name; a limited company adds the Registered company name and Company no. If you're VAT-registered, type your VAT number and the invoice becomes a VAT invoice.

02

Step 2: Add the customer and the invoice details

Under 2. Bill to add the Customer name and Address, and switch on Client is a business for a business client. Under 3. Invoice choose Final invoice, Deposit invoice or Pro-forma, and check the Invoice number, Invoice date, Event date and Due date.

03

Step 3: Add the lines and the deposit

Under 4. Lines pick a type for each line (Per head, Item, Hours, Fixed fee or Discount), a description and the rate. With a VAT number each line gets its own VAT rate. Under 5. Deposit paid add any deposit you've had; the balance is worked out for you.

04

Step 4: Add payment details and download

Under 6. Payment and notes add your bank details, a Card payment link and notes. Then press Download PDF to print, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), Copy as text or Send on WhatsApp.

Good to knowWithout a VAT number the invoice says "Not VAT-registered". With one, VAT is worked out per rate and rounded down to the penny. Customer agreed to a simplified invoice shows only for VAT-registered sales of £250 or less, and Show late payment terms only for business clients. Press Start the next invoice to keep your business details and move to the next number. Outside the UK the tool uses your currency and tax name, without the UK-only fields.

Questions

Is anything saved?
Your business, VAT and payment details and the invoice numbers you've used stay in your browser, so the next invoice starts with the next number. Nothing is sent to us.
Why can't I download yet?
The buttons work once you've changed the example and the list of problems under the invoice is empty, such as a missing customer address or a company number that isn't 8 characters.
Can I turn a quote into an invoice?
Copy the lines from your Catering quote maker quote into the invoice. The quote maker doesn't send its lines across on its own.
