An invoice without GST: a worked example
A sole trader who is not registered for GST does a day of garden work. Choose Not GST registered — no GST above and the invoice comes out like this:
- Invoice INV-007, issued 7 October, due 21 October
- From: the business name, ABN, address and email
- To: the customer's name and address
- Garden clean up, 6 hours at $55: $330.00
- Green waste removal, 1 load at $80: $80.00
- Total: $410.00, with no GST line
- Payment: bank transfer to the account shown, reference INV-007
The heading says Invoice, not Tax invoice, and there is no GST amount, because only a GST registered business can charge GST or issue a tax invoice.
Questions
What goes on an invoice if I'm not registered for GST?
No law sets out what a regular invoice must contain, but business.gov.au lists the usual details: the word "invoice" (never "tax invoice"), your business name and ABN, a unique invoice number, the date, your contact details, a description of what you sold with quantity and price, when and how to pay, and the buyer's name.
Do I need an ABN on my invoice?
If you invoice another business, yes in practice. A business that pays you more than $75 (excluding GST) without your ABN on the invoice generally has to withhold 47% of the payment and send it to the ATO, unless an exception applies. Putting your ABN on every invoice avoids that.
When is it a tax invoice?
Only when you are registered for GST. Then you must give a tax invoice for a taxable sale over $82.50 including GST, or whenever the customer asks, within 28 days. It must say "tax invoice" and show your business name, ABN, the date, what you sold with quantity and price, and the GST payable. For sales over $1,000 it must also show the buyer's identity or ABN. Choose one of the GST registered settings above and the tool lays this out for you.
