The Invoice that Leaves No Questions Unanswered
Minimal Effort – Quick Result

An incomplete invoice is a hassle for any client or organizer. However, follow-up questions also mean an annoying time-consuming task for the artists. The more complete the information on the invoice, the faster the agreed fee will reach the artist. So, investing a little time in the invoice pays off.
 

Components of an Invoice

• Name of the artist

• Address of the artist

  • If there are multiple addresses: tax address

  • If applicable: VAT number (Value Added Tax Identification Number)

• Contact (phone, email) of the artist

• Name and address of the client

  • Pay attention to the exact company name (e.g., GmbH, etc.)

• Date of invoice issue

• Sequential, unique invoice number

• Delivery or service date (e.g., concert date) or a suitable time frame of the service

• Explanation of what the invoice is for (What was the service provided?)

• Costs for the service provided (possibly including VAT), the VAT amount (or if VAT exemption applies, a note stating the service is exempt from tax)

• Bank details of the artist (IBAN and BIC)

• Name and signature of the artist at the end of the invoice
