WHAT TO INCLUDE
Every UK invoice needs a unique number, your name and address, the client’s name and address, the date, a description of the work, the amount and how to pay. Then for cabaret and variety acts:
Use “Your Name trading as Stage Name” so accounts can pay the right person.
Each part of the night on its own line makes approval quick.
State the percentage and the ticket total it was based on, and reference the venue’s report.
Still send an invoice marked paid. It is your record for tax.
DO IT IN TWENTY SECONDS
