Tax invoice template FAQs

What must an Australian tax invoice include?+

The words 'Tax invoice', your identity and ABN, the issue date, a description of what was sold, and the GST amount (or 'includes GST'). For sales of A$1,000 or more you must also show the buyer's identity or ABN.

What's the difference between an invoice and a tax invoice?+

If you're registered for GST you issue a 'tax invoice' that shows GST. If you're not registered you issue a plain 'invoice' with no GST. Only registered businesses can charge GST.

When do I need the buyer's ABN on an invoice?+

For taxable sales of A$1,000 or more, a valid tax invoice must include the buyer's identity or ABN. Below that threshold it's optional.

Can I generate tax invoices automatically?+

Yes. BookQuo turns a confirmed quote into a compliant tax invoice — with your ABN, GST and the $1,000 buyer rule handled — and sends it straight to the customer.
