What to put on an electrician invoice
Show your licence and the certificate
Put your electrical contractor licence number on every invoice; customers and builders look for it. If the job needed a compliance certificate (a Certificate of Electrical Safety in Victoria, a CCEW in New South Wales), add its number in the notes so the customer can match the paperwork to the bill.
Split labour from fittings
List labour, the call-out fee and each fitting on its own line rather than one lump sum. Customers query fewer bills when they can see what the downlights cost against the time to fit them, and it makes the next quote for the same customer quicker.
Working for a builder?
Builders report what they pay contractors to the ATO each year, so they need your ABN and business name exactly as registered. Without an ABN on your invoice, the builder usually has to withhold 47% of your payment.
The starting lines are examples with no prices: add your own rates. Rules checked October 2026; they can change, so check your state's regulator for anything that matters.
Doing this every week?
Job management apps send quotes from your phone, turn them into invoices, chase late payers and sync with Xero or MYOB. See what ServiceM8, Tradify and Fergus would cost for your team.
Rather hand the admin to someone?
Tell us what's eating your evenings (quotes, invoices, chasing payments, the BAS) and we'll match you with a bookkeeper or admin assistant who works with trades. Free to ask, no obligation.
Common questions
What licence number goes on an electrician's invoice?
Your electrical contractor licence or registration number from your state's regulator. The builder has a licence field, and it prints under your ABN.
Should I charge GST on a call-out fee?
If you're registered for GST, yes: the call-out fee is part of your taxable supply like the rest of the job. If you're not registered, don't add GST to anything.
Can I send it from my phone on site?
Yes. Fill it in, tap Save as PDF, then share the PDF by email or text. Tick "remember my details" and your business details are there next time.
