Why Australian Sole Traders Need a Proper Invoice Template

As an Australian sole trader, you must issue a Tax Invoice for any supply over $82.50 (including GST) if you are GST-registered. The ATO requires it to clearly show the words "Tax Invoice", your ABN, the date, a description of goods or services, the GST amount, and the total. If your turnover is under $75,000 AUD and you are not registered for GST, you issue a regular invoice (no GST). InvoicesNest supports both versions — making it the perfect free sole trader invoice template for Australia.

Australian Sole Trader Invoice FAQ

Everything Australian sole traders need to know about invoicing — ATO requirements, ABN, GST, and payment terms.

An ATO-compliant Tax Invoice (for GST-registered sole traders) must include: the words "Tax Invoice" clearly at the top, your business name and ABN, the date, your client's name, a description of goods or services, the total price, and the GST amount shown separately. For non-GST-registered sole traders, a regular invoice (no "Tax Invoice" heading, no GST) is acceptable.

Only if your annual turnover is $75,000 AUD or more. Below this threshold, you are not required to register for GST and should not charge it. Once GST-registered, you must add 10% GST to your invoices and lodge a Business Activity Statement (BAS) with the ATO quarterly.

Yes. InvoicesNest fully supports GST-free invoices for Australian sole traders who are not registered for GST. Simply leave the tax field blank or set it to 0%. This is the correct approach for sole traders under the $75,000 ATO threshold.

Yes, if you are GST-registered and issuing a Tax Invoice. The ATO requires your ABN on all Tax Invoices over $82.50. Even if not GST-registered, including your ABN on invoices is best practice and helps your clients process payments correctly.
