New Zealand Sole Trader Invoice Template

Invoicing, quotations and payments receipt template for NZ sole traders

If you are a sole trader then here is a simple sole trader invoice template created exclusively for New Zealand (NZ) small businesses.

Sole Trader can create GST compliant invoices using our template, collect payments, record expenses and purchase bills and submit GST returns to IRD New Zealand in a few simple steps.

The template automatically accounts for GST collected on invoices and summarizes the GST paid on expenses and purchases. This template comes with GST receipt NZ module, which updates the GST report and provides the sole trader with net GST liability on a real-time basis.

Please note, a New Zealand Business Number (NZBN) is required if you have a business with a turnover of NZD $ 60,000 or above. You can get NZBN from the Inland Revenue department. Also, it’s relatively simple to start as a sole trader in New Zealand, as you don’t need to go through a legal process or to register yourself or your business with a government agency except for getting a GST number if you meet the turnover criteria.

Keeping a record of all transactions and generating fresh invoice using a NZ invoice template helps a sole trader stay on top of books and be in complete control of business. It also helps in staying compliant with very little efforts.
