Invoicing for consultants
Hourly rate, fixed price, or recurring billing, whichever model you use, a consulting invoice needs to be clear and easy to approve.
Hourly billing
Specify the number of hours and hourly rate per line, ideally with a short description of what the time was spent on. A clear breakdown reduces questions from the client and helps them approve the invoice faster.
Fixed price per project
For fixed-price engagements, you can invoice the full amount on delivery, or split it into installments tied to milestones. Clearly state which part of the project each installment covers.
Ongoing engagements
If you have an ongoing consulting engagement billed monthly, recurring invoices work well, you set up the template once and a new invoice is generated automatically on the schedule you choose.
Frequently asked questions
Can I invoice in a different currency for foreign clients?
Yes, you can invoice in SEK or another currency, and the tool suggests a currency based on the customer's country.
What's the clearest way to specify time spent?
One line per activity or week, with hours, hourly rate, and a short description, gives the client a clear picture without making the invoice unnecessarily long.
Do recurring invoices suit consulting fees?
Yes, if the amount is the same each period. If it varies, you'll still want to create each invoice manually to reflect the actual time spent.
