UK Tradesman Invoicing Questions
What do UK tradespeople need on an invoice?
- UK invoices must include your name or business name, address, a unique invoice number, the invoice date, a clear description of work, the amount charged, payment terms, and bank details. VAT-registered tradespeople must also include their VAT number and show VAT separately. TraderInvoice generates all of this automatically from a voice description.
Does TraderInvoice help with Making Tax Digital?
- It helps with the record-keeping part. Every invoice you create is stored as a digital record you can export. Since April 2026, tradespeople earning over £50,000 must keep digital records and submit quarterly updates (£30,000 from April 2027). TraderInvoice is not HMRC-recognised MTD software and does not submit to HMRC, so your accountant or MTD software uses your exported records for the quarterly submissions.
Can I add VAT to my invoices automatically?
- Yes — TraderInvoice handles VAT automatically. Set your VAT registration number in your profile and choose the appropriate rate (20% standard or 5% reduced) when creating an invoice. The app calculates the VAT amount and shows it on a separate line, exactly as HMRC requires.
Does it work for sole traders and CIS subcontractors?
- Absolutely. Whether you're a sole trader, a CIS subcontractor, or a limited company, TraderInvoice works the same way. Set up your profile once with your business details, and they appear on every invoice and quote automatically.
What trades is it suitable for in the UK?
- TraderInvoice works for plumbers, electricians, HVAC engineers, roofers, carpenters, painters, gas engineers, scaffolders, builders, and more. The AI understands UK trade terminology including callout fees, NICEIC certification references, Gas Safe work, and CIS deductions.
