How to bill a self-employed person

Why should the self-employed issue invoices and should they do so?

An invoice is a document that contains the details of the contractor. According to them, the customer will subsequently make a payment. At the same time, the self-employed person does not have the obligation to prepare such papers. For him, even the conclusion agreements not always necessary. The most important document for him is the check that he generates in the My Tax application.

The self-employed person is not obligated, but can issue invoices for payment.

Another thing is that this is not always justified. For example, a person makes candles and sells them to customers - ordinary people. Customers simply transfer money, receive their checks and track number to track the package.

However, sometimes the self-employed have to partner with organizations or entrepreneurs who want to be billed. This helps them simplify the interaction: there is an account - there is a payment on it. Usually such a need is prescribed in the contract (of course, in such cases it is, because it is already clear that the company pays a lot of attention to paperwork).

And if the need to issue an invoice is fixed, it becomes an obligation. Therefore, it is important to know how to do it.
