- Invoice Number: Every invoice should have its own number. With Debitoor, this number is automatically assigned in sequential order for each new invoice.
- Invoice Date: Clearly indicates the date on which the invoice is issued.
- Payment terms and due date: Lets your customer know exactly how much time they have before the total payment is due.
- Customer and company information: The full name (or company name) of your customer, as well as your company’s address and registration number.
- Product or service: A description of each product or service that you are selling, as well as the quantity, VAT rate, and unit price (gross).
- Total: The subtotal of all products or services without VAT added, the total VAT (and income tax, if applicable), and a final total, clearly indicated.

When you create a new invoice with Debitoor, you begin by filling in the information about the customer you're invoicing, including their name, address, country, and VAT, if applicable.

- Display the gross or net price
- Apply a discount to the invoice total
- Select a different language or currency.

9. Taxable amount, VAT, and total
By law, an invoice must feature a subtotal before VAT, then the application of VAT and the final total.
Debitoor handles all the calculations for you, so no need to hunt down the calculator on your mobile.
If you've applied any discounts or activated the CIS deduction, those amounts will appear in this section before the total.

In this section, you can choose to enter any additional terms for the invoice, such as payment terms, return or exchange instructions, or any other important information you wish to include.
