Bookkeeper invoice FAQ
What should a bookkeeping invoice include?
Your name or firm, the client, the service period, the services (monthly books, reconciliations, payroll, reports), total, and payment terms. Note the accounting platform if relevant.
Should bookkeepers bill monthly or hourly?
Fixed monthly pricing is most common for ongoing work; hourly suits catch-up or cleanup projects. You can list both a retainer and hourly extras.
How do I invoice catch-up bookkeeping?
Bill it as a separate project line (e.g. "Catch-up — 6 months") apart from the ongoing monthly fee, so the one-time cost is clear.
