Overview

Editable Invoice Template for Freelancers is an editable invoice template for freelancers who bill by the hour or by the project: log your time, and the invoice adds up the hours, expenses, tax and balance due for you. Three focused files, each in four languages.

What is in the ZIP (per language)

  • 01-Hourly-Invoice-with-Time-Log.xlsx (Excel): an Invoice sheet with up to 6 services and hourly rates, hours pulled per service from the Time Log for the billing period, up to 4 expenses to reimburse, discount rate, tax rate (optionally on expenses), retainer received, balance due and due date (invoice date + payment terms). A Time Log sheet with 60 rows for date, service, task, start, end and break: hours are calculated, rounded up to your billing step (for example 15 minutes), and rows that are not billable or outside the period turn grey. A How to use sheet.
  • 02-Fixed-Price-Milestone-Invoice.xlsx (Excel): project fee, up to 8 milestones as a share of the fee with a status (Billed earlier, Bill now, Not yet) and a 100% check, up to 3 lines of extra work, tax, advance payment and balance due, plus a project billing box (billed earlier, this invoice, still to bill, % billed). A How to use sheet.
  • 03-Freelance-Invoice.docx (Word): the invoice as an editable Word document, plus a page with an email to send with the invoice, six reusable payment-term clauses and a checklist before sending.

Four languages

English/, Arabic/, French/ and Spanish/ folders hold the same three files, each written for its readers (TVA and Total TTC in French, IVA in Spanish). The Arabic files use right-to-left sheets and a right-to-left Word document with Western digits.

Built to be used

  • Real formulas; input cells are shaded and formula cells are locked with sheet protection without a password.
  • Drop-down lists for services, Yes/No and milestone status. Currency code cell shown in the headers and next to the balance due.
  • Print areas set for A4 (each invoice on one page), with US Letter instructions in the README.
  • Arial only, one violet accent colour that is easy to change, a "YOUR LOGO" placeholder. Plain .xlsx and .docx, no macros.

Also included

  • One preview PDF per language with every page of every file.
  • README in English and Arabic (editing, logo and colours, formulas, printing, compatibility notes), licence and changelog.
