Example: a £540 receipt for restoring a table, with 20% VAT included
A furniture restorer registered for VAT has been paid by bank transfer for restoring a customer’s oak dining table. Currency Pound sterling, Unit prices are “Including tax”, number R-2026-031, date 16 October 2026, subject “Restoring an oak dining table”, and two lines at 20% (fictitious names, address and VAT number):
- Your business on the first lines (name, workshop address, phone) and the VAT number in “Tax ID or VAT number”; the customer’s name and address under Customer.
- Because the prices include VAT, the tax is taken out of them, not added: £540.00 ÷ 1.2 = £450.00 taxed, £90.00 VAT.
| Description | Qty | Unit price | Tax | Amount |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Strip, repair and re-polish oak dining table | 1 | £480.00 | 20% | £480.00 |
| Collection and delivery | 1 | £60.00 | 20% | £60.00 |
The PDF, Receipt-R-2026-031.pdf, shows “Amount received £540.00 incl. tax (five hundred and forty pounds)”, “For: Restoring an oak dining table”, “Received with thanks”, the line “Taxable at 20% £450.00 Tax £90.00” and the two items below. With pounds the date prints day first, as in the UK: 16 October 2026 (dollars keep October 16, 2026).

Frequently asked questions
- What does the receipt show?
- The amount received in large figures, who it was received from, what it was for, the date, your business and tax ID, and — when there is tax — the amount taxed and the tax per rate. With more than one line, the items are listed below.
- Why is there a box saying 収入印紙 on a Japanese receipt?
- A Japanese receipt for ¥50,000 or more (before consumption tax) needs a revenue stamp. The box marks where it goes; it is shown only on Japanese receipts in yen at or over that amount.
- Can I add my company seal or logo?
- Yes: choose a PNG or JPG and it is placed beside your business’s name. A PNG with a transparent background looks best; the hanko maker on this site makes a seal like that. It is remembered with the rest of the form if it is under about 300 KB.
- How do I show the VAT included in a price?
- Set “Unit prices are” to Including tax and give each line its rate. The receipt then shows the total you received and, under it, the taxed amount and the tax per rate: £540.00 at 20% shows £450.00 taxed and £90.00 VAT. If you are not VAT-registered, leave the rate at 0 and no tax line appears.
- Is the amount written in words?
- Yes, under the figure, in the document’s language and currency: £540.00 is “five hundred and forty pounds”, $222.50 is “two hundred twenty-two dollars and fifty cents”. It makes the amount harder to alter, which is why many receipts carry it.
- Is what I type uploaded or saved anywhere?
- No. The PDF is made in this page and the form is remembered only in this browser, so next month’s invoice starts filled in. Nothing reaches our servers. With Pro, you can also save several sets — one per customer — and switch between them.
- What does the free plan allow?
- 5 downloads a day, with a small "Made with nouplo.com" line at the foot of the last page, which the preview shows too. Pro removes the line and the limit, and keeps saved settings for each customer.
