Download .docxWhen the generator is the better tool
Word does not calculate, number invoices or remember clients. When a job has more than a couple of lines, the free invoice generator works out every amount, carries your details between documents and exports the same print-ready PDF. And when you want a different look, the Template Studio holds 102 editable designs.
This template also comes as an Excel and a fillable PDF file, and opens in Google Docs.
16 blank invoice templates
Filter to the look you want. Each downloads as a Word file, and the same design is on the Excel and PDF pages if you need those instead.

What a blank invoice needs on it
A blank invoice is still a legal request for payment, so leaving a field off costs you the argument later. Every template here carries the eight parts that matter, empty and waiting.
- The word Invoice, so nobody files it as a quote
- A unique invoice number you can quote when you chase it
- Your business name and contact details, and the client's
- The issue date and the date payment is due
- A line for each piece of work, with quantity and rate
- Subtotal, tax and the total due
- How to pay, in the client's own words rather than yours
- Terms, including what happens when it is late
Print it, or type into it
- Want to write on it? Take the PDF and print it blank.
- Want to type? The Word file opens in Word, Google Docs and Pages.
- Want the totals worked out? The Excel file adds up as you type.
- Want it done in two minutes with your trade's lines already in? Use the invoice generator.

Common questions
What is a blank invoice template?
A ready made invoice with every field in place and nothing filled in, so you add your details, the client's, and the work. It saves you laying out a document from scratch.
What has to be on a blank invoice?
The word Invoice, a unique number, both sets of contact details, the issue and due dates, the work itemised, the totals, how to pay, and your terms.
Which format should I pick?
Print the PDF if you write by hand, take the Word file if you type, and take Excel if you want the totals calculated. All three carry the same fields.
Can I print a blank one and fill it in by hand?
Yes. The PDF prints with the boxes as writing lines, which is the version worth keeping a few of in the van.
Do I need an invoice number on a blank invoice?
Yes, and it should be unique and sequential. It is what lets you and the client find the same document when the payment is queried weeks later.
Is it free?
Yes, every file on this page, with no signup and no watermark.
Does it work in Google Docs?
Yes. Upload the .docx to Google Drive and open it with Google Docs; the layout carries over. It also opens in LibreOffice and Pages.
How do I turn it into a PDF?
In Word use File, then Save As, and choose PDF. The client gets a fixed file that looks the same on every device.
Can I add my logo?
Yes. Click into the business block, insert your logo image above or beside the name, and delete any placeholder lines you do not use.
Does Word work out the totals?
No, Word does not calculate. Type the amounts yourself, take the Excel version of this template, or let the free invoice generator do the math and the numbering.
