Trusted by UK Tradespeople
“I used to do my invoices on a Sunday evening — took me two hours. Now I do them in the van on the way home. The voice thing actually works, it picks up plumbing terms perfectly.”
Mike T. — Plumber, Manchester
“Now I send the invoice before I've put my tools away. Customers are impressed and I get paid faster. Best invoicing app I've used.”
Sarah K. — Electrician, London
“HVAC invoicing is complicated — refrigerant costs, call-out fees, parts, labour. I tried explaining all that by voice and it just got it. The invoice came out perfect.”

UK Tradesman Invoicing Questions
What do UK tradespeople need on an invoice?
- UK invoices must include your name or business name, address, a unique invoice number, the invoice date, a clear description of work, the amount charged, payment terms, and bank details. VAT-registered tradespeople must also include their VAT number and show VAT separately. TraderInvoice generates all of this automatically from a voice description.
Is TraderInvoice Making Tax Digital compliant?
- Yes. Every invoice you create is stored as a digital record — which is the foundation of MTD compliance. From April 2026, tradespeople earning over £50,000 must keep digital records and submit quarterly updates. Your accountant can use your exported TraderInvoice records for those submissions.
Can I add VAT to my invoices automatically?
- Yes — TraderInvoice handles VAT automatically. Set your VAT registration number in your profile and choose the appropriate rate (20% standard or 5% reduced) when creating an invoice. The app calculates the VAT amount and shows it on a separate line, exactly as HMRC requires.
Does it work for sole traders and CIS subcontractors?
- Absolutely. Whether you're a sole trader, a CIS subcontractor, or a limited company, TraderInvoice works the same way. Set up your profile once with your business details, and they appear on every invoice and quote automatically.
What trades is it suitable for in the UK?
- TraderInvoice is used by plumbers, electricians, HVAC engineers, roofers, carpenters, painters, gas engineers, scaffolders, builders, and more. The AI understands UK trade terminology including callout fees, NICEIC certification references, Gas Safe work, and CIS deductions.
