What this calculator does not do
- It does not keep anything. Nothing is written to your browser's storage while you use it and nothing is sent to us, so the figures are gone when you close the tab. Press Create this invoice if you need a document: the figures are handed to the invoice generator in this tab, cleared as soon as it opens, and saved there as a new invoice alongside any you already have.
- It does not track time. Enter hours you have already counted; this works out what they come to.
- It does not know your tax rate, and it does not check whether you are required to charge tax at all. It applies the rate you type.
- It does not suggest an hourly rate. What you should charge depends on your market, your costs and your client, none of which are arithmetic.

Billing fixed amounts rather than hours? The invoice calculator takes a quantity and a unit price instead. To work out what the hourly rate itself ought to be before it goes on an invoice, there is the freelance rate calculator. To work a single figure back out of a tax-inclusive total, use the VAT calculator. For the date the invoice falls due rather than what is on it, there is the invoice due date calculator.
