Hey ABN registered and I do my taxes perfectly fine. I was just wondering if a client pays you without needing to invoice them is that fine?

Hi @ATOconfusion123,


It depends on your situation as to whether an invoice is required or not. If you're not registered for GST you'll need to provide a standard invoice when requested by a client. If you're registered for GST, you'll be required to provide invoices when making a taxable sale of more than $82.50 (Including GST). Below this amount does not required one unless requested.

Hi! What about if it's a platform that sends you the invoice instead for example if it's Youtube Adsense revenue, they send you a receipt/invoice of the amount they paid you. In this case, an invoice on my end won't be needed (even if I was GST registered), correct?


Because there's no way to invoice them in the first place since pay is determined by them not me and ik that you do not collect GST from ad revenue as stated by another post

  1. I am not GST registered. So if I dont need to provide invoice (not required) UNLESS customer asks for it?
  2. and I am not required to provide one either no matter how much it is (even above 82.50) as a non GST registered?


answer both Qs please thanks @EthanATO
