Frequently Asked Questions
Should a cleaning business charge GST?
If your turnover exceeds $75,000 you must register for GST and charge it on all services. Many commercial clients prefer dealing with GST-registered suppliers because they can claim the credit.
How do I invoice for end-of-lease cleaning?
Issue a tax invoice listing each area cleaned, the total price (inc or ex GST), and any extras such as carpet steam cleaning or oven degreasing. Attach before-and-after photos if the real estate agent requires them.
Do I need insurance as a cleaner?
Public liability insurance is strongly recommended. Most commercial clients and real estate agents require at least $10 million cover before they will engage a cleaning company.
Do I need an ABN on my invoice?
Yes. If you have an ABN, it must appear on every tax invoice. Without an ABN, the payer may withhold 47% of the payment.
When is a tax invoice required?
A GST-registered business must issue a tax invoice for any sale over $82.50 (including GST) when the buyer requests one.
