What to include

  • Final deliverables
  • Handover note

Example line items

  • Final project payment
  • Remaining balance
  • Completion fee
  • Handover support
  • Final revisions

Common mistakes

Show prior payments, remaining balance, and completion date. Final invoices should list handover items so the client knows what is being closed out.

Reconcile the full project balance

Start with the agreed project total, then show deposits, milestone payments, credits, and the amount still due. Check that the final balance agrees with the earlier invoices instead of presenting only an unexplained remainder.

Identify the completion or handoff event

Name the final deliverables, service period, completion date, acceptance, or handoff associated with the invoice. Include continuing support only when it is part of the agreed final payment.

Keep open items separate

Do not mark disputed, unfinished, or future work as complete merely because the project is near its end. Record approved extras separately and retain the earlier invoices so the client can follow the payment history.
