Invoicing tips for tutor

  • Most tutors are not GST-registered (under the $75K threshold) — omit GST in that case
  • Bill weekly for ongoing students for predictable cash flow
  • For term-based packages, take payment upfront (e.g., $560 for 8 weeks)
  • Include session dates on the invoice for clear records
  • Online tutors should still issue invoices — same legal requirements apply

Tutor invoice FAQ

Do private tutors need to charge GST?

Only if your annual tutoring income exceeds $75,000. Most private tutors are well below this threshold — no GST line needed.

Do tutors need an ABN?

Yes for invoicing — without an ABN, clients (especially organisations) must withhold 47% PAYG. Sole-trader ABNs are free.

How do I bill term-based packages?

Either weekly (e.g., $70/week for 8 weeks) or upfront (one $560 invoice). Upfront protects against student dropouts mid-term.

What payment terms work for tutoring?

Net 7 to Net 14 for most parents/students. Many tutors require pre-payment for the next session if a previous one is unpaid.
