What to put on a cleaner receipt
- Your business name and contact details
- A receipt number and the date the money came in
- Who paid, and what for: the invoice number or the job
- How much you received and how it was paid (cash, bank transfer or card)
- What's still owed, if anything, so a part payment or deposit is clear
- Your VAT number if you're VAT registered
Tips for cleaners
- For cash, write the visit dates the payment covers on the receipt.
- Keep a copy of every receipt: it's your record of income for self-assessment.

Should a cleaner give receipts for cash?
Yes. A receipt for each payment, with the visit dates it covers, is the customer's proof and your record of income. If you're ever asked by HMRC, a numbered set of receipts makes it easy.
What's the difference between an invoice and a receipt?
An invoice asks to be paid; a receipt shows you were. Send the invoice when the work is done (or for a deposit), and the receipt when the money comes in. A business customer who is VAT registered needs your VAT invoice to claim the VAT back; a receipt alone isn't enough.
How long do I keep copies of receipts?
HMRC asks sole traders to keep business records for at least 5 years after the 31 January tax return deadline for that year, and limited companies for 6 years. Keep a copy of every receipt you give, and of every one you're given for materials.
