Why an invoice for a short-term rental?
Guests (or their employer, for a business trip) regularly ask for an invoice, and platforms don't always provide a document in your name. As a host you should be able to issue an invoice for your activity, especially once you are registered.
This generator produces a readable invoice with the usual legal mentions (issuer, client, number, date, breakdown, total, VAT mention), with a separate line for the tourist tax. Fill in, preview, and export to PDF via print.
Mandatory invoice fields
- The word "Invoice", a unique number and the issue date
- The issuer's identity: name/company, address, and SIRET if registered
- The client's identity (name, and address for a business)
- The service date or the stay period
- The breakdown: description, quantity, unit price
- The total amount due
- The mention "VAT not applicable, art. 293 B" if exempt; otherwise the rate, VAT amount and your VAT number
- The tourist tax shown separately (outside the VAT base)
FAQ
Must I issue an invoice for an Airbnb rental?
Between individuals it isn't always mandatory, but it is as soon as the client asks and in a business relationship. In any case, once you are registered (SIRET) it is strongly recommended to be able to issue one.
What invoice number should I use?
A continuous, gap-free sequence (e.g. 2026-001, 2026-002...). The number must be unique and chronological.
Should I charge VAT?
Most furnished-rental hosts are VAT-exempt: you don't charge VAT and state "VAT not applicable, art. 293 B". If you exceed the thresholds or opted for VAT, untick the box and enter the rate.
How does the tourist tax appear on the invoice?
On a separate line, because it is collected on behalf of the municipality and is excluded from the VAT base. Our tourist tax guide explains the calculation.
Is the generated invoice sent anywhere?
No. Everything stays in your browser, nothing is stored on our servers. You export the PDF and send it yourself.
Is it really free?
Yes, no signup, no limit. If you manage rentals, you can also create your digital welcome book for free on LivretAccueil.
