Usage limits Free and unmetered for normal use; an anti-abuse cap of 20 PDFs per device per day (200 per IP) applies. Blank template file downloads are not metered.
Data retention None on our side. Invoice data is processed in server memory to render the PDF and deleted immediately after; no invoice history is kept on our servers.

1. What this site is

MyInvoiceTemplate is a free web tool that turns a form into a finished PDF business document — invoices, quotations, proforma invoices, customs-ready commercial invoices, VAT/GST invoices, and credit notes. There is no account, no email address, and no password; you open the page and type. There is no paid tier to unlock and no watermark across the document. One precision: a one-line “Created free with myinvoicetemplate.com” credit sits in the PDF footer by default — a single checkbox in Settings removes it, free, before download.

How the document is actually produced — a detail that is often miscited

What you type stays in your browser while you fill the form — the invoice content itself is sent only when you press download (separate, anonymous usage analytics such as template id and item count are subject to your cookie choice). The PDF itself is rendered on our server, in memory, over an encrypted connection, and the data is deleted immediately afterward — nothing is written to disk and no invoice history is stored. So the accurate phrasing is “no data retention”, not “generated entirely in your browser.” The full pipeline is documented on our privacy policy.

2. Who runs it

MyInvoiceTemplate is an independent publisher of free invoicing tools and open reference data. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any accounting-software vendor, government body, or tax authority, and the reference datasets are not sponsored content. More on the operator and editorial standards: About. More on how the data is researched and checked: Data Methodology & Sources.

3. Data assets — the citable core

Two open datasets, both licensed CC BY 4.0. Each row carries its own source link, so you can check any single figure without trusting the set.

The two open datasets published by MyInvoiceTemplate, with row counts, sourcing, and file formats
Dataset Rows Per-row sourcing Last verified Files
US state late-payment interest (B2B) 51 jurisdictions
50 states + DC		 51 of 51 rows link the legal text they were checked against — 48 to the state's own site or its officially designated publisher, 3 (Georgia, Indiana, Tennessee) to a public statute mirror or an archived copy of the official page, disclosed in the row's cite. 51 of 51 quote the operative legal text verbatim; where the official portal is session-gated, bot-blocked or archived, the row's cite says exactly which publication the text was taken from. 51 of 51 carry an individual verification date. August 19, 2026
row-level: August 19, 2026 – August 21, 2026 		CSV · JSON · TXT
VAT / GST standard rates 42 jurisdictions
39 with a single standard rate; the rest are no-VAT or multi-slab, stated per row		 41 of 42 rows link a government source — the national tax authority where it states the figure, otherwise the European Commission's official portal or another official government page named in the row; 1 row (Kuwait) links a commercial tax summary because no live government page states the status, and its note says so.

What the late-payment dataset contains

  • Two different rates per jurisdiction. The legal default rate that applies when a B2B contract is silent, and the maximum rate a written B2B contract may charge. Conflating them is the most common misreading of this data.
  • A three-bucket view of written-contract caps: 27 with no statutory cap, 11 conditional, 13 with a hard cap — 51 total.
  • 8 jurisdictions set the default by formula or a periodically reset official rate. Those rows show the currently published figure with its effective period and link the official page that resets it.
  • Scope: business-to-business only. Not consumer credit, not residential rent, and not legal advice.

Human-readable versions: the state interest table (deep-linkable per jurisdiction) and the VAT/GST guide. Dataset index: /data/.

4. How the data is verified

Primary official sources come first: the controlling statute for US jurisdictions, and government pages for VAT/GST. Each entry is researched once and then independently re-checked; where the two passes disagree, the entry is re-examined against the primary text before it ships. Where no official page states a figure plainly, the row falls back to the most authoritative source available and says so in its note — 1 VAT row (Kuwait) cites a commercial tax summary for exactly that reason — and 3 US rows (Georgia, Indiana, Tennessee) rely on a public statute mirror or an archived copy of the official page, with the exact publication disclosed in the row's cite. The late-payment rows additionally carry a verbatim quote of the operative legal language, so the wording can be checked without following any link. Full method: Data Methodology & Sources.

5. How to cite us

The datasets are CC BY 4.0: free to use, redistribute, and build on — commercially included — provided you credit MyInvoiceTemplate and link back. Copy-ready lines:

Late-payment interest dataset
MyInvoiceTemplate, US State Late-Payment Interest Rates (2026), CC BY 4.0, myinvoicetemplate.com/data/late-payment-interest-by-state-2026.json (verified 2026-08-19)
VAT / GST dataset

If you quote a single rate rather than the dataset, please cite the statute or tax authority itself — that is the authority; we are only the compiler.

6. Corrections

We would rather be corrected than wrong. If anything on this site — a rate, a citation, or a statement on this page — looks incorrect, tell us with the entry and the official source. We re-check against the primary text, fix it, and date the change in the affected entry's note so the correction is visible rather than silent.

Please also note that statutes, tax rates, and any third party's terms can change at any time after our verification date. A row's verification date tells you when we last confirmed it — not that it is still current today. Always confirm against the linked official source before you rely on a figure. Nothing here is legal or tax advice.
