This is how it works Invoicing
Customized invoicing tool
When you want to register an assignment or create an invoice, you enter the customer’s details, how much you have worked, a description of what you have done, how much you want to invoice and how the invoice should be sent to the customer.
It’s also possible to create more advanced invoices, including deductions, rot and rut, car reimbursements and per diems.
This is what your invoice looks like
The information and data you enter in the invoice tool automatically becomes an invoice to your customer. Your description along with your name will appear on the invoice to make it clear to your customer who carried out the job. You can also choose to add your own logo to appear on your invoice.
You can always preview what the invoice will look like when it is sent to the customer before you choose to submit it.
Follow your invoice
When you create an invoice in our tool Frilans Finans will review it. This means, among other things, that we carry out a credit assessment and make sure that the information provided is correct. You will shortly after receive an e-mail notification of the rating your invoice has received.
An approved invoice will be sent directly to the customer. You will then receive your salary even before the customer has paid the invoice. If the payment from your customer has not been received, Frilans Finans will send a reminder. You can always follow your invoices by logging in to your page.
If the invoice is approved with reservations or not approved, we will notify you and what this means. You are always welcome to contact us in advance to find out what assessment your invoice will receive.

Common questions and answers
How do I calculate my net pay, alternatively, what I should charge the customer?
You can use the Calculator on the homepage to calculate your net wages on the basis of the invoice amount, or vice versa.
Can I invoice through Frilans Finans even if I have a non-payment record in my credit history?
You are always welcome to invoice via Frilans Finans. The only difference compared to if you do not have non-payments in your credit history is that your pay is not transferred to you until the customer has completed its payment to Frilans Finans.
How do I claim a deduction for expenses?
You claim deductions for expenses directly from the invoiced amount and thus don’t need to pay these with taxed money. Example: you have made an agreement with the customer that you will receive remuneration of SEK 1,000 for services rendered. You have costs/expenses of SEK 200. You are therefore only taxed on SEK 800. The costs/expenses amounting to SEK 200 we pay directly to you, against the approved receipt(s) you have submitted. The costs/expenses are entered into the invoicing tool, Invoice, Part 2, which you can access via the “Create invoice” button that you see when you are logged in. For further information, refer to the Deductions Guide
