Document background
The Professional Services Invoice is a essential business document used in Hong Kong when billing for professional services rendered. It serves multiple purposes: as a formal request for payment, a tax document for Hong Kong's Inland Revenue Department (IRD), and a record of services provided. This document must comply with Hong Kong's Business Registration Ordinance and Inland Revenue Ordinance, including specific requirements such as business registration numbers, clear service descriptions, and proper tax treatment. The invoice is typically used by service providers ranging from consultants and lawyers to IT professionals and business advisors, documenting their services, fees, and payment terms while maintaining compliance with local regulatory requirements.
