Hi,

I am just getting back onto the freelance translation market, and was wondering if anyone had any tips regardging terms and conditions on invoices when working from the UK?
Do you include a late payment clause?
Many thanks

I would try not to burden down your client with too many Ts and Cs.

One thing I would always do is:

Specify the payment terms, on your invoice, with wording such as:

"Payment terms: max. 30 days from the date of this invoice."

or if you have already agreed something

"Payment terms: as agreed, 30 days from the date of this invoice"

Etc. That's all you need if you ever need to enforce payment.
