Excellent, thanks for the info. This is what I thought until a friend said something about adding a service tax. But I think he was talking about an out of state job.

You should always check with your accountant about your specific situation but professional services are not subject to tax in New York State:

Sales tax also does not apply to most services. Examples of services not subject to sales tax are capital improvements to real property, medical care, education, and personal and professional services. See Transactions that are not subject to sales tax for details.


Cheers,

    I know this varies state to state. I am not incorporated. In the past I have not added any kind of tax onto the invoice unless I was handing over a deliverable, in which I've been told you have to charge NY state sales tax on the whole invoice. 

However for strictly digital delivery and rendering of services is there a NY state service tax or anything I should be adding on? 

Furthermore are there any "legal" templates for these kinds of invoices? Taxes are coming up and I want to make sure everything is above board as I had a lot of work last year. Going forward I want to keep it all nice and organized. I know I should probably hire an accountant...
