Common Clothing Store Invoicing Mistakes

Invoices go sideways when details are fuzzy. Use these fixes to prevent confusion and chargebacks.

Mistake
How to fix it
Leaving out return or exchange terms leads to disputes and chargebacks.
Add a clear, dated policy on every invoice with return window, condition, and proof-of-purchase rules; check local rules.
Mixing taxable goods and non-taxable services on one line causes wrong tax and penalties.
List goods and services on separate lines and apply tax only to taxable items; verify your tax setup and rates before finalizing.
Capture the exact identifiers for each item and mirror the label on the tag or barcode.

Use a unique, sequential invoice ID and timestamp every sale, pickup, and refund.
Use a unique, sequential invoice ID and timestamp every sale, pickup, and refund.
Burying discounts inside item prices confuses customers and hides margin changes.
Show discounts as a separate negative line or field with the promo code or reason.
Shipping without a carrier and tracking number triggers support loops and lost-package claims.
Show the carrier, service level, cost, and tracking number on the invoice and send updates once it ships.

Clothing Stores Invoice FAQs

For boutiques, apparel retailers, and garment shops: line items for alterations, embroidery, wholesale terms, deposits, tax, shipping, and returns. Clear answers.

How do I bill for in-house alterations on a dress purchase?

List product and tailoring as separate lines so customers see both. Example: “Silk midi dress: $180” and “Hem + take-in (alterations): $35.”

What deposit should I collect for special orders or preorders?

Take a non-refundable deposit and show it as a payment against the order. Example: “Custom suit deposit: $150” and later “Balance due on pickup: $449.”

How do I show wholesale pricing tiers and order minimums for a corporate uniform buy?

Add size run lines and tiered unit prices with the minimum noted. Example: “Polo, 50–99 units @ $14 each: $700” and “Order minimum: 50 units.”

How do consignment payouts and commissions appear on the bill?

Show sale price, your commission, and consignor payout. Example: “Consigned handbag: sold $220,” “Store commission (40%): $88,” “Consignor payout: $132.”

Do I charge sales tax on clothing and tailoring services?

Tax rules differ by state and city; rules vary—check local rules. Example: “Clothing subtotal: $240,” “Tailoring service: $25,” “Sales tax (state + local): $18.59.”

Can I credit a styling appointment fee toward the purchase?

Yes—list the fee, then apply it as a discount when they buy. Example: “Personal styling session: $50” and “Styling credit applied: -$50.”

How do I add embroidery or monogram fees?

Break out setup and per-item stitching so teams and schools see the math. Example: “Embroidery setup: $25” and “Left chest logo, 12 shirts @ $6: $72.”

What’s the clean way to show returns, exchanges, and restocking?

Show the return as a negative line, then any restocking or exchange difference. Example: “Return: denim jacket: -$98,” “Restocking fee: $9.80,” “Exchange upcharge: $12.”
