FAQ
Is a receipt a legal document?
It is simply a written record that a payment was received. Whether it has any legal effect or must contain certain details depends on where you are and the situation. This template is a general reference, not legal advice.
Does the site calculate sales tax?
No. Tax rules differ by place and by item, so there is no tax rate in this template. If tax applies, type the tax amount yourself and it is added to the total. Leave it empty if there is none.
How are the totals calculated?
Each unit price is read in cents and multiplied by the quantity using whole numbers, so there are no rounding errors such as 0.1 + 0.2 = 0.30000000000000004. A price with more than two decimals is rounded to the nearest cent.
Is what I type stored anywhere?
No. The document is built inside your browser. Nothing is sent to a server or saved, and it disappears when you close or reload the page.
