1. Montana-specific invoice requirements
- Sales tax line: 0.00% state rate. Most services rendered in Montana are exempt from sales tax — but materials, parts, and tangible goods are not. No general state sales tax. Resort areas may have local sales tax up to 3%.
- Late-fee cap: Montana statute Mont. Code §31-1-106 caps interest on unpaid invoices at 1.5% per month. Spell out the rate in writing on every invoice and in your contract — courts won't enforce undisclosed fees.
- Right-to-cancel notice: Customers in Montana get 72-hour cancellation rights on certain home-services contracts. Disclose this in your terms.

4. Send and follow up
