1. North Dakota-specific invoice requirements
- Sales tax line: 5.00% state rate. Most services rendered in North Dakota are exempt from sales tax — but materials, parts, and tangible goods are not. State 5%; combined typically 6-8.5%.
- Late-fee cap: North Dakota statute N.D. Cent. Code §47-14-05 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 North Dakota get 72-hour cancellation rights on certain home-services contracts. Disclose this in your terms.
2. Therapist / Counselor line items + standard terms
Every therapist / counselor invoice in North Dakota should itemize work clearly. Standard therapist / counselors use Net 30 terms with no deposit required.
- Individual session 50-min — billed by session (~$165 default).
- Couples session 80-min — billed by session (~$245 default).
- Insurance superbill — billed by flat.
- Late-cancellation fee — billed by flat.
3. Therapist / Counselor licensing in North Dakota
State licensure required (LMFT, LCSW, LPC, PsyD, etc.). HIPAA compliance and informed-consent documentation required.
4. Send and follow up
Send the invoice the same day work completes. Use software that records open events and offers a one-click online payment so you don't need to chase a check by mail. North Dakota customers expect digital payment options today — accepting card and ACH typically reduces days-to-paid by 30–50%.
