1. New Hampshire-specific invoice requirements
- Sales tax line: 0.00% state rate. Most services rendered in New Hampshire are exempt from sales tax — but materials, parts, and tangible goods are not. No state or local sales tax. Meals/rooms tax 8.5%.
- Late-fee cap: New Hampshire statute N.H. Rev. Stat. §336:1 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 New Hampshire get 72-hour cancellation rights on certain home-services contracts. Disclose this in your terms.
2. Translator line items + standard terms
Every translator invoice in New Hampshire should itemize work clearly. Standard translators use Net 30 terms with no deposit required.
- Per-word translation — billed by word (~$0.18 default).
- Editing / proofreading — billed by word (~$0.06 default).
- Certified translation — billed by flat.
- Rush fee — billed by pct.
3. Translator licensing in New Hampshire
Court and USCIS work requires certified or sworn translator status (varies by jurisdiction). ATA certification widely recognized.
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. New Hampshire customers expect digital payment options today — accepting card and ACH typically reduces days-to-paid by 30–50%.
