Who this page is for

This page explains how suppliers, freelancers, contractors and service providers should invoice Latimer Tuition Ltd for approved work, services or products supplied to us.

Latimer Tuition is an online-first UK tuition business. We help families find experienced tutors and support tuition through online lesson arrangements, tutor matching, direct tutor contact, session management and payment processing. This supplier page is here to make invoicing simple, especially for people who are new to freelancing, self-employment or running a small business.

This guide is for external suppliers. It is not for parent or student billing queries — please use our contact page for those — and it does not replace any separate tutor payment process used by Latimer Tuition.

Quick answer: address your invoice to Latimer Tuition Ltd and email it as a PDF to the invoice inbox shown further down this page. You do not need a purchase order number to invoice Latimer Tuition. If we have given you a project reference, purchase order, booking reference or named Latimer contact, include it on the invoice because it can help us approve it faster. If we have not given you one, leave that field blank and do not delay sending your invoice.

Before you create your invoice

Before invoicing us, check that:

  • The work, service or product was requested or approved by Latimer Tuition.
  • The price, rate or quote has been agreed.
  • You know whether you are invoicing as a sole trader, partnership, limited company or other business.
  • You know whether you are VAT-registered.
  • You have the correct bank details for payment.

What your invoice must include

A clear invoice helps us approve and pay you promptly. Please include the following information.

Your legal name
Your full legal business name. Sole traders should include their own name and any trading name, for example: Jane Smith trading as Smith Editorial.
Your address and contact details
A postal address, email address and, where helpful, a phone number, so we can query the invoice if needed.
Your company number
If you are a limited company, include your registered company number. Sole traders usually do not have one.
Your VAT number
Include this only if you are VAT-registered. Do not add VAT if you are not VAT-registered.
Invoice number
A unique invoice reference created by you, for example JS-2026-018. Do not reuse invoice numbers.
Invoice date
The date you issued the invoice. This is not always the same as the supply date.
Supply date or tax point
The date the goods were supplied or the service was completed. For a service period, show the period covered.
Bill to details
Latimer Tuition Ltd and the billing address on this page. Use our legal name, not just the trading brand.
Description of the supply
A clear description of what you supplied, including project names, hours, dates or item names where relevant.
Quantity and unit price
The amount supplied (for example 6 hours, 1 annual licence, 25 printed items) and the agreed price per unit or hourly/day rate, so the calculation is clear.
Net amount
Total before VAT, if VAT applies. Non-VAT suppliers can show a simple total.
VAT rate and VAT amount
Only if you are VAT-registered and VAT applies. The common UK VAT rate is 20%, but check your own VAT position.
Total due
The total amount you are asking us to pay. Make this easy to find.
Bank details
Account name, sort code and account number. International suppliers should add IBAN, BIC or SWIFT where needed. The account name should ideally match your supplier name.
Payment terms
Your payment due date or agreed payment terms. Our standard term is 30 calendar days from receipt of a valid invoice.
Latimer reference (optional)
A named Latimer contact, project name or PO/reference if one was supplied. A purchase order number is not required.

VAT guidance

If you are VAT-registered

If you are VAT-registered and the supply is taxable, please issue a VAT invoice. Your invoice should show your VAT registration number, the VAT rate, the VAT amount and the total payable including VAT, with enough detail for the goods or services to be identified.

If you are not VAT-registered

You can still invoice Latimer Tuition. Do not add VAT to your invoice. You may add a note such as:

Not VAT-registered — no VAT charged.

Latimer Tuition’s VAT number

Latimer Tuition Ltd’s VAT number is GB385897519. You do not usually need to include our VAT number on a standard UK supplier invoice unless your accounting system asks for it or the VAT rules for your supply require customer VAT details.

How to send your invoice

Please send one invoice per PDF. If you need to send more than one invoice, send each as a separate attachment with a clear filename.

  1. Create your invoice

    Use your accounting software, your own template or one of the downloadable templates on this page.

  2. Save it as a PDF

    Please avoid sending screenshots or image-only invoices where possible.

  3. Email it to our invoice inbox

    Send the PDF to the invoice email address shown in the next section.

  4. Use a clear subject line

    For example: Invoice JS-2026-018 — Smith Editorial — May proofreading.

  5. Attach supporting documents only if relevant

    A signed quote, timesheet or delivery note can help us approve the invoice faster.

  6. Keep a copy for your records

    Keep the invoice and any supporting records for your own accounts.

Payment terms and processing

Valid supplier invoices are paid within 30 calendar days from receipt of a valid invoice, unless different terms have been agreed in writing.

A valid invoice is one that contains the details needed to identify the supplier, the service or goods supplied, the amount due, the correct VAT treatment and the payment details. If an invoice is missing important information, we may need to ask you to correct it before payment can be processed.

Payment is usually made by bank transfer to the account details shown on your invoice. If your bank details change, please notify us by email. For security, we may carry out checks before paying new or changed bank details.

Latimer Tuition does not require suppliers to include a purchase order number. Some larger organisations require a PO number before they will pay an invoice; we do not. If you have not been given a PO number, you can still invoice us. To help us approve your invoice quickly, include any of the following if you have them: the name of the Latimer Tuition person who asked you to supply the work, the project name, the month or service period, or an agreed quote, proposal or contract reference.

Common reasons invoices are delayed

Invoices are most often delayed because one or more details are missing or unclear. Before sending your invoice, check that:

  • It is addressed to Latimer Tuition Ltd.
  • It uses the current billing address on this page.
  • It has a unique invoice number.
  • It includes your legal name and address.
  • The description of the work, service or product is clear.
  • VAT has been handled correctly.
  • Your bank details are included.
  • The invoice is attached as a readable PDF.
  • The invoice total matches the agreed quote or rate.
