Invoicing & payments

Waverley Council’s standard payment terms are 30 days after satisfactory delivery of the goods or services AND receipt of a correctly rendered invoice.

Where a contract allows for it, you may be paid progressively for satisfactory completion of the work. This is commonly called a milestone payment. In this case, the contract will indicate dates or work completion targets that must be met before you can submit your invoice for payment. Milestone invoices are paid under the same terms.

Please ensure that the purchase order or relevant contract number is quoted on the invoice. Use this number as a reference in any payment enquiries.

Our preferred method of payment is electronic funds transfer. For prompt payment, please ensure that all your details including ownership changes, trading names, insurances and bank details are up to date.
