Canonical: https://www.invoqk.com/templates/quote-template

A quote tells a client what the work costs before it starts. This sample has a fixed-price line, an hourly line and an extra, plus a validity date and a deposit note, so you only change the numbers.

## What this template includes

- Your business and the client's details
- Quote number and a valid-until date
- Itemised lines with quantity, price and total
- Deposit and acceptance terms
- Space for notes and exclusions

## How to use this template

### Open the template

Click the button above. The editor opens with the lines, notes and payment terms already filled in, so you start from a working invoice instead of a blank page.

### Replace the sample data

Swap in your own business details, your client, the real quantities and prices. Tax and totals recalculate as you type, so there is no manual arithmetic to get wrong.

### Download or send it

Export a PDF, or create an e-invoice (XRechnung or ZUGFeRD) when your client needs one. Save the invoice to your account to track it until it is paid.

## Questions about this template

### What should a quote include?

Your details, the client, a quote number and date, itemised work with prices, the total, the date the quote stays valid until, and payment or deposit terms.

### How long should a quote be valid?

14 to 30 days is common. Use a shorter period when your costs change quickly, such as materials.

### Is a quote legally binding?

That depends on your country and wording. In many places an accepted quote forms a contract, so check the terms before sending.

### Can I turn the quote into an invoice?

Yes. After the client accepts, convert it to an invoice in the editor and the lines carry over.

Template text, not legal or tax advice. Check the wording against your own situation or ask your accountant.
