The Late Fee Invoice is a essential business document used when a payment becomes overdue according to the original payment terms agreed between parties. This document type is specifically designed to comply with New Zealand commercial law and fair trading requirements, providing a formal mechanism for businesses to recover additional costs incurred due to late payments. The Late Fee Invoice must include specific elements such as the original invoice reference, clear calculation of late fees, GST considerations, and payment instructions. It is commonly used across various industries in New Zealand when payment terms have been breached, and serves as an important tool in the accounts receivable process, potentially forming part of the documentation trail if legal action becomes necessary.
