How to Issue Invoices for Mobile Toilets

Admin September 21, 2026

Invoicing for mobile toilets needs to be handled differently based on the nature of the lessee and the scenario. Details are as follows:

I. Corporate Rental Scenarios

  1. Jingdezhen Region

    • Invoicing Fees: Generally, no separate invoicing fees are charged, but it is necessary to confirm whether taxes are included in the quoted price. Regular corporate collaborations will provide compliant invoices. For short-term events (1-3 days), value-added tax (VAT) ordinary invoices or special invoices can be requested; for long-term projects (over 1 month), monthly settlement can be negotiated to reduce invoicing costs.
    • Discount Conditions: Discounts may be available for advance bookings or bulk rentals (e.g., 10 or more units). The cost breakdown and tax payer should be clearly specified in the contract.
  2. Hunan Region

    • Ordinary Invoices: When issuing VAT ordinary invoices for daily rental fees (200-500 yuan per unit), taxes are usually included in the quoted price.
    • Special Invoices: If a VAT special invoice is required, an additional 6% tax may be charged; for rentals of 10 or more units, a reduction in invoicing fees can be negotiated.
    • Special Services: Additional services such as nighttime transportation and installation and commissioning should have their invoicing status clearly specified in the contract to avoid subsequent disputes.

II. Individual Service Provision Scenarios

If an individual provides mobile toilet services as a business activity (e.g., short-term rentals), they need to issue invoices through the tax authorities. The process is as follows:

  1. Prepare Documents: Bring identification documents, service contracts or agreements, and other relevant materials.
  2. Fill Out the Application: Complete the "Application Form for Invoice Issuance", specifying the service content, amount, and invoice type.
  3. Pay Taxes: Pay value-added tax (usually 3% or 1%), additional taxes (such as urban maintenance and construction tax, education surcharge), and individual income tax (levied based on business income) according to the income.
  4. Receive the Invoice: After completing the tax payment, the tax authorities will issue a VAT ordinary invoice.

III. General Precautions

  1. Confirm in Advance: Before signing the contract, clarify the cost breakdown (e.g., rental fees, taxes, transportation fees), invoice type (ordinary invoice/special invoice), and tax payer to avoid verbal agreements.
  2. Compliance: Ensure the authenticity of the business, refrain from issuing false invoices or concealing income, and strictly comply with the "Invoice Management Measures" and tax laws.
  3. Long-Term Cooperation Discounts: For bulk rentals (e.g., 20 or more units in Hunan) or long-term collaborations (e.g., monthly settlement in Jingdezhen), strive for tax reductions or discounts to lower overall costs.

Tip: Policies may vary by region. It is recommended to follow the requirements of the local tax authorities or the lessor and consult professional tax personnel if necessary.
