Tracked hours flow straight into a polished invoice — no copy-paste, no manual math.
Use an estimate when a client needs to approve scope, price, tax treatment, and payment terms before work starts. For Iran, the document should show the seller, buyer, line items, currency, expected VAT treatment, and total payable amount. Domestic invoice and tax-reporting amounts are normally expressed in Iranian rials, even where the commercial discussion also references another currency.
Keep the estimate separate from the final tax invoice. Covered taxpayers under Iran's Point-of-Sale Terminals and Taxpayer System law must issue electronic invoices through the Taxpayer System, and those invoices carry a unique tax invoice number. An estimate should collect the details that make that later step easier, especially buyer identifiers and structured line-item data.
A practical estimate starts with seller details, buyer details, issue date, estimate number, validity period, project description, and payment terms. Add each good or service as a separate line with a goods or service identifier when available, quantity or unit, unit amount, discount, VAT and duties amount, and payable total. This structure matches the data expected in Iranian electronic invoice formats.
For business-to-business work, collect the buyer economic number or national ID before the estimate is accepted. Tax invoices identify the seller with the Iranian tax or economic identifier, and electronic invoices also connect the document to the seller's tax memory or taxpayer-terminal identity. Missing identifiers often force rework after approval, when the client expects a fast invoice.
Iran uses VAT, called مالیات بر ارزش افزوده, for taxable supplies of goods and services and for taxable imports unless a statutory exemption applies. The permanent VAT law sets the general tax and duties rate for ordinary taxable goods and services at 9%, but annual budget laws can change the effective rate for a fiscal year. Check the transaction year before applying tax.
Exports of goods and services through official exit points are outside the ordinary domestic VAT charge, and VAT paid on eligible exported goods can be refunded under the VAT law. Do not treat every foreign-client estimate as automatically tax-free without checking whether the supply and exit documentation qualify. The estimate should state the assumed VAT treatment plainly so both parties approve the same commercial basis.
A one-off template works for a simple quote with fixed prices, known buyer details, and no need to connect approved work to tracked hours. It is enough when you only need a clean PDF or editable document that captures scope, IRR amounts, VAT assumptions, and the fields required to prepare the final invoice later.
A managed workflow fits recurring client work, changing rates, multi-person projects, or time-and-materials billing. Everhour separates internal cost rates from client-facing billable rates, supports per-person defaults and per-project overrides, preserves dated rate history, and prices billable work by project, member, or task. That matters when estimates must reflect approved rates before tracked time turns into an invoice.

No. An estimate is a pre-approval commercial document, while covered taxpayers issue electronic invoices through Iran's Taxpayer System. The electronic invoice carries a unique tax invoice number generated and recorded through the taxpayer terminal or tax memory mechanism. Use the estimate to collect the fields needed for that later invoice.
Domestic invoice and tax-reporting amounts are normally expressed in Iranian rials, Iran's official currency. Commercial parties may reference another currency for negotiation, but the estimate should still make the IRR amount clear when the transaction will be reported domestically. This avoids exchange-rate confusion at the invoice stage.
The permanent VAT law sets the general tax and duties rate for ordinary taxable goods and services at 9%. Annual budget laws can change the effective rate for a fiscal year, so the transaction year must be checked before calculating tax. Exempt supplies and qualifying exports need their own treatment.
For business-to-business electronic invoices, the buyer economic number or national/legal-person identifier is part of the buyer information. Collect it before approval, along with the buyer's legal name and address. Waiting until invoice creation slows billing and increases the chance of mismatched records.
Exports of goods and services through official exit points are outside the ordinary domestic VAT charge, and VAT paid on eligible exported goods can be refunded under the VAT law. The estimate should state the assumed export treatment and keep supporting details available. Do not replace the tax line with a vague note.
Everhour separates internal cost rates from client-facing billable rates, with default per-person rates and per-project overrides. Rate changes can apply from a chosen date, so older work keeps its original calculation while new estimates and invoices use the current pricing.
Everhour Billing & Invoicing uses uninvoiced billable time and expenses to generate invoices, with line items grouped by project, task, person, date, or another available breakdown. Non-billable work stays out of the invoice amount, and invoiced time is marked to prevent accidental reuse.
Create the estimate, then keep approved rates connected to time and billing. Everhour gives teams dated billable rates and project pricing that support cleaner client invoices.
