The Cutting Table · a checklist answer

Can you put my company name and tax number on the invoice?

Also asked as:Can you amend the invoice with our company details?Please add our VAT number.

Accounts departments are stricter than any piping inspector, and I say that as a piping inspector. Here's how to get the paperwork right on the first ask.

The quick answer

The invoice can carry your company or organization name, billing address and tax or VAT number: ask, and the workshop issues a new invoice or amends the existing one for your accounts. If your accounts team needs it by a deadline, it can be sent straight away. Multi-piece orders work the same way, including one four-sofa order invoiced to an organization.

Have Maggie’s workshop cut this for you

Have the tape measure handy when they call. Old cushions shrink and sag; the seat underneath does not. — Maggie

Leave your details and the workshop will call you to confirm measurements, fabric, foam and piping. No prices, dates or payment on this page: it is a request, not an order.

Fabric · Foam · Pipingwhat the workshop will confirm with you

Fabric
The cover cloth: weave, color and care code.
Foam
The core: its density and thickness set the feel.
Piping
The corded seam edge: matching, contrast or none.
Only for this request: no marketing calls or texts. Outside the US, add the country code.
In inches: length × depth × thickness, plus any angles or cut corners.

* Required. A member of the workshop team will call you to talk it through; nothing is charged and nothing is made until you have agreed on every detail with them.

We use these details only to answer this request and make your cushion: your name and contact details, the cushion details and photos you send, the page you came from and the ad or link that brought you, if any. The workshop that makes the cushions receives them. We don't sell them or share them for advertising, and we delete requests after 24 months. Privacy notice for requests.

Nothing is made or charged until you approve the details.

What to send for a business invoice

  • The company or organization name, spelled exactly as your accounts team files it.
  • The billing address, if it differs from the delivery address.
  • Your tax or VAT registration number.
  • The deadline, if there is one, so the invoice goes out straight away.
  • Every piece on the order, so one invoice covers the lot.

Amend it, don't reorder

Already ordered under your own name? No need to start over, dear. One buyer needed company details and a registration number added for their accounts, and the workshop simply amended the existing invoice.

Larger orders run the same way. For an organization buying four modular floor sofas, the invoice went out right away with the organization's billing name and address on it. Does your accounts team need the invoice before the delivery lands, or after?

What slows the paperwork down

  • A brand nickname when accounts files the legal name.
  • A company name with no billing address.
  • A deadline nobody mentioned until the day it falls due.
  • Separate messages for each piece, when one list would do.

Bigger orders, same tidy paperwork

If the invoice is for a café, clinic or office, the commercial cushion Pattern covers the spec side, and what to send for a quote lists the sizes and counts the workshop needs. Send every size and quantity together and the package is priced as one.

An invoice can be amended after the order with the company name and tax number, so nobody has to cancel and reorder for the accounts team.

Buyer questions

  1. A common question

    Can you add my company name and VAT number to the invoice?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes. The invoice was amended with the company details and VAT number for the buyer's accounts.

  2. A common question

    Can the invoice be made out to our organization for an order of several sofas?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes. For a four-sofa order, an invoice with the organization's billing name and address was sent right away.

  3. A common question

    Is there a discount if we order several cushions at once?

    The workshop's answer

    Often, yes. Send every size and quantity in one message and the workshop quotes the lot as one package, which past multi-cushion orders found cheaper than pricing each piece alone. Ask for the shipping cost on the same quote.

  4. A common question

    Can you make floor sofa sets in bulk for a café, shop or playroom?

    The workshop's answer

    Yes: floor sofa sets with backrests and armrests have been made in custom sizes for shops, cafés and playrooms, and several sets are quoted together as one package. Get the production and delivery times in writing before you order, and leave a margin before opening day.

  5. A common question

    Do you sell wholesale, with a catalog or a minimum order?

    The workshop's answer

    There's no wholesale tier, line sheet, catalog or minimum order. Everything is handmade and quoted per piece; large runs of one size have been quoted lower per piece, so send the quantity along with the sizes.

Questions buyers ask next

Can I get the business invoice before the order ships?

Yes, if you need it for a deadline. Ask for the business invoice and it can be sent straight away, with the company name, billing address and tax number already on it.

Can one invoice cover several pieces?

Yes. A four-sofa order went on an invoice made out to the organization's billing name and address. List every piece in one message so the invoice and the package quote match.

What if the order is already placed under my personal name?

Ask for an amendment. Existing invoices have been amended to add company details and a VAT number for accounting, so there's no need to cancel and reorder.
