What is a Chauffeur Chauffeur invoice?

A chauffeur invoice records fees for professional, door-to-door passenger transport in a high-quality vehicle. UK chauffeurs require a Private Hire Vehicle (PHV) driver licence from the relevant licensing authority (TfL in London, or the local council outside London), and the vehicle requires a separate PHV licence. Chauffeur businesses typically operate executive saloons (Mercedes-Benz S-Class, BMW 7 Series), SUVs (Range Rover, V-Class), or luxury MPVs. Chauffeur services charge either a flat rate per journey (airport transfer, event transfer) or a day rate for corporate accounts. Wedding and special event bookings attract a premium. Clear invoicing with journey reference, vehicle, and chauffeur details supports corporate expense claims and gives clients the documentation they need for their own records.

How to invoice as a Chauffeur chauffeur

Chauffeurs working for corporate accounts should invoice weekly or monthly, covering all journeys in the period. Include a journey log showing date, pickup, destination, and charge for each trip. Corporate accounts departments need this for expense coding. For one-off bookings (airport runs, weddings), invoice in advance with full or majority payment before the journey. For wedding bookings, take a deposit at the time of booking to secure the date. Most professional chauffeurs now accept card payments or bank transfers. Avoid cash-only arrangements as they complicate bookkeeping and make VAT compliance harder.

Frequently asked questions

Do chauffeurs need a special licence?
Yes. A Private Hire Vehicle (PHV) driver licence is required. In London this is issued by TfL. Outside London, by the relevant local council. The vehicle also needs a separate PHV licence.
What cars do chauffeurs typically use?
Mercedes-Benz E-Class, S-Class, and V-Class are popular. BMW 7 Series, Range Rover, and Rolls-Royce for ultra-premium clients. Vehicles must be less than a specified age for most PHV licences.
Do chauffeurs charge VAT?
Yes, if VAT-registered. Passenger transport is standard-rated for PHV operators (not zero-rated like some public transport services).
What is a meet and greet service?
The chauffeur meets the passenger inside the terminal (not kerbside), holds a name board, and assists with luggage. Includes flight monitoring so the driver adjusts for delays.
Can I charge for waiting time?
Yes. State your free waiting allowance (typically 15–30 minutes for airports, 10 minutes elsewhere) and charge for time beyond that.
