Invoice templates for spray tan technicians billing clients for mobile spray tans, booth tans, and event group bookings.
A spray tan technician invoice is issued by a self-employed or freelance tanning specialist to clients for professional spray tan services. Spray tan technicians may operate from a fixed studio, use a sunbed or spray tan booth in a beauty salon, or provide a mobile service visiting clients at home or on location for events. Mobile spray tanning is a popular model in the UK, particularly for pre-holiday tanning, wedding parties, and photoshoots. Mobile technicians include travel costs in their pricing or add a travel surcharge for locations beyond their base area. Training from brands such as Sienna X, Fake Bake, or St Tropez is common in the UK tanning sector. Technicians must advise clients correctly on preparation (exfoliation, moisturising timing) and aftercare to achieve the best results.
| Service | Typical Rate | Unit |
|---|---|---|
| Individual spray tan | 35 | appointment |
| Mobile spray tan | 50 | visit |
| Group event rate (per person) | 28 | person |
| Bridal group booking (min 4 people) | 28 | person |
| Travel charge (beyond 10 miles) | 0.45 | mile |
| Express rapid tan | 45 | appointment |
For individual mobile visits, issue a simple invoice or receipt. For group bookings (hen parties, bridal parties, photoshoots), issue a formal invoice to the organiser. List the number of people, the rate per person, and any travel charges. Take a deposit for group bookings and wedding dates. Group event no-shows represent significant lost income given that you block out substantial time. A deposit of 20-30% is standard. For photoshoot or commercial bookings, treat these as commercial rate appointments. Negotiate a daily or per-person rate with the photographer or production company and issue a proper invoice to the booking party. Keep records of all income and expenses. Mobile tanning involves vehicle and product costs that are legitimately deductible business expenses.
