You will receive "successful completion confirmation" emails on the last day of the month in respect of all jobs successfully completed within that month. You will need to send us an invoice detailing these jobs between the 1st and 10th day of the subsequent month (by email, as an attachement - inovices should NOT be pasted into the body of the email) for all jobs delivered within the preceding month. Invoices should be sent to invoices@semos.co.uk .

For example, if you were to complete three jobs over the course of August 2007, we would send you successful completion confirmation emails on August 31st, and you would need to send us a single consolidated invoice detailing these three jobs between September 1st and September 10th. The invoice would be settled by the end of September.

Please note that a successful completion confirmation email will no longer be sent upon completion of the the job. All confirmation emails will be sent at the end of the month.

Invoices should NOT be sent in after the 10th of the month. Any invoices sumbitted after the 10th in any given month will be settled by the end of the following month.

Your invoice will need to be sent to invoices@semos.co.uk .

Please feel free to use the following invoice template (you may need to copy and paste this into your browser address line): www.box.net/shared/static/sbbfb4f5oc.doc . You are of course welcome to use your own format so long as it includes the following critical information:

- Your business name
- Your business address
- Your invoice number/reference (this is very imporant reference generated by you and must uniquely identify the invoice - no two invoices issued by you should have the same invoice number/reference)
- The date the invoice was issued
- Your VAT number, if applicable

- Our business name: Semos Language Services Limited
- Our business address: 6 Neptune Terrace, Sheerness, Kent ME12 2AW United Kingdom

- The following information about each job (the information should be set out in a table with the following fields):
Job description (translation, proofreading, editorial consultancy), Source language(s), Target language(s)
Our reference number
The PO (Purchase Order) date
The date the job was delivered
Agreed rate
Number of words
Amount in GBP due

- The total in GBP for the invoice (including VAT, if applicable)

- Your preferred payment method. We recommend the following methods:

1. If you have a UK bank account: BACS (direct Bank Transfer - you will need to provide your bank details, including sort code and account number)

2 If you have do not have a UK bank account: PayPal (please visit www.paypal.com) or GPB cheque (these take around 45 days to be "negotiated" by the bank in your home country)

We now make hundreds of payments per month and would thus rather avoid the administrative burden of sending cheques to individuals with UK bank accounts.
