What to Include on a Production Assistant Invoice

Production assistant invoices should be tied to a project and clearly document shoot dates and rates.

  • Production company (optional)
Common PA line items
  • Day rate
  • Half-day rate
  • Overtime (hours)
  • Kit/gear fee
  • Mileage/local travel
  • Production support tasks (when billed separately)
Totals
  • Subtotal, tax (if applicable), total due

Day Rates, Half-Day Rates, and Overtime

Production work is commonly billed using day rates.

Typical structure
  • Day rate for standard shoot days
  • Half-day rate for short calls (when agreed)
  • Overtime billed as hours when shoots run long
Separating day rates and overtime on the invoice helps production accounting approve the payment quickly.

Role Clarity for Production Accounting

Production teams often book multiple support roles.

Best practices
  • List your role on the invoice (set PA, office PA, runner)
  • Include shoot dates clearly
  • Use the project name consistently across invoices
This helps payroll and accounting match your invoice to call sheets and bookings.

Kit Fees, Mileage, and Additional Support Charges

Some PA work includes reimbursable or add-on charges.

Common extras
  • Kit/gear fees for personal equipment
  • Mileage or local travel
  • Special support tasks if agreed as separate charges
Itemizing extras prevents confusion and keeps the invoice aligned with production approvals.
