Invoice late-payment interest Calculator

Calculate simple overdue interest using the applicable entered rate and compensation. This free invoice late-payment interest calculator shows the calculation and its assumptions so you can compare your own figures.

How the invoice late-payment interest calculation works

Simple interest = outstanding principal × entered annual rate × days overdue ÷ 365; entered compensation is added.

This arithmetic does not determine legal entitlement. Part-period payments require separate period calculations.

Using this calculator

  1. Enter your own figures in the labelled inputs. Keep the currencies, units and time periods consistent.
  2. Choose any applicable rate profile, pattern or assumption shown for this tool. Open additional inputs when relevant.
  3. Review late interest and outstanding principal and total due, then read the stated assumptions and eligibility conditions before using the result.
