Psychology
Bill dreams reflect a sense of debt, not only money but favours unreturned and tasks postponed. An unfamiliar bill may mirror feeling burdened with unfair responsibility.
Folklore and history
Japanese custom disliked carrying debts into the new year, and merchants collected credit accounts by New Year's Eve. Receiving a bill symbolises burden; paying it signals resolution and restored luck.

This site's view
In this site's view, notice the sender and the amount. A bill from an old friend or late relative is no demand for money but a reminder of words or thanks left unsaid. An amount too long to read may mean you rate your burdens far larger than they are.
Going deeper: our reading
Sometimes an envelope arrives and you can guess its contents before opening it, so it ends up sitting on the desk. Paper bills are giving way to emails and app alerts, but the heavy feeling of unread notices piling up is the same. In this site's reading, notice whether you opened the bill. Opening it straight away suggests you are ready to face what worries you head-on. Shoving it unopened into a drawer, or pretending not to see it, shows that awareness of putting something off is weighing on you. This is our speculation, but if the amount turned out smaller than feared, the dream is telling you your worry has grown bigger than reality. A charge you did not recognise may mean you feel saddled with responsibilities that belong to others. You only learn how heavy something really is once you open it.
What to do on waking
Settle one payment or task you have been putting off. If you owe thanks rather than money, a quick message counts as payment too.
