Asking Friends to Invoice Query

    I'm a musician that's registered as a sole trader but from time to time I have people perform live with me as guests for which I pay them (not large fees and prob never more than €100). The people I perform with are close friends and I feel a bit naff asking them to invoice me for their fees but I also need to show that these are legitimate expenses when I submit records to my accountant. Is there any workaround here? I know one venue in the city that would have bands sign receipts in a receipt book on payment for their own records. Would this hold up under scrutiny from Revenue?

    There is actually a danger that you would be considered an employer in these cases, if Revenue look at your records.

    If your friends also invoice and are paid by the venue, you may have an out, if they don't look too close, but, depending on your turnover levels this could be looked at as VAT avoidance.
