Issuing a “blank” invoice can have unpleasant consequences for both the employer and the employee. One of them is the payment of the VAT shown on the said invoice. If an employee issues it, the employee will be liable. However, if the employer “failed to exercise reasonable care to control the activities of the employee in question”, VAT will have to be paid by the employer.
