Well, if it were genuinely required, it's not a problem. I could generate as many invoices as I need and deliver 'em electronically, if only the program in question hadn't appeared to demand a paper invoice delivered by boat. But the key word in that sentence is "need."
All the euro-bros jumping on this thread to sneer about how it's not that hard to make an invoice are completely missing the point. Obviously it's not that hard. I do it all the time for one-time advertising deals when companies ask nicely. But it clearly isn't an absolute requirement of EU tax law, given as how nobody else that deals with US affiliates is doing it. Notice how nobody from Europe talking shit in this thread has managed to cite or link to a single web resource advising that this is actually an insurmountable requirement for paying an affiliate from Europe. They just sneer and pose and act all superior.
