Am confused as to why you can't raise an invoice? It wouldn't take a few minutes extra to fill in a template and attach it to the mail??
Is this for a part period or something? If he is this flexible surely he will accept your invoice even if it isn't on the agreed deadlines?
Without a formal invoice aren't you on a wish and a prayer that he will get it cleared and indeed pay you in time? I presume you are taking in to account the payment terms in your time factorying?

Certainly I will raise an invoice, and no it's not a first-time contract.
The issue was more payment deadlines. I will be sending an email saying here's what it's going to be and a formal invoice later saying the same thing.

In an ideal world you want all your invoices to match all your incoming payments. If you receive a payment before you had time to raise an invoice, in reality I see no problem (so long as you do actually get around to creating that invoice).
Just don't get in the habit of not raising invoices - its essential you do this.

Anything I should be aware of here, just wondering if the above could be misconstrued, why did he not raise an invoice to get paid, type thing.
If it's not your first contract, why don't you know this already?
Also, your agent is not treating you as a business and does not see you as one. That is a bad thing. He wouldn't pay any other supplier without an invoice, would he?

Why not use the likes of XXX and do it properly?
Or do you not have a business bank account?

Why not just send an invoice with the quick email to the agent?
