Invoicing in UAE Highlights

The UAE will roll out mandatory e-invoicing in phases: a voluntary pilot begins July 1, 2026, large businesses (AED 50 million+ revenue) must go live from January 1, 2027, all remaining businesses from July 1, 2027, and government entities from October 1, 2027. The standard VAT rate is 5%, regulated by the Federal Tax Authority (FTA). E-invoices must comply with the PINT AE (Peppol International Invoice – UAE) format and be transmitted through Accredited Service Providers (ASPs) on the Peppol network.

  • Archive Location: Taxpayers remain legally responsible for archiving, even where storage is outsourced to an ASP
