Overview

Your AI Shield for UAE Peppol Compliance

UAE Ministerial Decision No. 243 of 2025 mandates Peppol-based e-invoicing using a five-corner model: buyer, seller, two accredited Peppol Access Points, and the UAE tax authority (FTA). All businesses must transact via an Accredited Service Provider (ASP). The UAE has published a Peppol PINT data dictionary for invoice fields. Non-compliant invoices will be rejected, halting trade. InvoStaq connects your ERP to an accredited Access Point and ensures every invoice passes Peppol PINT validation before transmission.

Legal Framework

Legal Framework & References

The UAE e-invoicing mandate is established by Ministerial Decision No. 243 of 2025 (Electronic Invoicing System) and Decision 244 of 2025, under the UAE VAT Law (Federal Decree-Law No. 8 of 2017). These decisions specify the Peppol-based framework, the five-corner model with the FTA as a central authority, and penalties for non-compliance. The official UAE e-Invoicing Guidelines (V 1.0, Feb 2026) detail all requirements, timelines, and technical specifications.
