UAE Sets July 2026 Deadline for Mandatory E-Invoicing: What Businesses Must Do Now

  • UAE businesses must select an accredited e-invoicing service provider (ASP) by July 1, 2026.
  • E-invoicing rollout starts January 1, 2027, for companies with annual turnover over Dh50 million; smaller businesses follow later in 2027.
  • E-invoicing replaces paper/PDF invoices with machine-readable formats for real-time reporting, improving VAT and Corporate Tax processing.
  • Companies must review systems, upgrade infrastructure, and train staff to avoid disruption.
  • The system uses a Decentralised Continuous Transaction Control and Exchange (DCTCE) model, initially for B2B and B2G transactions.
