- The UAE has launched an optional B2B 4-corner Peppol e-invoicing framework, allowing suppliers and buyers to exchange structured electronic invoices via Accredited Service Providers (ASPs), with no data sent to the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) at this stage.
- This 4-corner model is a precursor to a mandatory 5-corner Peppol e-invoicing and e-reporting system, where the FTA will receive tax data in near real time, starting in phases from 2027 for large businesses, other businesses, and government entities.
- E-invoices must comply with the Peppol PINT-AE specification, using structured XML and meeting UAE VAT requirements; PDFs and paper invoices are not accepted.
- Businesses should onboard early via the EmaraTax platform by selecting an ASP and starting e-invoice exchanges to ensure readiness and avoid future bottlenecks.
