What Is UAE E-Invoicing?
Electronic invoicing (e-invoicing) is the process of generating, transmitting, and validating invoices in a structured digital format such as XML or JSON, based on UBL or PINT standards.
The UAE e-invoicing system is built on the Peppol 5-corner model, where invoices are exchanged through government-accredited service providers, ensuring:
Secure invoice transmission
Real-time validation
Standardised VAT data exchange
Reduced fraud and improved transparency
This framework replaces traditional invoice formats and manual reporting with a fully digital, compliant process.
