Preparing for the UAE
E-Invoicing Mandate?

We’ve Got You Covered

Stay Compliant. Stay Ahead.

SunTec Business Solutions empowers businesses in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to meet the 2026 e-invoicing mandate with confidence. With deep domain expertise, proven success in the GCC, local presence, and a robust, Peppol-ready product – SunTec Xelerate E-Invoicing – we simplify compliance and turn regulatory change into a competitive edge.

The UAE is set to implement the first phase of its e-invoicing regime by July 2026, led by the Federal Tax Authority (FTA) under the Ministry of Finance. Aimed at automating processes, reducing VAT loss, enhancing transaction security, and supporting economic growth, the initiative will follow the Decentralized Continuous Transaction Control and Exchange (DCTCE) model using the Peppol framework. E-invoices must be issued in digital formats like XML or JSON to ensure consistency and interoperability. As timelines accelerate and requirements evolve, CFOs need a future-ready, industry-agnostic product that ensures seamless compliance while preserving financial agility and control. SunTec delivers exactly that.

The UAE plans to implement mandatory e-invoicing starting from July 2026, with a phased rollout based on business size and sector.

All VAT-registered businesses in the UAE must adopt VAT e-invoice systems for their B2B and B2G transactions by July 2026.

The UAE’s e-invoicing framework utilizes the Peppol 5-corner model, involving the supplier, buyer, their respective Access Point service providers, and the central tax authority. This model ensures standardized and secure invoice exchange.

Only structured electronic formats like XML or JSON are acceptable. Formats like PDFs, scanned copies, or Word documents are not considered valid e-invoices.​
