Get your business ready for UAE eInvoicing with FactsERP.
FactsERP is an ASP-ready ERP designed to help businesses prepare their invoice data, workflows and integrations for the UAE eInvoicing mandate. It connects with your selected Accredited Service Provider while keeping your finance, sales and operational processes within your existing ERP environment.
What is eInvoicing?
It is the electronic creation and exchange of structured invoice data between suppliers and buyers, with the required tax information reported electronically to the UAE Federal Tax Authority.
What Is an Accredited Service Provider in UAE eInvoicing?
An Accredited Service Provider, or ASP, is an eInvoicing service provider accredited by the UAE Ministry of Finance.
Your ASP becomes an important part of the connection between your business systems and the UAE eInvoicing ecosystem.
Businesses can select an accredited provider and complete the required onboarding process.

Who needs to comply?
- UAE businesses that send or receive B2B invoices
- UAE businesses that deal with B2G invoices
- B2C is not in scope at this stage
What about B2C?
Transactions involving consumers who are not conducting business are currently outside the mandatory Electronic Invoicing scope.
Specific exclusions also apply to certain activities and transactions, so businesses with unusual transaction structures should check their individual position rather than relying on a general assumption.
Why eInvoicing matters?
Compliance first: Align with MoF/FTA rules by design
Speed: Automate validation and exchange; cut manual rework
Cost: Less paper, fewer errors, smoother approvals
Clarity: Real-time traceability and audit-ready records
Scale: PEPPOL connectivity supports cross-border trade
The usual hurdles (and how to avoid them)
|
Problem
|
Fix
|
|---|---|
|
Technical integration
|
Connecting eInvoicing to existing accounting/ERP stacks is complex. Field mapping, APIs, and workflow alignment can break if not engineered carefully.
|
|
Compliance complexity
|
Interpreting and applying UAE MoF/FTA rules is time-consuming. Templates, numbering, and validations must match PEPPOL and local mandates.
|
|
Data security & integrity
|
Invoices carry sensitive data. You need encryption, access controls, audit logs, and integrity checks to prevent leaks or tampering.
|
|
Data security
|
Encrypt in transit/at rest; strict access control.
|
|
People & partner readiness
|
Staff may resist process changes, and suppliers/customers may not be tech-ready. Expect training, phased rollout, and clear onboarding guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does FactsERP support ASP readiness for UAE eInvoicing?
Yes. FactsERP is built for ASP readiness and PEPPOL exchange, including pre-submission validation and error reporting.
Can we integrate eInvoicing with our existing systems and automate FTA filings?
Yes. FactsERP supports API integration for e-commerce, payments, WPS, open banking, plus VAT/excise returns and FTA filing.
Do you offer audit trails and role-based security?
Yes- your team gets seamless audit-trail management, secure document storage, retrieval, and role-based security.
Is FactsERP cloud-based or on-premise?
Both. Choose secure cloud or on-premise with UAE compliance standards and rich reporting options.
Do I need PEPPOL to comply?
Yes, the UAE uses the PEPPOL 5-corner model via Accredited Service Providers (ASP).
Do I still need a PDF version of an invoice?
A PDF can still be generated as a convenient human-readable representation of an invoice. However, a PDF on its own is not a UAE eInvoice. Businesses subject to the Electronic Invoicing System must retain the required electronic invoice data and associated records in accordance with UAE record-retention requirements.
Is B2C included?
Not currently. The mandate targets B2B and B2G.
