UAE E-Invoicing Readiness & Implementation

UAE e-invoicing requires structured processes and systems; emailing a PDF is not the same as implementing the required framework. The entity’s scope, revenue and transaction types determine the applicable phase.

Map the compliance date to a practical project

We coordinate the readiness review with UAE tax and implementation specialists. Under Ministerial Decision 66 of 2026, in-scope persons with revenue of at least AED 50 million must appoint an Accredited Service Provider by 30 October 2026 and implement by 1 January 2027. Later phases and exclusions require their own assessment.

Information and documents

Provide entity and revenue information, invoice samples, software details and transaction volumes. The engagement identifies a gap assessment, provider brief and implementation schedule. Configuration, integration, testing and training are separately specified, with fees and responsibilities agreed before work starts.

Scope, fees and completion

Coutts Consultants coordinates the records and the appropriate accounting professional, with unresolved items referred for management approval. The quotation specifies periods, transaction volumes, outputs and any included submissions. Audit, additional tax advice and reconstruction of incomplete records are separately scoped where needed; management remains responsible for the information, approvals and payments.
