UAE e-invoicing implementation and ASP readiness
From 2027, UAE B2B and B2G invoices must be sent as structured e-invoices through an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) and reported to the FTA. We get your ERP, data and ASP ready before your go-live date, and you avoid the AED 5,000-a-month penalty for being late.
- Businesses with revenue of AED 50 million or more (live 1 January 2027)
- All other VAT-registered businesses (ASP by 31 March 2027, live 1 July 2027)
- Companies on Odoo, Zoho Books, QuickBooks or a local ERP
- Groups already live on ZATCA Phase 2 in Saudi Arabia
- Readiness review of your system and invoice flows
- ASP shortlist, comparison and onboarding support
- Data field mapping to the UAE data dictionary
- Customer, supplier and product master data cleanup
- Odoo or ERP configuration and tax code mapping
- End-to-end testing of invoices and credit notes, then go-live support
Problems we solve
Choosing an ASP
Providers differ on price per document, ERP connectors, Arabic support and onboarding time.
Missing data fields
The UAE data dictionary needs fields many systems don't hold today.
Dirty master data
Wrong customer TRNs, names and product classifications will cause rejected invoices.
Tax code mapping
Standard, zero-rated, exempt, out-of-scope and reverse charge must each map correctly.

Frequently asked questions
When does UAE e-invoicing become mandatory?
1 January 2027 for businesses with revenue of AED 50 million or more, 1 July 2027 for other businesses, and 1 October 2027 for government entities.
What is an ASP?
An Accredited Service Provider licensed by the Ministry of Finance. It validates and exchanges your e-invoices over the Peppol network and reports the tax data to the FTA.
What if I missed the ASP deadline?
Businesses with AED 50 million revenue or more had to appoint an ASP by 30 October 2026. The penalty for not implementing on time is AED 5,000 per month, so appoint one and start setup now.
Is Odoo ready for UAE e-invoicing?
Odoo is building UAE e-invoicing support through ASP connectors. We check your version and data, configure it and test it with your chosen ASP.
