UAE e-invoicing for your ERP. Built to PINT-AE.
einvoice-bridge is the integration layer between your ERP and your Accredited Service Provider. It extracts invoice data, builds PINT-AE UBL 2.1 XML, and catches validation errors before your ASP does.

When UAE e-invoicing becomes mandatory
The go-live date depends on your annual revenue. Your ASP must be appointed first — then your ERP must send it valid invoices.

You keep your ERP and your ASP. We build the part in between.
Your ASP handles Peppol transmission and FTA reporting. But the invoice it receives must already be correct. That ERP-side work is what einvoice-bridge does.
From ERP record to valid PINT-AE invoice in four steps
-
01 — Extract
Read invoice data from your ERP
Through the ERP's REST API, a database export, or a CSV/JSON file. One adapter per ERP.
-
02 — Map
Normalise to one canonical model
An ERP-independent invoice model that covers all 51 mandatory fields in the FTA Data Dictionary.
-
03 — Validate
Catch errors before submission
Readable business-rule checks first, then the official PINT-AE Schematron on the generated XML.
-
04 — Hand off
Send valid XML to your ASP
PINT-AE UBL 2.1 XML goes to your Accredited Service Provider, with every step recorded.
Built to the specification, not around it
Implemented against the UAE MoF Electronic Invoicing Guidelines v1.1 and the official Peppol PINT-AE documentation.
-
PINT-AE XML generation
UBL 2.1 XML with the correct CustomizationID, ProfileID and UAE-specific fields.
urn:peppol:pint:billing-1@ae-1 -
Two-layer validation

UAE e-invoicing questions
Short answers to what finance and IT teams ask first.
When is e-invoicing mandatory in the UAE?
Businesses with revenue of AED 50 million or more must comply from 1 January 2027 (ASP appointed by 31 July 2026). Businesses below AED 50 million must comply from 1 July 2027 (ASP appointed by 31 March 2027). Government entities follow on 1 October 2027.
What is PINT-AE?
PINT-AE is the UAE version of the Peppol International (PINT) billing model. Invoices are exchanged as UBL 2.1 XML, identified by urn:peppol:pint:billing-1@ae-1.
Is einvoice-bridge an Accredited Service Provider?
No. einvoice-bridge works on your side, before the ASP. It turns your ERP data into valid PINT-AE XML and hands it to the ASP you have chosen. The ASP transmits it over Peppol and reports to the FTA.
Do I still need an ASP?
Yes. Only accredited providers can exchange e-invoices on the UAE Peppol network. einvoice-bridge works with your ASP; it does not replace it.
Which ERPs can you connect?
TallyPrime and CSV/JSON import are available today. Adapters for Odoo, SAP S/4HANA, Microsoft Dynamics 365 and custom systems are built per engagement on the same core engine.
How are invoice errors handled?
Two validation layers run before anything reaches the ASP: business rules with readable messages, then the official PINT-AE Schematron. Every result is stored in the audit trail.
