E-invoicing in Dubai
UAE e-invoicing compliance for Dubai businesses
Dubai has the UAE's largest concentration of trading, logistics, and SME businesses, spread across mainland and a dense cluster of free zones — a high volume of invoices, often across multiple entities and ERPs, running through the same e-invoicing mandate.
One mandate, no exceptions
The FTA e-invoicing mandate is federal.
There is no separate rule set for Dubai — the same PINT-AE structure, ASP requirement, and deadlines apply whether a business is registered on the mainland or in a free zone, anywhere in the UAE. Common free zones in Dubai include Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC), Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA), Dubai Multi Commodities Centre (DMCC), and businesses in every one of them fall under the same national mandate as any mainland company.
What Kodowo actually does
Your ERP, connected to whichever ASP you choose.
Works with the ERP you already run
Connects via API, CSV, XLSX, or JSON — no replacing your accounting system to comply.
Validates before it ever reaches your ASP
Checks every invoice against the PINT-AE structure first, so errors are caught before submission, not after rejection.
ASP-agnostic by design
Not tied to one Accredited Service Provider — works with whichever one you've already appointed or plan to appoint.
Nothing is silently dropped
Every invoice reaches a terminal ledger state, cleared or a specific failure state, with a plain-English explanation of what happened.
