UAE accredited e-invoicing service providers (ASP list)

What an ASP does

The UAE uses a decentralised 5-corner model built on Peppol. Your ASP is corner 2. It receives invoice data from your system, validates it, converts it to the UAE standard XML format where needed and sends it to your customer's ASP, which is corner 3. In parallel it reports the tax data to the Federal Tax Authority, which is corner 5.

Your customer's ASP does the same on the receiving side. Both ASPs pass confirmations back to their clients. Our PINT AE guide walks through the full sequence.

An ASP does not fix your data. If the ERP sends a wrong tax category or a missing TRN, the invoice fails validation, and a rejected invoice has not been issued.

Pre-approved or accredited?

In 2025 the Ministry first published a list of "pre-approved" service providers under Ministerial Decision No. 64 of 2025. That decision has since been repealed and replaced by Ministerial Decision No. 168 of 2026, on eligibility criteria and the accreditation procedure. The old pre-approved page on mof.gov.ae now redirects to the accredited list.

The Ministry's October 2026 programme briefing counted 65 accredited and 5 pre-approved providers, with more in review. On 5 November 2026 the official list showed 86 accredited providers. Contract only with a provider on the current list, and check its accreditation number.

The official list, as published

The table below copies the company names and accreditation numbers exactly as the Ministry publishes them, in its alphabetical order. The Ministry's page also gives each provider's website and named contacts. The list is updated periodically, so use the official page as the final word before you sign.

The list includes entities of SAP, Zoho and Tally, alongside the large audit firms and specialist e-invoicing networks. An ERP vendor's own ASP can be convenient, but it is not automatically the best fit for a multi-system business.

How to choose an ASP

The Ministry's document "Considerations for selecting an Accredited Service Provider" (version 1.1, 28 October 2026) groups the questions under experience, geographical reach, product ownership, integration, compliance and security, support SLAs, pricing and scalability. From our ERP work, these six criteria decide most selections.

1. Accreditation. Check the provider and its accreditation number on the current list. Ask when it was accredited and how long it has been a Peppol service provider.
2. PINT AE support. Ask which PINT AE version it validates against today and how fast it updates when the specification changes.
3. ERP connectors. Ask for a working connector or API for your exact ERP and version, such as Odoo, NetSuite, SAP Business One, Dynamics 365 Business Central or Zoho. Ask who maintains it.
4. Arabic and local support. Check Arabic support for users and documents, and whether support is delivered by the ASP itself or subcontracted.
5. Pricing model. Subscription, per transaction or tiered. The Ministry notes that under MD 168 of 2026, ASPs must give each end user 100 free e-invoice exchange and reporting services per year from contract signature. Ask about every other fee in writing.
6. SLA and exit. Get uptime and response times in the contract, and confirm how long the ASP retains your invoices and how you export them if you switch.

Our longer guide on how to choose an ASP adds contract terms and a 10-question checklist.

Onboarding: who does what

Under the Ministry's guidelines, you start onboarding yourself through the FTA's EmaraTax system after you sign with the ASP. Each member of a VAT tax group is onboarded separately with its own participant identifier, and group members may use different ASPs. Newly established businesses in scope must onboard before issuing their first invoice.

Businesses with revenue of AED 50m or more had to appoint an ASP by 30 October 2026 and go live by 1 January 2027. Everyone else must appoint by 31 March 2027. Missing the date is a penalty under Cabinet Decision No. 173 of 2026; see UAE e-invoicing penalties.

Where Kaido fits

Kaido is not an ASP, holds no ASP accreditation and earns nothing from any ASP choice. We stay neutral. We shortlist providers that fit your ERP, then build and test the connection, clean the master data and train the finance team.
