Step by step
Preparing TallyPrime for UAE e-invoicing
Update TallyPrime
Move to the latest TallyPrime release and confirm with Tally or your Tally partner which release supports UAE e-invoicing.
Clean your party masters
Each VAT-registered customer needs a correct 15-digit TRN and a full address with the emirate.
Clean your stock item masters
Each item needs a clear name and description and the right VAT treatment: standard, zero rated, exempt, out of scope or reverse charge.
Appoint your ASP in EmaraTax
Select Tally Software Solutions FZCO, or another accredited provider, in EmaraTax. Your Peppol participant ID is 0235 followed by your 10-digit TIN.
Test, then go live
Send test invoices and credit notes, check rejections, and confirm how incoming supplier e-invoices are recorded in TallyPrime.
Before you go live
What to check in your TallyPrime company
VAT classifications
Zero-rated, exempt, out-of-scope and reverse charge supplies are classified correctly, not entered as 0% standard.
Credit notes
Credit notes reference the original invoice number.
Foreign currency
Non-AED invoices show the VAT total in AED and the exchange rate.
Multiple companies
If you run several companies in TallyPrime, or are part of a VAT group, confirm with your ASP how each legal entity is onboarded and identified.
Who supports you
Agree who fixes rejected invoices: Tally, your Tally partner or your accountant.
Data checklist
What every e-invoice must carry.
From the UAE e-invoicing specification, PINT AE. These apply whatever software you use. Peppol: PINT AE specific rules (opens in a new tab)
- Your TRN
- 15 digits, starting with 1 and ending with 03, exactly as on your VAT certificate (IBR-132-AE).
- Customer TRNs
- Stored for VAT-registered customers; mandatory when an invoice line is VAT reverse charge (IBR-103-AE).
- VAT category per line
- Each line needs a category: S standard, Z zero rated, E exempt, O out of scope, AE reverse charge or N standard rate additional VAT (IBR-139-AE, IBR-145-AE).
- Document types
- Tax invoices (380), invoices out of scope of tax (480), credit notes (381) and credit notes for goods or services (81). Credit notes must reference the original invoice (IBR-055-AE).
- Item name and description
- Every line needs both (IBR-025, IBR-125-AE), so short codes alone are not enough.
- Foreign-currency invoices
- Show the VAT total in AED and the exchange rate when the invoice is not in AED (IBR-159-AE, IBR-175-AE).
- Addresses
- Seller and buyer addresses need address line 1, city and emirate code: AUH, DXB, SHJ, UAQ, FUJ, AJM or RAK (IBR-128-AE, IBR-143-AE, IBR-144-AE).
- Line VAT amounts
- VAT is carried per line, and is zero on reverse charge and zero-rated lines (IBR-162-AE, IBR-165-AE).
