Free UAE E-Invoice Generator — Build a PINT-AE (Peppol) Invoice & Export XML

From 2026, businesses in the UAE must issue B2B and B2G invoices as structured electronic files in the PINT-AE (Peppol) format — not PDFs or scans. This free generator lets you build a compliant e-invoice, see exactly how your data maps to the PINT-AE data model, and export the UBL 2.1 XML. It's the fastest way to pressure-test your invoicing data before you go live. When you're ready to actually issue and transmit e-invoices, you'll need an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) — Fastlane connects you to the right one.

Build Your E-Invoice

Fill the fields, add your line items, then generate a UBL 2.1 (PINT-AE) XML you can copy or download.

New E-Invoice

Supplier & buyer TRN drive the Peppol endpoint automatically.

Please fix the following before generating:

    From — Your Company Supplier
    Bill To — Customer Buyer
    Invoice details
    Items tax category & type required per line
    Item details Type Qty Unit Rate Tax VAT Amount
    Sub Total 0.00
    Total VAT 0.00
    Total (AED) 0.00

    The PDF and Excel are for your records and to send alongside — the structured XML is the legal e-invoice, generated per MoF E-Invoicing Guidelines V1.0. Responsibility for invoice accuracy stays with the supplier.

    Invoice ready? Generating a file doesn't submit it. To actually issue an e-invoice, it must be transmitted through an accredited ASP and reported to the FTA.

    How the generator works

    Three steps from raw invoice data to a compliant PINT-AE XML file.

    1

    Enter the parties & invoice details

    Add your supplier and customer details. Each TRN automatically generates the correct Peppol electronic address (0235:TIN) — including the special endpoints for export, deemed supply and buyers not yet onboarded.

    2

    Add your line items

    Set the tax category per line — Standard 5%, Zero-rated, Exempt, Out of scope, Reverse charge or Margin — and mark each line as Goods, Services or Both. VAT and totals compute in AED automatically.

    3

    Generate the PINT-AE XML

    The tool validates your data against the mandatory fields, then produces UBL 2.1 XML in the PINT-AE profile. Copy it or download the file to test with your ERP or ASP.

    Does this make me FTA-compliant? Do I still need an ASP?

    Straight answer: this tool gives you the right file — but the UAE model doesn't let you send it yourself.

    • The format is correct. The XML follows the PINT-AE (Peppol) UBL 2.1 data model — the same structure your invoices must use at go-live.
    • But exchange must go through an ASP. Under the UAE 5-corner model, a valid e-invoice is transmitted between businesses through Accredited Service Providers and reported to the FTA in near real-time. You cannot email the XML or upload it to the FTA yourself.
    • Every in-scope business appoints exactly one ASP for sending and receiving — including free zone companies doing B2B or B2G.
    • Use this tool now for readiness: confirm your master data (TRNs, tax categories, item types, AED VAT) maps cleanly to PINT-AE, so your data is clean before onboarding.

    What is PINT-AE?

    PINT-AE (Peppol International Invoice — UAE profile) is the official data dictionary for UAE e-invoices. It defines 135+ data elements, with roughly 50 mandatory fields such as supplier and buyer TINs, invoice type codes, line-item VAT in AED, and tax category codes. Only structured XML in this format is legally valid.

    Not sure which fields apply to you?

    The mandatory fields change by scenario — free zone, export, reverse charge, credit note, self-billing. Our PINT-AE format guide breaks down all 51 fields and the correct values for each case.

    When is UAE e-invoicing mandatory?

    Phased by revenue. If you're at or above AED 50M, the ASP appointment deadline is the one to watch.

    31 Jul 2026
    Revenue ≥ AED 50M — appoint your ASP
    1 Jan 2027
    Revenue ≥ AED 50M — mandatory go-live
    1 Jul 2027
    Revenue < AED 50M — mandatory go-live

    Pilot and voluntary adoption open 1 July 2026; government entities go live 1 October 2027. See the full timeline and penalties →

    Frequently asked questions

    E-invoice generator, PINT-AE format and UAE compliance.

    Is the Fastlane e-invoice generator free?+
    Yes, it is completely free. You can build a PINT-AE (Peppol) invoice and export the UBL 2.1 XML at no cost, with no sign-up required.
    Does this tool make my invoices FTA-compliant?+
    The tool produces the correct PINT-AE (Peppol) UBL 2.1 structure. However, under the UAE 5-corner model a valid e-invoice must be transmitted through an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) and reported to the Federal Tax Authority. Use the tool to check your data maps to PINT-AE; appoint an ASP to actually issue live e-invoices.
    What file format does the generator export?+
    It exports UBL 2.1 XML following the PINT-AE (UAE Peppol) profile. PDFs, scans and paper invoices are not valid e-invoices for B2B and B2G transactions once your go-live date arrives.
    Do I still need an ASP if I use this generator?+
    Yes. You cannot submit the XML to the FTA yourself. Every in-scope business must appoint exactly one Accredited Service Provider for sending and receiving e-invoices. Fastlane connects you to an accredited provider and cleans your data first.
    Does it handle free zone, export and reverse-charge invoices?+
    Yes. Each line supports Standard 5%, Zero-rated, Exempt, Out of scope, Reverse charge and Margin scheme tax categories, plus item type (Goods/Services/Both). Export and deemed-supply transactions generate the correct Peppol endpoints.
    Are VAT amounts shown in AED?+
    Yes. VAT and totals are always calculated and reported in AED, even for foreign-currency invoices, as required under the UAE e-invoicing framework.
    When does e-invoicing become mandatory in the UAE?+
    The pilot and voluntary phase starts 1 July 2026. Businesses with revenue of AED 50 million or more must appoint an ASP by 31 July 2026 and go live 1 January 2027. Businesses under AED 50 million must appoint by 31 March 2027 and go live 1 July 2027. Government entities go live 1 October 2027.
