VAT and e-invoicing for small shops
If your shop is VAT registered, the till must issue a compliant tax invoice. The UAE is introducing e-invoicing in phases, and your accredited provider and dates depend on your business. Our e-invoicing page records the position and the primary sources. We tell you in writing what our POS does today and what it will connect to.
