Are You Ready for UAE E-Invoicing?
Ten short questions across master data, ERP connectivity, process maturity and mandate awareness. Get a 1–10 readiness score, a Red/Amber/Green band, and a prioritised list of what to fix before your deadline. Runs entirely in your browser — nothing sent to a server.
1.Do you know your customers' TRNs for every B2B customer?
PINT-AE mandatory field — missing TRN is the #1 rejection reason.
2.Does your accounting or ERP software export invoices as structured data (not just PDF)?
Excel, CSV, XML or API — anything TrustBill's connectors or watch-folder can read.
3.Is your customer master data clean — legal names, addresses, VAT categories, correct TRN format?
Bad master data breaks conversion at line one.
4.Do you already produce bilingual English/Arabic invoices where required?
The renderer is fixable; whether you have the Arabic data is the harder question.
5.When you issue credit notes, do they reference the original invoice number?
PINT-AE credit notes must reference the parent invoice UUID.
6.If you operate in or invoice free zones, do you know which zones are 'Designated Zones' for VAT?
DAFZA, JAFZA, DMCC, etc. — treatment differs materially.
7.Do you handle advance payments or deposits with a distinct advance invoice, not a note on the main invoice?
PINT-AE has a specific invoice type (386) for advance payments.
8.Have you decided which accredited service provider (ASP) you'll use?
The MoF list is public; TrustBill routes via Microvista Technologies.
9.Does someone on your finance or IT team know your mandate deadline?
Wave 1: 30 Oct 2026 appoint / 1 Jan 2027 go-live. Wave 2: 31 Mar / 1 Jul 2027.
10.Do you have a documented process for how invoices flow from creation to submission?
Even a one-page diagram is enough. No process = no rollback if something breaks.

Frequently asked questions
What score means I'm ready?+
8/10 or higher (Green band). At that point you have master data, ERP export, credit-note referencing, advance handling and an ASP decision in place — the remaining items are process polish rather than blockers.
Is my score audit-defensible?+
No. The scorecard is a self-assessment tool for internal planning. FTA compliance is determined by the actual invoices you submit and the underlying records — not by a score. That said, a low score is a reliable signal that you're not audit-defensible today.
Does TrustBill see my answers?+
No. All computation runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to a server. Refreshing the page clears your answers.
How long does it take?+
Under two minutes if you know your setup. If a question stumps you (typically the TRN capture or the ASP decision), that's the useful signal — mark it Partial or No and add it to your gap list.
Can I use this for multiple entities in a group?+
Yes — run it once per legal entity. Each entity has its own TRN, its own ERP setup, its own mandate wave and its own master data. Group-level averages hide entity-level problems.
