Daribatech Achieves Prestigious ASP Accreditation for E-Invoicing in UAE

Daribatech Receives ASP Accreditation from UAE Ministry of Finance

Daribatech, a leading tax technology firm based in the UAE, has recently announced a significant milestone in its journey toward enhancing digital compliance for businesses in the region. The company has been recognized as a pre-approved Accredited Service Provider (ASP) by the UAE Ministry of Finance (MoF) for the national Electronic Invoicing System (EIS). This development marks Daribatech's role as a crucial intermediary, enabling UAE enterprises to issue, validate, and exchange structured electronic invoices in alignment with the country's Peppol-based Continuous Transaction Control (CTC) framework.

As the deadline for compliance approaches, with a mandated date of January 1, 2027, to fully transition to structured e-invoicing formats, businesses in the UAE are under pressure to adopt these new compliance measures quickly. Large companies with annual revenues exceeding AED 50 million need to select an accredited solution provider by October 31, 2026, a critical precondition to facilitate their transition.

The accreditation of Daribatech is a welcome relief for many businesses scrambling to meet these new e-invoicing standards. They are now able to begin onboarding and testing immediately through the EmaraTax portal, giving them a head start on this compliance journey.

Significance of ASP Accreditation

The approval from the UAE MoF empowers Daribatech to provide a comprehensive technological infrastructure that is essential for businesses to fulfill their e-invoicing obligations. The services offered include:

- Data Validation: The Dariba Control Studio (DCS) platform allows users to validate and correct vital data before submission to the Federal Tax Authority (FTA).
- Compliance Creation: Daribatech's solutions facilitate the creation and validation of structured XML invoices, compliant with both the PINT-AE standard and UAE VAT regulations.
- Integration Support: The company ensures seamless integration with various ERP and accounting systems, simplifying the implementation process for businesses.
- Secure Transactions: Their system provides secure transmission of e-invoices across the Peppol network, minimizing risks associated with data sharing.
- Data Residency Assurance: All data processes remain within the UAE, adhering to local data sovereignty regulations.

Given the stringent compliance deadline, companies that postpone selecting an ASP may face penalties reaching AED 5,000 per month for non-compliance. Daribatech is encouraging organizations to kickstart their onboarding processes to facilitate sufficient time for integrations, data mapping, testing environments, and training sessions before the go-live date arrives.
