Peppol e-invoicing
The UAE is mandating e-invoicing through the Peppol framework, with requirements phased in from January 2027 for large taxpayers and July 2027 for all businesses.
Aarvo is building Peppol compliance through integration with certified access points. This means UBL 2.1 XML invoice generation meeting PINT AE specifications, Tax Data Document (TDD) generation for FTA, and AS4 transport and SMP registration through the access point network.
FTA compliance
Aarvo generates reports and returns formatted for Federal Tax Authority requirements. VAT return data, excise calculations, and supporting documentation are all structured to meet FTA submission standards.
Multi-currency
UAE businesses frequently deal in multiple currencies. Aarvo supports multi-currency transactions with automatic exchange rate conversion, keeping your books accurate regardless of which currencies your invoices and expenses are in.
