From 1 January 2027, UAE businesses start issuing structured e-invoices in the PINT AE format over the Peppol network. The format is strict: one wrong document type, transaction flag or tax category code and the invoice is read differently by your customer's system and by the FTA. To help finance and ERP teams get ready, PTG Consultant has launched a free e-learning course: UAE E-Invoicing – PINT AE Scenario Lab (Module E1).
What the course covers
- 8 short video lessons with voiceover and captions, from the UAE mandate and the anatomy of a PINT AE invoice to hands-on testing.
- All 18 official PINT AE examples, one by one, each with an illustrative UAE business case.
- Document types (380 tax invoice, 381 credit note, 480 commercial invoice) and the 8 transaction flags, including free zone, deemed supply, margin scheme, summary invoices, continuous supplies, disclosed agents, e-commerce and exports.
- Tax categories (standard, zero-rated, exempt, out of scope, reverse charge, margin) and predefined endpoints 97, 98 and 99 for buyers who are not on Peppol.
- Credit notes and why negative invoices are not allowed.
- Practice in the PTG PINT AE readiness tool (Tool 04): compare each official example with your own ERP output.
- Six 60-second revision reels, a final exam and a PTG certificate you can add to LinkedIn.
Who should take it
CFOs, finance managers, accountants, tax teams and ERP consultants (Odoo, Zoho, SAP, Oracle, Dynamics and others) who must make sure every invoice their system produces meets the PINT AE rules before go-live.
