Dynamics 365 Finance - Meet requirements for electronic invoicing in the United Arab Emirates

We are announcing the ability to run Microsoft Dynamics 365 ERP in the United Arab Emirates to comply with mandatory e‑invoicing regulations for local and global users in Dynamics 365 Finance. This feature will reach general availability on December 1, 2026.

How does this affect me?

This feature enables compliance with UAE electronic invoicing requirements for business-to-business (B2B) transactions. The mandate applies from January 1, 2027, for large and major companies, and from July 1, 2027, for small and medium‑sized companies.

The solution follows the Decentralized Continuous Transaction Control and Exchange (DCTCE / 5‑corner) model. Invoices and credit notes generated from sales orders, free text invoices, and project invoices can be transmitted in the UAE extension of the PEPPOL International (PINT) XML format through the PEPPOL Delivery Network, using EDICOM as an Accredited Service Provider in UAE.

Additionally, to Electronic Invoicing Service-based end to end solution, the functionality for e-invoices XML files generation will be also enabled based only on the Electronic Reporting framework.

What action do I need to take?

This message is for awareness, and no immediate action is required. To use this feature when available, Microsoft Azure Key Vault and Blob storage must be configured in advance, and the e-invoicing add-on must be installed prior to the release.
