Discuss Peppol integrationWhere the ASP fits
A UAE Accredited Service Provider validates, converts and exchanges invoice data and supports the required reporting flow. Businesses choose an ASP through the official UAE process and enter into a commercial agreement before onboarding.
What your ERP must provide
Your source system must supply complete customer, tax, line-item, currency, allowance, charge, payment and reference data. Integration may use APIs, files or middleware depending on the systems and provider.
