| Appoint an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) in EmaraTax | by 31 Mar 2027 |
| E-invoicing mandatory (go-live) | 1 Jul 2027 |
Is Tally an accredited ASP?
Yes, Tally is an ASP itself. "Tally Software Solutions FZCO" appears on the MoF list of accredited providers with accreditation no. 162503. TallyPrime is the product name. In EmaraTax you must select the legal entity name, Tally Software Solutions FZCO.
Tally's pages do not publish e-invoicing pricing. Ask your Tally partner for transaction or subscription costs. One Tally FAQ also says some features become available "after the launch", so confirm which features are live on your release.
Prerequisites
- TallyPrime 7.1 or later. Tally names 7.1 as the release that supports UAE e-invoicing onboarding.
- An active Tally.NET ID (name, password and phone number).
- An email address registered for e-invoicing.
- Working EmaraTax credentials with access to the VAT-registered entity.
- The correct legal name and TRN for the entity.
Settings and data to prepare
Tally says to "complete the regulatory details" in these masters. The PINT AE fields that each master needs to supply are listed below.
| Master | What to complete |
|---|---|
| Company | Legal name as on the trade licence, TRN, TIN (first 10 digits of the TRN), address with emirate, and base currency AED |
| Party (customer) ledgers | Legal name, TRN and TIN for B2B customers, full address with emirate and country, and B2B or B2C type |
| Stock items / services | VAT rate and nature (standard, zero-rated, exempt or out of scope) and a clear description |
| Unit of Measurement | Map each unit to a standard code. Do not leave free-text units such as "pcs" or "box" unmapped |
| Currency | AED as base currency. Store exchange rates on foreign-currency invoices so the AED VAT amounts can be shown |
| Sales and tax ledgers | Configure them to match the e-invoicing requirements, with VAT ledgers mapped correctly |
| Credit notes | Record a reason on every credit note. Reason codes are mandatory in PINT AE v1.0.1 |
Step-by-step preparation
- Now: upgrade every installation to TallyPrime 7.1 or later and renew your TSS (Tally Software Services) subscription if it has lapsed.
- Now: confirm that your Tally.NET ID works and that you have your EmaraTax login.
- Nov to Dec 2026: clean up the Party masters. Add the TRN and TIN for every VAT-registered customer and complete their addresses.
- Nov to Dec 2026: clean up the Stock Item and UoM masters (tax nature, unit codes and descriptions), then review the ledgers.
- By Jan 2027 (ASP appointment): open the correct company, then go to Gateway of Tally > Exchange > All VAT Options > e-Invoice Login & Logout. Enter your Tally.NET ID and complete the sign-up form.
- Same session: press V to open EmaraTax, log in, and select your VAT-registered business.
- Same session: choose Tally Software Solutions FZCO, fill in the requested details, and Submit. Do not close the window before you see that the submission succeeded.
- Same session: back in TallyPrime, press S (Refresh Status).
- Same session: check E-INVOICING > ASP. It should show Tally as your ASP, a confirmation message, and your Peppol ID.
- Feb to Jun 2027: record test sales vouchers, generate and exchange e-invoices, and use the e-Invoice report to check uploaded, pending, rejected and errored invoices. Train your staff on fixing rejections.
- 1 Jul 2027: every B2B and B2G tax invoice and credit note must go out as an e-invoice. Check the e-Invoice report every day.
Done by 31 Mar 2027? EmaraTax shows Tally as your ASP, and TallyPrime displays your Peppol ID.
