عدم الامتثال لفرض إصدار الفاتورة الإلكترونية (E-Invoicing Non-Compliance & ASP Delays)

1 verified sources

Definition

E-invoicing mandate (Jan 1, 2027) requires ASP appointment by July 2026. Metals traders with >AED 50M turnover must embed commodity-specific data (product code, weight, assay grade, valuation date, spot price) into e-invoices. Manual processes cause: (1) invoice format errors detected by ASP (missing fields); (2) rework and resubmission delays; (3) lost audit trail for commodity valuations; (4) FTA penalties for non-compliant invoices.

Key Findings

  • Financial Impact: FTA fine for e-invoicing non-compliance: AED 5,000–50,000 per invoice batch; ASP onboarding + custom integration: AED 30,000–80,000; estimated annual loss AED 80,000–250,000 (500–2,000 invoices/year with 2–5% error rate)
  • Frequency: Monthly (invoice issuance); discovery during FTA inspection or ASP audit trail review
  • Root Cause: Lack of ASP-compatible invoicing templates for commodity products; manual commodity data entry into invoice systems; siloed pricing feeds and invoicing platforms; delayed ASP vendor selection
