Choosing and Working with Your ASP

Evaluation and selection of UAE e-Invoicing Accredited Service Providers

Businesses subject to UAE e-Invoicing need to work with an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) within the UAE framework. Choosing a provider should therefore be based on more than price alone.

Hussain Al Shemsi helps businesses define their requirements, compare relevant provider capabilities and coordinate onboarding and implementation activities with the selected ASP.

Areas to consider when selecting an ASP

  • Accreditation status
  • Compatibility with the business’s ERP/accounting environment
  • Integration approach
  • Support for required invoice volumes and business scenarios
  • Onboarding approach and timeline
  • Testing support
  • Error and exception handling
  • Operational support model
  • Reporting and monitoring capabilities
  • Data security and service arrangements
  • Commercial model and contract terms
  • Experience with relevant systems or business complexity

Our role

We remain independent from the technology-selection decision unless otherwise disclosed. Our focus is to help the client define requirements, evaluate options consistently, document decision factors and coordinate the selected provider with finance and IT stakeholders.

The current official ASP list should always be checked through the Ministry of Finance list of Accredited Service Providers because accreditation status can change.

From selection to onboarding

After selection, the work typically moves into contracting, EmaraTax onboarding, technical integration, test preparation and go-live planning.

ASP activity should connect with the broader E-Invoicing Implementation Roadmap and Implementation Support workstreams.
