PINT AE validation rule for UAE e-invoices

What it means

Each entry in the VAT breakdown must show a VAT rate, unless its category is exempt or not subject to VAT.

How to fix it

Add the VAT rate to every VAT breakdown entry that is not exempt and not out of scope.

The official wording of this rule is in the PINT AE specification published by OpenPeppol.

In Alya Books

Alya Books builds the invoice XML so this holds; the official rule files confirm it on our sample documents.

بالعربية

يجب أن يُظهر كل قيد في تفصيل VAT معدل VAT، إلا إذا كانت فئته معفاة أو غير خاضعة لـ VAT.

أضف معدل VAT إلى كل قيد في تفصيل VAT ليس معفى وليس خارج النطاق.

See this rule in the interactive reference, or pre-check an invoice file.
