PINT AE validation rule for UAE e-invoices

What it means

When a VAT accounting currency is given, it must differ from the invoice currency.

How to fix it

Remove the VAT accounting currency when it is the same as the invoice currency.

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

عندما تُذكر عملة احتساب VAT، يجب أن تختلف عن عملة الفاتورة.

احذف عملة احتساب VAT إذا كانت هي نفسها عملة الفاتورة.

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