PINT AE validation rule for UAE e-invoices
Each VAT breakdown entry must show a VAT rate. Entries that are exempt or not subject to VAT must show no rate.
Add the VAT rate to each VAT breakdown entry, and remove it from exempt and out-of-scope entries.
The official wording of this rule is in the PINT AE specification published by OpenPeppol.
Alya Books builds the invoice XML so this holds; the official rule files confirm it on our sample documents.
يجب أن يُظهر كل قيد في تفصيل VAT معدل VAT. أما القيود المعفاة أو غير الخاضعة لـ VAT فيجب ألا تُظهر معدلاً.
أضف معدل VAT إلى كل قيد في تفصيل VAT، واحذفه من القيود المعفاة وغير الخاضعة.
See this rule in the interactive reference, or pre-check an invoice file.
