PINT AE validation rule for UAE e-invoices

What it means

The invoice must identify the seller by at least one of these: a seller identifier, a legal registration identifier or a tax identifier.

How to fix it

Add a seller identifier, the seller's legal registration identifier or the seller's tax identifier.

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