  4. Set the invoice number and date

    Use a sequential invoice number and the date of issue.

Simplified vs full tax invoice

A full tax invoice is always allowed. A simplified one is an option in two cases only, and it gives a VAT-registered customer less to work with.

When you can use it

Full
Always. It is the default under Article 59(4).
Simplified
Only if the customer is not VAT registered, or is registered and the supply is AED 10,000 or less (Article 59(5)). Not for reverse-charge supplies.

Customer name, address, TRN

Full
Required where the customer is VAT registered
Simplified
Not required

Invoice number

Full
Sequential or unique number required
Simplified
Not listed in Article 59(2), but numbering is still good practice

Date of supply

Full
Required if different from the issue date
Simplified
Not required

Line detail

Full
Unit price, quantity, VAT rate and amount for each line
Simplified
A description and the totals are enough

Discount, gross total, VAT in AED

Full
Each shown separately, plus the exchange rate if not in AED
Simplified
Total consideration and VAT charged, in AED

When to issue

Full
Within 14 days of the date of supply (Article 59(13))
Simplified
On the date of supply (Article 59(13)(a))

Under e-invoicing

Full
Issued as a structured electronic invoice once e-invoicing applies to you
Simplified
Not available for electronic invoices: Article 59(16) switches off Clauses 2 and 5
