Fatal — invoice rejected Amounts & totals UAE-specific rule PINT-AE 2026.5

How to fix aligned-ibrp-058 in UAE e-invoicing

What is aligned-ibrp-058?

aligned-ibrp-058 is a fatal validation rule in the UAE's Peppol PINT-AE e-invoicing specification — one of the UAE-specific rules. It is checked against allowances and charges and belongs to the Amounts & totals rule group. An e-invoice that fails aligned-ibrp-058 is rejected by the Accredited Service Provider gateway before it reaches the FTA.

What the official rule says

Either both or neither Charge base amount (ibt-100) and percentage (ibt-101) MUST be provided.

UAE impact: this is a fatal rule specific to the UAE PINT-AE profile — an invoice failing it is rejected at the Accredited Service Provider gateway before it ever reaches the FTA. A rejected invoice means resubmission delays, and late transmission risks the AED 100-per-invoice penalty under Cabinet Decision No. 106 of 2025.
