Ministerial Decision No. 64 of 2025 on Electronic Invoicing (as amended by Ministerial Decision No. 56 of 2026) sets information security and business continuity obligations for Accredited Service Providers, and demonstrating them in practice means holding a management system that a certification body will certify against ISO\/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO 22301:2019 — while a Ministry of Finance accreditation reviewer reads the same documents against the Decision's articles. Most documentation sets serve one audience; this one is written to withstand both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis toolkit is a single integrated management system, not two standards stapled together. A tiered documentation scheme runs from the apex IMS Manual and combined information security and business continuity policy, through operating procedures, into the forms, registers, checklists, guidance and training that produce the records both examiners will ask to see. A master Integration \u0026amp; Compliance Matrix traces every clause of both standards — and the Decision's key articles, including 5(2), 9, 17 and 18(2)(c) — to the specific document and record that satisfies it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat this system covers\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe system covers the full management-system lifecycle for both standards under one governance structure: context and scope, leadership and roles, integrated risk management, the Statement of Applicability and Annex A control management, competence and communication, internal audit, management review, nonconformity and improvement. Operationally it reaches into the controls an e-invoicing provider actually runs — access control and identity, cryptographic key and certificate management, logging and security operations, data residency and cloud security, supplier and third-party security, secure development, incident response, business impact analysis, continuity strategies and plans, ICT readiness, and a standing exercising and testing programme. Several regulator-facing mechanisms are built in as hard rules rather than suggestions:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRisk assessment and BIA run as two separate analytical streams, with BIA availability findings transferring into risk treatment — never merged into one exercise.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEvery change record carries an Article 18(2)(c) Ministry-notification gate; a blank gate blocks approval.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eArticle 9 safeguard controls can never be excluded from the Statement of Applicability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eValidated End User complaints cannot close without a corrective action, and no continuity plan may target objectives that do not trace to the approved BIA.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDedicated checklists cover ISO 27001 gap analysis, ISO 22301 readiness, Annex A controls, MD 64 regulatory compliance and the Ministry submission evidence index, while the legal register tracks the related instruments — the FTA reporting decisions, PINT AE data dictionary versions and emirate-level frameworks — as verifiable items rather than assumptions. A phased implementation roadmap and mapped guidance documents take a team from first placeholder to submission.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoftware houses, fintechs and billing platforms preparing an Accredited Service Provider application to the UAE Ministry of Finance; IMS managers, CISOs and business continuity coordinators tasked with achieving ISO\/IEC 27001 and ISO 22301 certification on an accreditation deadline; and consultants running ASP readiness engagements who need a defensible, article-traceable documentation base rather than generic ISMS templates. It suits both new market entrants building their first management system and established providers aligning an existing ISMS with the Decision's specific gates.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Apex Global Solutions AGS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57017075892564,"sku":"AGS-21-001","price":1850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1052\/4996\/4372\/files\/AGS-21-001.png?v=1788398435","url":"https:\/\/agskits.com\/products\/ims-for-uae-e-invoicing-accredited-service-providers-iso-iec-27001-iso-22301-md-64-2025","provider":"Apex Global Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
