BR-S-02

Error (blocking) EN 16931 (UBL)EN 16931 (CII)

Official rule text

[BR-S-02]-An Invoice that contains an Invoice line (BG-25) where the Invoiced item VAT category code (BT-151) is "Standard rated" shall contain the Seller VAT Identifier (BT-31), the Seller tax registration identifier (BT-32) and/or the Seller tax representative VAT identifier (BT-63).

What it means

Standard-rated lines (BT-151 = S) require a seller tax identifier: the VAT number (BT-31), a local tax registration (BT-32) and/or the tax representative's VAT number (BT-63). The rule fires when none of the three is in the XML - common when the seller master data was mapped without the VAT number.

How to fix it

Add the seller VAT identifier in cac:PartyTaxScheme/cbc:CompanyID with cac:TaxScheme/cbc:ID = VAT (BT-31) under the supplier party, or provide BT-63 on the tax representative if the seller invoices through one.

Business terms involved: BT-151BT-31BT-32BT-63

🇫🇷 En français

Des lignes au taux normal (BT-151 = S) exigent un identifiant fiscal du vendeur : numéro de TVA (BT-31), immatriculation fiscale locale (BT-32) et/ou numéro de TVA du représentant fiscal (BT-63). La règle tombe quand aucun des trois n'est dans le XML - fréquent quand la fiche vendeur a été mappée sans le numéro de TVA.

Correction : Ajoutez l'identifiant TVA du vendeur dans cac:PartyTaxScheme/cbc:CompanyID avec cac:TaxScheme/cbc:ID = VAT (BT-31) sous la partie vendeur, ou fournissez le BT-63 sur le représentant fiscal si le vendeur facture via l'un d'eux.
