BR-13

Validation message

An Invoice shall have the Invoice total amount without VAT (BT-109).

Explanation

The invoice must state its total without VAT, the net amount after all invoice-level allowances and charges.

How to fix

Ask the seller for a corrected invoice that states the net total. When it is missing, the seller's invoicing software is usually the cause.

This field is required by §14 Abs. 4 Nr. 7 UStG. A missing or incorrect value may affect input VAT deduction (Vorsteuerabzug) for the recipient.
