BR-IC-11

Validation message

In an Invoice with a VAT breakdown (BG-23) where the VAT category code (BT-118) is "Intra-community supply" the Actual delivery date (BT-72) or the Invoicing period (BG-14) shall not be blank.

Explanation

For an intra-community supply the invoice must state when the goods or services were supplied: with the actual delivery date or an invoicing period. VAT law requires the time of supply on every invoice anyway.

How to fix

Ask the seller for a corrected invoice that states the delivery date or the invoicing period.

This field is required by §14 Abs. 4 Nr. 6 UStG. A missing or incorrect value may affect input VAT deduction (Vorsteuerabzug) for the recipient.
