BR-O-11

Validation message

An Invoice that contains a VAT breakdown group (BG-23) with a VAT category code (BT-118) "Not subject to VAT" shall not contain other VAT breakdown groups (BG-23).

Explanation

When the VAT breakdown has a 'not subject to VAT' entry, EN 16931 allows no other VAT category on the same invoice. Supplies not subject to VAT and other supplies belong on separate invoices.

How to fix

Check which category is wrong. Ask the seller for a corrected invoice with a single category, or to invoice the other items separately.

  • EN 16931 (UBL)
