Tax representative’s VAT number is missing

ErrorEN 16931BT-63

Also available in:NederlandsFrançais

What it means

If the seller’s tax representative is included, their VAT number (BT-63) must also be provided. The representative’s details lack that number.

Typical causes

  • Only the representative’s name and address were entered
  • An unused tax representative record was exported

How to fix it

  1. Check whether the seller uses the tax representative shown.
  2. Enter that representative’s VAT number, or remove an unintended representative record.
What the rule says (technical)

Each Seller tax representative party (BG-11) shall have a Seller tax representative VAT identifier (BT-63).

Add cac:PartyTaxScheme/cbc:CompanyID to the tax representative.
