Validation rules

UBL-SR-13

The seller tax registration identifier (BT-32) appears more than once — only one non-VAT PartyTaxScheme may carry a CompanyID.

BT-32 — Seller tax registration

Detected by
tier 3 — KoSIT validator (authoritative)
Reachability
Only reachable when validating your own XML — normbill-generated documents cannot trigger it

The serializer emits at most one FC PartyTaxScheme, from invoice.seller.tax_number.

How to fix it

Keep a single non-VAT PartyTaxScheme (TaxScheme/ID 'FC') on the supplier party. Through normbill, invoice.seller.tax_number is a single value.

UBL-SR-13 auf Deutsch — was bedeutet der Fehler?

Der KoSIT-Validator lehnt die Rechnung ab, weil die Steuernummer des Verkäufers (BT-32) mehrfach vorkommt — nur ein PartyTaxScheme ohne VAT-Schema darf eine CompanyID tragen.

So beheben Sie den Fehler

Behalten Sie genau ein Nicht-VAT-PartyTaxScheme (TaxScheme/ID „FC“) beim Verkäufer. Über normbill ist invoice.seller.tax_number ein einzelner Wert.

Or try it live: drop any XRechnung XML on the free validator — same KoSIT-backed report, no account.
