PEPPOL-COMMON-R045

Peppol BIS 3.0 WARNING

Official rule text

Tax Code (Codice Fiscale) must be stated in the correct format

What this error means

This is a Peppol BIS 3.0 rule - a requirement added on top of EN 16931 for invoices exchanged over the Peppol network. Your invoice may be valid EN 16931 and still fail this check.

How to fix it

  1. Read the requirement in the rule text above - Peppol rules are usually precise about the expected element or format.
  2. Check the electronic address identifiers (endpoint IDs) and their scheme codes - they are the most frequent Peppol failures.
  3. If you do not send through Peppol, validate against plain EN 16931 instead.
