What it means
The VAT point date (BT-7), when present, must be a valid date with a year from 2000 to 2099. In UBL invoices and credit notes, this is cbc:TaxPointDate.
Why it matters
The VAT point date provides timing information for VAT. It needs to be a valid date within the year range allowed by this rule.
How to fix it
Find the VAT point date, which your software may call the tax point date. Check the year, month and day against your records and correct any error. Do not remove the date merely to clear this error without checking whether your invoice needs it. Export the corrected file and check it again.
Once the file is corrected, check it again for free: Check an e-invoice
