What it means
When the seller has a tax representative (BG-11), the representative's postal address (BG-12) must have a city (BT-66). A blank value or one with only spaces counts as missing. In the XML it is cbc:CityName in the cac:PostalAddress of cac:TaxRepresentativeParty.
Why it matters
A tax representative is appointed to deal with VAT on the seller's behalf, so the recipient and the tax authority need a complete address to place them. Without a city the file fails the Romanian rules and is rejected.
How to fix it
Check the tax representative details in your invoicing software, usually in the seller or company settings, and fill in the city or town. If the representative is in Bucharest, the city must be a sector code, see BR-RO-160. If the seller has no tax representative, clear that whole section so that no empty block is sent.
