What it means
The third address line of the place where the goods or services are delivered (BT-165) must not be longer than 100 characters. Spaces count, but extra spaces at the start or end and repeated spaces are ignored. In UBL it is the Line element inside the address line group of the delivery location's address.
Why it matters
Romania's rules for RO e-Factura set this limit and a breach is fatal. The file is rejected and the invoice is not accepted until the line is shortened.
How to fix it
In your invoicing software, open the delivery address on the invoice (sometimes called the ship-to address) or in the customer's record. Find the third address line and shorten it to 100 characters or fewer, or clear it. Delivery instructions such as 'ring twice' do not belong in this field.
The rule as published
