BR-RO-L206: Tax representative name must be 200 characters or fewer

In short

Fatal: fails the selected checks.

BR-RO-L206 means the name of the seller's tax representative (BT-62) is longer than 200 characters. Fix it by entering only the representative's name, or by removing the tax representative if the seller has none.

What it means

The name of the seller's tax representative (BT-62) may be at most 200 characters in the Romanian rule set for RO e-Factura (CIUS-RO). In the UBL file this is Name inside PartyName of the tax representative. Leading and trailing spaces are ignored and repeated spaces count once.

Why it matters

The tax representative is the party that acts for the seller on VAT matters, so its name has to be clear. This is a fatal rule, so RO e-Factura rejects the invoice and you have to send a corrected file.

How to fix it

Most sellers have no tax representative, so first check whether this block should be on the invoice at all. If it should, open its details in your invoicing software and keep only the name in the name field. Move any address, VAT number or note to the field where it belongs.

The rule as published

Numarul maxim permis de caractere pentru Numele reprezentantului fiscal al Vanzatorului (BT-62), este 200. #The allowed maximum number of characters for the Seller tax representative name (BT-62) is 200.
