Warning

UBL-CR-330: No registration address in the tax representative's tax details

In short

Warning: worth checking.

UBL-CR-330 means the tax details of the seller's tax representative contain a registration address (cac:RegistrationAddress), which EN 16931 does not use. Remove the registration address element to clear the warning.

What it means

In UBL a party can give the address where it is registered for tax inside cac:PartyTaxScheme. EN 16931 only has one address for the seller's tax representative, the postal address (BG-12). The rule flags a cac:RegistrationAddress in the tax details, which has no field in EN 16931. It applies to invoices and credit notes.

Why it matters

EN 16931 uses the tax representative's postal address (BG-12), not a separate tax registration address.

How to fix it

Remove cac:RegistrationAddress from cac:TaxRepresentativeParty/cac:PartyTaxScheme in the exported XML. Keep the tax representative's postal address in cac:TaxRepresentativeParty/cac:PostalAddress. You do not need to replace it with the registration address to clear this warning. Recheck the exported file.
