Peppol BIS Billing 3.0, May 2026 release, EN 16931 model bound to UBL
Severity note: fatal, from the Flag column of the Peppol BIS Billing 3.0 UBL rules index retrieved 2026-10-18.
A tax exemption reason code must belong to the CEF VATEX code list. The statement says MUST, says scheme identifier, and has no period. The context is cbc:TaxExemptionReasonCode and names no scheme attribute. The space check uses normalize-space(.). The list lookup uses normalize-space(upper-case(.)). The test does not read @schemeID or @listID, and it does not call exists.
Set the tax exemption reason code to a CEF VATEX code with no space.
Illustration of the condition in the official statement. Not an example published by the source.
Fails the stated condition. The tax exemption reason code contains a space, or it is not in the CEF VATEX list.
Passes the stated condition. The tax exemption reason code is VATEX-EU-AE, with no space.
