Source: https://docs.peppol.eu/poacc/billing/3.0/rules/ubl-tc434/BR-CL-24/

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.

## Plain-language reading

The statement says to use MIMEMediaType for a MIME code in the attribute, and the published test allows six media types. It ends with a period and does not say MUST. The context is cbc:EmbeddedDocumentBinaryObject[@mimeCode]. The test compares @mimeCode to application/pdf, image/png, image/jpeg, text/csv, the spreadsheetml sheet type, and the oasis opendocument spreadsheet type, with spaces around =. It does not read @schemeID or @unitCode. It does not call exists.

## What to change

Set mimeCode on the embedded document to one of the six media types in the published test, such as application/pdf.

## Illustration

Illustration of the condition in the official statement. Not an example published by the source.

**Fails the stated condition.** The embedded document mimeCode is application/xml.

**Passes the stated condition.** The embedded document mimeCode is application/pdf.
