BR-IC-12 An intra-community supply must state the deliver-to country

noun · EN 16931 · fatal · BT-80

For a sample invoice, the library reports: An invoice with an intra-community supply (category K) must state the deliver-to country code (BT-80). The zero rate depends on the goods physically leaving your member state, so the destination has to be on the document.

Business term
BT-80
Severity
fatal

The fix

Set deliverTo.countryCode to the ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code of the destination member state — it must differ from the seller country. Under XRechnung you must also supply deliverTo.city and deliverTo.postalCode (BR-DE-10, BR-DE-11).
