## Why it fails

- The buyer's legal name is missing: UBL keeps it in `cac:PartyLegalEntity/cbc:RegistrationName` of the customer party; a `cac:PartyName` alone doesn't count.

## How to fix it

- Add `cac:PartyLegalEntity/cbc:RegistrationName` to the buyer party (`ram:BuyerTradeParty/ram:Name` in CII).
