PEPPOL-COMMON-R043

Belgian enterprise number MUST be stated in the correct format.

error: the document is invalid Peppol documentation ↗

Why it fails

  • A Belgian enterprise number (scheme 0208) is not ten digits, still has the BE prefix or dots, or fails its check (the last two digits are 97 minus the first eight modulo 97).

How to fix it

Write the number as ten digits without prefix or separators, such as 0123456749.
