What does BR-08 mean?

Why error BR-08 appears in an e-invoice and how to provide the Seller postal address.

BR-08 — Missing Seller postal address

What it means

The Seller postal address is missing. EN 16931 requires the invoice to state the seller's address — a legal and practical requirement, not just a formality.

How to fix it

Check that the AccountingSupplierParty section of the invoice XML has a PostalAddress block filled in (at least a city and country code). This block is often missing when the company profile in the accounting software isn't fully filled in.

Example

Wrong: the seller section has no PostalAddress block. Correct: <cac:PostalAddress><cbc:CityName>Rīga</cbc:CityName><cac:Country><cbc:IdentificationCode>LV</cbc:IdentificationCode></cac:Country></cac:PostalAddress>.
