## Official rule text

In a Document level charge (BG-21) where the Document level charge VAT category code (BT-102) is "Export outside the EU" the Document level charge VAT rate (BT-103) shall be 0 (zero).

## Why did my invoice fail BR-G-07?

In a document-level charge (BG-21) with VAT category code 'Export outside the EU' (code G) in BT-102, the charge VAT rate BT-103 must be 0. Charges tied to an export supply inherit the same zero VAT rate.

## Common causes

- BT-103 (cbc:Percent) omitted on the export-coded charge.
- Positive rate copied from a standard-rated charge.
- Charge category set to G by mistake instead of S.
- Mapping that never resets the rate to 0 for export categories.

## How do I fix it?

```
In the charge's cac:TaxCategory set <cbc:ID>G</cbc:ID> and <cbc:Percent>0</cbc:Percent>.
```
