What does DK-R-002 mean? Danish suppliers MUST provide legal entity (CVR-number)

Why did my invoice fail DK-R-002?

Danish suppliers must provide their legal entity identifier, the Danish CVR number. The CVR number is the official Danish business register identifier and is required so the supplier can be legally identified by Danish receivers. In UBL it is carried in cac:AccountingSupplierParty/cac:Party/cac:PartyLegalEntity/cbc:CompanyID (with schemeID 0184 per DK-R-014).

Official rule text

Danish suppliers MUST provide legal entity (CVR-number)

Common causes

cac:PartyLegalEntity or its cbc:CompanyID is missing from the supplier party
Only the VAT number (PartyTaxScheme) is provided, without the legal-entity CVR registration
CVR number stored in a custom field that never maps to PartyLegalEntity/CompanyID

How do I fix it?

<cac:PartyLegalEntity>
  <cbc:RegistrationName>Dansk Leverandor A/S</cbc:RegistrationName>
  <cbc:CompanyID schemeID="0184">12345678</cbc:CompanyID>
</cac:PartyLegalEntity>
