## Official rule text

Seller additional legal information shall occur maximum once

## Why did my invoice fail UBL-SR-14?

The Seller additional legal information (BT-33), free-text legal details about the seller such as share capital, may occur at most once. In UBL this maps to cac:AccountingSupplierParty/cac:Party/cac:PartyLegalEntity/cbc:CompanyLegalForm, which must not repeat.

## Common causes

- Several cac:PartyLegalEntity elements each supply a CompanyLegalForm.
- Legal form and share-capital text are emitted as two separate CompanyLegalForm elements instead of one combined string.
- Template duplicates the legal information block.

## How do I fix it?

```
Combine into one element: <cac:PartyLegalEntity><cbc:RegistrationName>ACME Trading Ltd</cbc:RegistrationName><cbc:CompanyLegalForm>SARL au capital de 50 000 EUR</cbc:CompanyLegalForm></cac:PartyLegalEntity> and remove duplicates.
