If the cryptographic stamp (KSA-15) exists in the invoice, this cryptographic stamp (KSA-15) must contain the exact "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:signature:1" value for signature information ID.

Why ZATCA invoices fail rule BR-KSA-28 (ERROR) and how to fix it: If the cryptographic stamp (KSA-15) exists in the invoice, this cryptographic stamp (KSA-15) must contain the exact "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:signature:1" value for signature information ID.

What this rule checks

If the cryptographic stamp (KSA-15) exists in the invoice, this cryptographic stamp (KSA-15) must contain the exact "urn:oasis:names:specification:ubl:signature:1" value for signature information ID.

Rule family: KSA - business rules (BR-KSA).

Standard: BR-KSA (ZATCA). Severity: ERROR.

Why your invoice is rejected

ZATCA runs the official EN 16931 + BR-KSA business rules before clearance/reporting. This rule is an error — the invoice is rejected until you fix it.

How to fix it

Correct the invoice element referenced in the rule (the BT-/BG- term above) in your ERP mapping so it satisfies the constraint, then re-validate. The fault is usually in how your software generates the field, not in the rule itself.

Verify before you send

Upload your ZATCA UBL invoice to the validator to confirm this rule — and every other EN 16931 / BR-KSA rule — passes. Validation runs the official ZATCA SDK schematron.
