Cause

You are entering the wrong tax number.

RUT / RUN numbers have eight digits, plus a verification digit, and are generally written in this format: XXXXXXXX-Z. Z can be a digit or the letter K, and it’s determined by an algorithm that’s performed on the first eight digits, ensuring that typing mistakes when entering a RUT or RUN number will result in an invalid number. Some example of Chilean RUT / RUN numbers are:

76086428-5
22060449-7
12531909-2

Resolution

Enter the correct tax number according to format XXXXXXXX-Z.
