As having implemented EDIFACT parsers and translation layers, Universal Business Language (Oasis UBL) is a bliss to work with. Yes, it's a big standard and looks scary when starting out with it, but it is very well designed for a complicated world.
In some member states, like Germany, the EDIFACT format, when compliant with the EN 16931 data model, is accepted as a valid e-invoice format.
EN 16931 defines what information needs to be in an invoice (the data model), while EDIFACT INVOIC defines how that information is structured and formatted for electronic transmission (the syntax).
OK, it’s been a long time since I worked in this space. Seems like it’s an XML version of the INVOIC message, but is it required to support the XML syntax, or does the plain old EDI format suffice?
For the benefit of those outside of the UK, Nigel (Mr. Brexit) Farage’s right hand man in Wales, Nathan Gill was just jailed for taking bribes from Kremlin stooges to parrot their propaganda in the EU parliament.
The biggest funder of Brexit of course had a Russian wife, company called Ural Holdings, several meetings with Russian diplomats and weird company finances where he suddenly went from almost broke to millions through opaque offshore financing.
Ahem, in 5 years Nigel Farage will have persuaded the idiots to willingly up their human rights, as enshrined in the ECHR. Churchill’s great achievement to prevent the horrors of the Nazi regime happening again.
But the British public, or at least the flag-waving hotel-arson subset, really want to separate families and send people to countries where they face significant risk of torture or death.

If you read the actual article, it seems a US passport is about as good as it always was. It seems like much of the change is various countries expanding visa free travel, just not to Americans. Before when I went to China or Vietnam, I had to get a visa. Now with this change in ranking...I still have to get a visa.
