Is this EU VAT number valid? Live VIES check against the European Commission's official VA
Is this EU VAT number valid? Live VIES check against the European Commission's official VAT Information Exchange System — validate a European VAT id, verify a business tax id before invoicing, confirm B2B reverse-charge / zero-rating eligibility. Returns the registered trader name and address where the member state discloses them. Deterministic: no LLM. Distinguishes a genuinely invalid number from a member state whose system is merely offline, which VIES itself does not do cleanly.
