How this service works
Domain and email security check: SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MX, MTA-STS, TLS-RPT, DNSSEC (validated by Cloudflare and Google), CAA, BIMI with its mark certificate, mail IPs on the UCEPROTECT Level 1 blocklist, TLS certificate, registrar and domain age, and Microsoft 365 tenant, each graded with the exact record to fix it, plus a 0-100 score
Output
Returns a JSON object indicating whether the provided tax-ID or VAT number is valid and registered in the specified African country, along with registration details, the official government source URL used to verify the information, and the date the data was last confirmed.
Example use cases
Supplier VAT onboarding check
“Before I add this Kenyan supplier to our accounts system, can you verify that their tax ID KRA-12345678 is a legitimate registered taxpayer in Kenya?”
Invoice compliance verification
“I received an invoice from a Nigerian company claiming VAT registration number 12345678-0001 — can you confirm that's a real, active VAT registration in Nigeria so I know the invoice is compliant?”
Cross-border business due diligence
“We're entering a contract with a company in Ghana and they gave us TIN C0123456789 — can you check if that's a valid registered tax ID in Ghana before we proceed?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://afriref.dev/v1/domain/check?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need to verify or validate a tax identification number or VAT registration number for a business operating in one of afriref's 34 covered African countries. It is ideal for supplier onboarding, invoice compliance checks, and cross-border due diligence where an authoritative, cited African government source is required. Prefer it over generic business lookup APIs when you specifically need African regulatory compliance validation with official source provenance.
Side effects
- Country not supported — endpoint returns a refusal for countries outside afriref's 34-country coverage
- Invalid format for the tax/VAT ID — returns validation error before lookup
- Tax ID not found in official registry — returns not-registered or unknown status
- Rate limit exceeded on free tier (50 calls/day) — returns 429 or payment required
- Missing required parameters (country or ID) — returns 400 bad request
- Network or upstream government data source unavailable — returns service error
