How this service works
Validate an EU VAT number (tax identification number / TIN) against the official EU VIES registry across all 27 member states — returns valid/invalid plus the registered company name and address. Distinguishes 'invalid' (number does not exist) from 'service unavailable' (national DB offline).
Output
Returns whether the VAT number is valid, invalid, or temporarily unavailable (national database offline), along with the registered legal company name and address associated with the VAT number if valid.
Example use cases
Example prompt
“Can you check whether the Irish VAT number 6388047V is valid? I need the registered company name and address too — it's for a supplier invoice.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://x402-endpoints.onrender.com/vies/vat?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need to verify a European business's VAT registration status in real-time against the authoritative EU VIES registry, especially for B2B invoice compliance, supplier onboarding, or cross-border EU transactions. It correctly distinguishes between an invalid VAT number and a temporarily unavailable national database, which is critical for compliance workflows.
Side effects
- VAT number does not exist in VIES — returns 'invalid' status
- National member state database temporarily offline — returns 'service unavailable' (distinguishable from invalid)
- Malformed country code or VAT number format — likely 400 bad request
- VIES central service outage — endpoint may return error
- Invalid 2-letter country code not matching EU member states
