Example prompt: Can you validate EORI number GB123456789000 and tell me the registered company name and address, plus give me an audit receipt for our records?

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need authoritative validation of an EU EORI number against the official EOS registry, not just a format check. It combines structural pre-filtering with live EOS lookup (with retry and caching), returns registered business identity data where available, and produces a durable audit receipt — making it ideal for customs compliance workflows, supplier onboarding, and trade documentation auditing.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid EORI format rejected by structural pre-filter before EOS query
- EORI number not found in EOS registry returns not-registered result
- EOS service temporarily unavailable — retry logic exhausted, returns error
- Operator has not consented to public disclosure — name/address fields absent
- Malformed or non-EU EORI prefix causes format validation failure

## How this service works

Validate an EU EORI number (customs economic operator ID): structural prefilter, authoritative EOS check with retry and cache, registered name and address where the operator consented, durable audit receipt.

## Output

Returns whether the EORI number passed structural format validation and the authoritative EOS check, the registered operator name and address (where consent was given), and a durable audit receipt of the verification with timestamp and check details.
