AI-generatedSummary
Validate an EU VAT number through the European Commission’s VIES service. Choose the member state and enter the VAT number without its country prefix; Italy uses IT and Greece uses EL.
Inputs
- countryCode (required) — EU member state code for the VAT number; defaults to IT. Greece is EL, not GR.
- vatNumber (required) — VAT number without the country code prefix. For an Italian Partita IVA, enter the 11-digit number.
Output shape
A single record containing countryCode, vatNumber, valid, name, address, requestDate, attempts, and latencyMs.
VIES faults and request failures raise an error; transient service faults and request errors are retried up to five attempts.
