VAT number check (VIES)
A customer's VAT number checked with the European Commission, in one click.
Status
In preparation
Built, but not yet tested against the real service. It is switched on only after that test.
Still needed: a final trial in the app on trajenda.com; then the button goes live.
What it does
On the customer page, a button checks the VAT number with VIES, the public check run by the European Commission. You see whether the number is valid, with the date of the check and, where the country shares it, the registered name. That keeps reverse-charge VAT off invoices with an invalid number. No account and no key needed; only the number goes to the Commission. If VIES does not answer, Trajenda says so, and does not call the number wrong.
