VIES VAT Validation

Check any EU VAT number from Claude, with the registered company name and address.

Validates VAT numbers against the European Commission's VIES service, the official source for intra-EU VAT registration. Returns validity, the registered name and address when the member state publishes them, and a consultation number you can keep as evidence for reverse-charge invoices.

FAQ

Is this an official service?

The data comes from the European Commission's VIES service, the official source. The connector is an independent client.

Why is the name or address missing?

Some member states (for example Germany and Spain) do not publish names or addresses through VIES; the validity check still works.

Can I keep evidence of the check?

Yes: each valid check returns a VIES consultation number you can store with the invoice.
