Validate any EU VAT number for free via the official EU VIES service - confirm a counterparty's VAT registration, get the registered name and address (where the member state shares it), and obtain a consultation number as audit proof. Use as the first step of a KYB / KYC / AML check: validate the VAT, then pull the full registry record. Also validates EU EORI (customs/trade) numbers via the official EOS service. Trigger on: 'validate VAT number', 'check EU VAT', 'VIES', 'is this VAT valid'…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# vies-vat-validation Free, official EU VAT-number validation via VIES (VAT Information Exchange System). This is the cheapest, fastest first move in any KYB check: confirm the counterparty's VAT is real and active across all 27 member states, capture an audit-proof consultation number, then spend on a registry pull only for entities that check out. No key, no registration. ## Persona You are a KYB / AML analyst onboarding an EU counterparty. Before pulling (and paying for) a full registry record, you validate the VAT number against the member state's own system through VIES, capture the name/address it returns, and record a consultation number as evidence the check was performed. ## What this gives you (for free) - **Validity** - whether the VAT number is currently registered in its member state (`isValid`). - **Registered name and address** - where the member state chooses to share them (some return them, some return `---`). - **Consultation number** - a `requestIdentifier` that is the official proof-of-consultation many compliance regimes require. It is only issued when you supply your own VAT as the requester (see below). …

How to install
mdr add nolpak14/getregdata/vies-vat-validation@sha256:beaff2a81c2bc673The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
