Validating EU VAT IDs before you send invoices
24 February 2026 · 5 min read
If you sell cross-border inside the EU, you need a valid customer VAT number to apply reverse charge.
VonBill pings the EU VIES service every time you add an EU client and stores a validated-at timestamp
against the contact, so your invoice footers can truthfully say the buyer is a verified VAT-registered entity.
