VAT ID validation overview

All VAT ID validations that have been performed are stored in the vat_validation table and are available as a grid in the admin area. This lets you see in a traceable way which number was checked when and with what result, and you can revalidate or delete individual entries.

You can find the grid under Stores → Tax → VAT Numbers (action euvat/validation/index).

Columns

Column	Content
ID	Internal record ID (validation_id).
VAT Number	The checked VAT ID (vat_id).
Is Valid	Result of the validity check (vat_is_valid).
Request success	Whether the request was technically successful (vat_request_success).
Request Message	Message from the interface (request_message).
Request ID	Request identifier from the interface (vat_request_id).
Request Date	Time of the check (vat_request_date, filterable as a date range).
Trader Name	Registered company name from the response (vat_trader_name).
Trader Address	Registered address from the response (vat_trader_address).

All columns can be filtered and sorted; the view can be customized via bookmarks and the column controls.

Actions per row

• Revalidate – checks the number again via the interface and updates the record (action euvat/validation/revalidate).
• Delete – removes the entry from the cache; the next time it is used, the number is checked again (action euvat/validation/delete).
