EU VAT Registration No. Validation Service

Posted on by J-Philippe

Hello all,

I want to use VAT Information Exchange System which is an electronic means of validating VAT identification numbers of economic operators registered in the European Union for cross-border transactions on goods and services.

I'm using standard base Business Central (tested on Business central 14 and 19.2) with default endpoint (http://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/services/checkVatService).

Currently, unable to check VAT identification numbers -> I receive this error message: A call to System.Xml.XmlDocument.Load failed with this message: '>' is an unexpected token. The expected token is '"' or '''. Line 1, position 55.

Anybody has the same problem?

Thanks.

J-Philippe

Every national finance authority within the EU should provide its own web service for that issue too.
