What is vatnode?
vatnode is an EU VAT validation API built for developers, SaaS platforms, fintech products, e-commerce, and ERP integrators selling B2B across Europe.
Basic VAT APIs usually return only valid: true. vatnode returns a richer audit-ready validation record: VIES consultation number for qualified checks, checkId, verifiedAt, source authority, company data, and country VAT rate details in one REST response.
Use it at checkout, before invoice generation, during B2B onboarding, or as part of recurring customer VAT monitoring.
- EU VAT validation via REST JSON
- VIES consultation number for qualified checks
- checkId + verifiedAt audit trail fields
- National registry fallback and enrichment for covered countries
- Local VAT name, abbreviation, currency, and rate tiers
- Cached responses under 50ms; live checks typically 200–800ms
- Optional VAT monitoring and webhook alerts on paid plans
- EU-hosted in Germany
- Test keys for deterministic CI/CD
- Free tier, no credit card
Built for teams that need more than a boolean VAT result — they need validation evidence they can store with invoices and customer records.
