Use VIES API in Okou
VIES API for validating EU VAT numbers, retrieving VIES trader details and parsed addresses, processing VAT-number batches, and checking VIES API account or EU service status.
Once connected, supported VIES API actions can become steps in a reusable workflow alongside the other services your team uses. Run the workflow once, on a schedule, or when an event starts it.
What you can do with VIES API
- Read the VIES API plan, enabled features, allowance, and current request usage without consuming a provider query.
- Read overall EU VIES availability and the current status of member-country systems without consuming a provider query.
- Validate one EU VAT number and retrieve current trader data. Each lookup consumes provider allowance and may incur charges.
- Submit 3 to 99 VAT numbers for asynchronous validation. Every accepted number consumes provider allowance and may incur charges.
- Validate one EU VAT number and retrieve AI-parsed trader name and address components. Each lookup consumes provider allowance and may incur charges.
- Read the results of a previously submitted VAT-validation batch by its token.
