VAT identification number validation

VAT Check: Before doing business across borders in the EU, companies need to validate the VAT identification number – also called VAT number – of their business partners.

The VAT Check via JustOn Billing & Invoice Management gives our customers the security that an European VAT information exists.

This means our customers can ensure that their business partners are subject to value-added tax and can sell their goods or services VAT-free in B2B business. If companies do not chec k the VAT identification number and it is found that the customer’s information was incorrect, the companies will pay the VAT themselves.

VAT information at a glance

Using the integration with VIES you can directly check if a company is registered for cross-border business within the EU. This validation is done by an automatic check of the VAT number of one or more accounts.

As a result, you will know if the VAT number is valid.

You will also receive:

• the name and address associated linked to the VAT number (if permitted by the relevant country)
• the timestamps of the last checks and
• any error messages.

Reliable information for the B2C sector

For companies that work in direct contact with end customers, JustOn SCHUFA Inquiries offers the following types of SCHUFA credit information B2C.

SCHUFA identity check

The SCHUFA Identity Check provides you with important information on natural persons.

Using the SCHUFA Identity Check, you can actively protect yourself against identity fraud, for example. By comparing the specified personal data with the SCHUFA database, you gain clarity about the identity of your customer.

More trust and security

The application can be used to quickly and easily create three types of SCHUFA credit information in the B2B sector:

• SCHUFA Short Inquiry
• SCHUFA Short Inquiry Direct
• SCHUFA Compact Inquiry
• SCHUFA Full Inquiry

The integrated monitoring automatically updates the data and informs you about changes.

Compact and full credit information

The compact and full inquiry provide more detailed information on the creditworthiness of potential and existing customers.

Based on a broader database, it offers your company even more security. They are a good choice for checking the liquidity of business partners before concluding an order with a larger volume.

This way, you can prevent non-payments, which represent a medium to large business risk.
