VAT validation for Partner's VAT numbers.
|
|
=========================================
|
|
|
|
After installing this module, values entered in the VAT field of Partners will
|
|
be validated for all supported countries. The country is inferred from the
|
|
2-letter country code that prefixes the VAT number, e.g. ``BE0477472701``
|
|
will be validated using the Belgian rules.
|
|
|
|
There are two different levels of VAT number validation:
|
|
--------------------------------------------------------
|
|
* By default, a simple off-line check is performed using the known validation
|
|
rules for the country, usually a simple check digit. This is quick and
|
|
always available, but allows numbers that are perhaps not truly allocated,
|
|
or not valid anymore.
|
|
|
|
* When the "VAT VIES Check" option is enabled (in the configuration of the user's
|
|
Company), VAT numbers will be instead submitted to the online EU VIES
|
|
database, which will truly verify that the number is valid and currently
|
|
allocated to a EU company. This is a little bit slower than the simple
|
|
off-line check, requires an Internet connection, and may not be available
|
|
all the time. If the service is not available or does not support the
|
|
requested country (e.g. for non-EU countries), a simple check will be performed
|
|
instead.
|
|
|
|
Supported countries currently include EU countries, and a few non-EU countries
|
|
such as Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Norway or Russia. For unsupported countries,
|
|
only the country code will be validated.
