Please read these terms carefully before using the EU Tax ID Lookup website and services. By accessing or using our Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use our Service.
EU Tax ID Lookup provides informational resources and validation tools related to European Union tax identification numbers. Our Service includes format validation tools, educational content about EU VAT systems, and reference materials covering tax ID formats across all EU member states. The Service is provided free of charge to users and is funded through advertising revenue.
EU Tax ID Lookup is an independent, privately operated website. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to any government agency, tax authority, the European Commission, or any other official EU institution. Our service does not constitute official verification and should not be treated as such.
The information provided on this website is for general informational purposes only. While we strive to maintain accurate and up-to-date information, we make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of the information, products, services, or related graphics contained on the website.
Any reliance you place on information from our Service is strictly at your own risk. We strongly recommend that you verify all information through official sources, particularly for matters with legal, financial, or regulatory implications. Consult qualified professional advisors for specific guidance applicable to your situation.
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, EU Tax ID Lookup and its operators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including without limitation, loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from:
(a) Your access to or use of or inability to access or use the Service;
(b) Any conduct or content of any third party on the Service;
(c) Any content obtained from the Service;
(d) Unauthorized access, use, or alteration of your transmissions or content;
(e) Errors, inaccuracies, or omissions in any information provided through the Service;
(f) Decisions made or actions taken based on information from the Service;
(g) Any interruption or cessation of transmission to or from the Service.
In no event shall our aggregate liability exceed the amount you have paid us, if any, for use of the Service in the past twelve months, or one hundred euros (€100), whichever is greater.
Our tax ID validation tool performs format checking only. It verifies whether a submitted number follows the correct structural pattern for its apparent country of origin. Format validation does not confirm:
- That the number is actually registered with any tax authority
- That the number belongs to the entity claiming it
- That the number is valid for any particular purpose or transaction
- That the number has not been revoked, suspended, or otherwise invalidated
For official verification of VAT registration status, you must use official channels such as the European Commission's VIES system or contact relevant national tax authorities directly. Our tool is intended to assist with preliminary checking and should not replace official verification procedures required for regulatory compliance.
Tax identification formats, registration requirements, and regulatory frameworks can change through legislative or administrative action. While we endeavor to keep our content current, we cannot guarantee that all information reflects the latest developments. Format rules documented on our site are based on publicly available information and may not capture all variations or recent changes.
If you identify any inaccuracies in our content, we welcome corrections. However, we make no commitment to update content within any particular timeframe and disclaim any liability for outdated information.

Failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service shall not be considered a waiver of those rights. The waiver of any such right or provision will be effective only if in writing and signed by a duly authorized representative.
These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws applicable to the jurisdiction in which the Service is operated, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the courts located within that jurisdiction for the purpose of litigating all such claims or disputes.
