When I enter my EU VAT ID the error says it is not valid.

Wikidot Inc. automatically verifies validity of EU VAT numbers using the VIES service but take no responsibility for outdated or false results provided by VIES. The top reasons your VAT ID is not valid according to VIES might be:

• The VAT ID is a national VAT ID and not a EU VAT ID (this is a difference)
• The VIES database is not up-to-date (see their FAQ
• Communication error with the VIES database has occurred.

If VIES database is not validating your VAT ID properly and you still want to qualify for VAT reverse charge (i.e. you do not want VAT to be included in your prices), please contact us at [email protected]. Most likely we will ask you to fax your VAT registration documents to us and we will manually approve your VAT number.
