VIES VAT number verification

Automatic verification of company VAT numbers in the European VIES database.

For B2B operations in the EU, it's crucial that a counterparty's VAT number is valid. Oprela automatically verifies numbers in the official VIES database.

How it works

  1. In the company card (CRM), enter the VAT/NIP number.
  2. The system queries VIES and displays the result: valid/invalid, registered name, and address.
  3. The verification result is saved with the date — useful for tax audits.
