Company VAT Group - Italy

The Company VAT Group service allows you to check whether a VAT number belongs to a VAT Group. If you also add the VAT number of a company as a second parameter, you can ascertain whether that company is actually associated with the VAT Group of the VAT number provided.

A VAT group is a group that brings together companies linked by financial, economic and organisational interests. It has a single VAT number and the member companies invoice transactions with third parties under the common VAT number. Each enterprise, however, will continue to have its own tax code.

Faced with this composite reality, the need for many companies is to identify when a VAT number belongs to a VAT Group or when a company belongs to a VAT Group.

The Company VAT Group Search service responds to these two needs in a timely manner and in real time.

SAMPLE REQUEST WITH ONLY VAT NUMBER

GET/IT-vatgroup/{vatCode_or_id}

If only VAT ID is used as a query parameter then it will be checked whether that ID exists and whether it is associated with a VAT group.

This is an example of a call with the VAT number: 15844561009

SAMPLE RESPONSE WITH ONLY VAT NUMBER

GET/IT-vatgroup/{vatCode_or_id}

The response indicates whether that VAT identification number participates in a VAT group and whether it matches the VAT identification number of the group leader. In this case the VAT identification number of the request confirms that the VAT identification number participates in a VAT group ("vatGroupParticipation": true) and that it matches the VAT identification number of the group leader ("isVatGroupLeader": true).

   "error": null
  }

SAMPLE REQUEST WITH VAT AND TAX CODE

If, in addition to the VAT number, the tax code is also added as a parameter, it is also possible to check whether the company belongs to the VAT group associated with the VAT number.

This is an example of a call with the VAT number 15844561009 and the tax code 09633951000.
