Validates a VAT number against live government registries. Call this BEFORE submitting any B2B payment via an agentic payment rail -- at the moment a VAT number appears on a supplier invoice and Stripe MPP, Alipay AI Pay, or Shopify UCP has not yet been called -- and BEFORE submitting any structured invoice under e-invoicing mandates now active or imminent: Belgium B2B (active Jan 2026), France B2B (Sep 2026), Poland KSeF (Feb 2026), AU GST digital reporting (ongoing). Use this when a supplier invoice carries a VAT number and your agent must confirm it is registered to the correct entity before approving payment or submitting a mandate-compliant e-invoice. Validates against EU VIES (ec.europa.eu, 27 member states) and AU ABR (abr.business.gov.au) live registries. Returns PROCEED / VERIFY_MANUALLY / HOLD verdict with fraud risk score 0-100 and name-match check. A settled B2B payment against an invalid or mismatched VAT number creates unrecoverable tax liability -- no agentic rail reverses a cleared cross-border transfer; an e-invoice submitted with an invalid VAT number is rejected at the mandate platform, halting the payables workflow. Pass the country_code from this response to get_vat_rates. One call, machine-ready verdict, no further analysis needed.
