Talk:VAT identification number

message: I think many of the things in this page are wrong. I have just edited the spanish entry of the table. It said that the VAT identification number is IVA. That is wrong. IVA is the name of the tax (i.e. IVA = VAT). The VAT identification number is the CIF. There seems to be the same problem in the entries for other countries.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 158.42.65.129 (talk) 08:45, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

Is there a reliable official source?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ma lafortune (talk • contribs) 19:36, 25 March 2019 (UTC)

message: The VAT number format for Uruguay is wrong. the declared format is the corresponding to fisics persons, but not for juridic persons. The VAT for juridic persons is correct Called "RUT" but the format number is a chain composed by 2 digits + 6 unique digits + 4 verification digits. The firs 2 digits refers to the "state", "province" or "department" (ex. Montevideo department Nº is 21), the following 6 numbers refers to a unique company number, and the last 4 digits are 00+ two verification Nº.
For example, a RUT number for a company from Montevideo department (is he province or state in Uruguay) could be: 21 XXXXXX 0013, were 21 refers to Montevideo, XXXXXX would be the 6digits for a company (is a unique number per company), and 0013 is the verification code.
This is the oficial page of DGI (Dirección General Impositiva, General Impositive Direction): https://servicios.dgi.gub.uy/ServiciosEnLinea/dgi--servicios-en-linea--consulta-de-certifcado-unico
There you can verify any RUT (VAT number).  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tincho1988 (talk • contribs) 22:26, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
