As per business compliancy procedures we are required to validate your Canon business account with help of your official VAT registration document.
The reason for this is that you are creating the Business Account with Canon which will give you access to Business exclusive pricing, solutions, and services.
Some of the services that we offer are sold cross-border and therefore we must validate that company is valid for reverse charge VAT principle.
The document we are requesting would not be available publicly, which would protect your company from unauthorised creation of the Business Account.
