About this app

⚠️ NOT A GOVERNMENT APP
VATProof is an independent app made by Mobilia Apps. It does not represent a government entity. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, connected to or authorised by the European Commission, the VIES service, HM Revenue & Customs or any tax authority.

🔗 OFFICIAL SOURCE OF THE INFORMATION IN THIS APP
Every EU VAT registration result shown in VATProof comes from VIES, the European Commission's official VAT Information Exchange System. You can check any VAT number yourself, free of charge, at the official source:
https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/

UK VAT numbers are checked at HMRC's official service (UK checking is not included in this version):
https://www.gov.uk/check-uk-vat-number

VATProof reports exactly what the official EU service returns and adds nothing of its own to it. If a result here ever differs from the official source above, the official source is the correct one. Both links are also shown inside the app, on the first-run notice and under Settings → Data source.

VATProof checks EU VAT registration numbers and keeps the evidence. Every check you run is written to an archive you cannot quietly edit later, so when a tax authority asks why you zero-rated an invoice eighteen months ago, you have an answer with a date on it.

🔎 CHECK A NUMBER, KEEP THE PROOF
Enter a customer's VAT number and VATProof validates the country format, runs the check, and stores the result with a timestamp. Valid, not valid, or the check could not be completed — each outcome gets its own colour, icon and plain sentence.

🧾 AN ARCHIVE THAT DOES NOT REWRITE ITSELF
Validation records are append-only by design. Nothing in the app edits or overwrites the outcome of a past check. Records leave only when you delete the client they belong to, and that takes two confirmations.

📄 PROOF PDF YOU CAN HAND TO AN ACCOUNTANT
Turn any validation into a PDF showing the number checked, the result, the date and the client it belongs to. Export a single record or the whole archive in bulk, and share it straight from the app.

📇 A CLIENT BOOK, NOT A SPREADSHEET
Keep your customers with their VAT numbers, country and check history in one place. Open a client to see every validation ever run against them, newest first.

⏰ RE-CHECKS THAT RUN THEMSELVES
A registration that was valid last quarter may have been cancelled since. VATProof re-checks your saved clients in the background and tells you when a status changes, instead of leaving you to remember.

⚠️ HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT IS NOT
VATProof is an independent tool and does not represent a government entity. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to the European Commission, HM Revenue and Customs or any tax authority. The records it produces are your own working records, not certificates issued by any authority.

VATProof reports what the official EU VIES service (https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/) returns. A failed or unavailable check is always shown as a failed check, never as an invalid number, because those two things have very different consequences on a real invoice. VATProof does not give tax advice and does not decide how you should treat a transaction — that is between you and your accountant. UK VAT checking is not included in this version.

🔓 WHAT PREMIUM ADDS
Unlimited clients and checks, bulk PDF export, and no ads. Available as a monthly or yearly plan, or as a single lifetime payment. Nothing renews unless you choose a subscription.
