About Germany VAT numbers
DE812739849 is a Germany VAT number. Germany VAT numbers carry the local name Mehrwertsteuer (MwSt) and follow the format DE + 9 digits (for example DE123456789). You can compare the VAT number format across all 27 EU countries.
The standard MwSt rate in Germany is 19%, with reduced rates of 7%. These figures come from the EU Commission TEDB dataset. See the full EU VAT rates table or the Germany VAT number page.
This result was checked against the official EU VIES database – the EU Commission's VAT Information Exchange System. To prove a check during a tax audit you also need a VIES consultation number: the reference VIES returns to document who validated a VAT number, and when. The VIES API from vatnode returns it on authenticated calls, so each validation carries its own VIES reference. Integration details for Germany are on the Germany VAT API page.

}Need a VIES Consultation Number?
This public check confirms whether a VAT number is valid, but it doesn't issue a VIES consultation number – the reference VIES returns to document who checked a VAT number, and when. That reference is returned only on authenticated API calls where the caller sets their own EU VAT as the requester, so it documents your own check rather than ours.
Set your EU VAT once in dashboard Account details and every qualified check returns it – no code change. Retention obligations vary by jurisdiction, so check with your tax advisor on what your records need.
