PEPPOL lookup
Checks if the specified VAT number or business number is registered on the PEPPOL network as a receiver. For example, you can use this endpoint to check if an entity’s counterparts are registered in PEPPOL before creating e-invoices for those counterparts.
The lookup is powered by PEPPOL SMPs (Service Metadata Publishers) so it also includes registrations that are not visible in the public PEPPOL directory.
Both partner tokens and entity user tokens can be used for authentication.
Production and sandbox lookups are separate.
Headers
Bearer authentication of the form Bearer <token>, where token is your auth token.
Query parameters
VAT number or business number, depending on the network_schema
used. VAT numbers must include the country prefix, for example, use DE010101010
not 10101010
.
Note: This endpoint does not validate the format of VAT numbers and business numbers (such as the length or characters used). Invalid values will return {"exists": false}
.
Response
true
is the specified identifier is registered as a receiver in PEPPOL, and false
otherwise.
