VAT and NIF Numbers

Adding tax information to your account.

What is VAT?

VAT (Value Added Tax) is a consumption tax used in many countries, particularly in the European Union.

Do I Need to Add a VAT Number?

EU Businesses: If you have a valid VAT number (VIES registered), add it to:

  • Remove VAT from your invoices (reverse charge mechanism)
  • Ensure proper tax handling

Individuals: You generally don’t need a VAT number unless you’re a registered business.

What is NIF?

NIF (Número de Identificação Fiscal) is a tax identification number used in:

  • Spain (DNI/NIE)
  • Portugal
  • Other Portuguese-speaking countries

Adding Your Information

  1. Go to Settings → Billing
  2. Click Edit Billing Details
  3. Enter your VAT/NIF number
  4. Click Save

Validation

VAT numbers are validated against the VIES system:

  • If valid, VAT is removed from future invoices
  • If invalid, you’ll be notified to correct it

Invoice Changes

Once validated, your VAT number will appear on all future invoices.
