I think this wording improvement is a good idea because the customer will understand better how to solve the issue. Do you confirm? @LouiseBonnard

LouiseBonnard commented 4 years ago

I agree with you, @Julievrz! But is the VIES system an international database or does it only apply to European countries?

jolelievre commented 4 years ago

Seems to be for EU only https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/help.html?locale=en

Yep, and it might affect the localization of this message... so I suggest 1/ not mentioning it or 2/ adding that it applies to European registrations only.

I like the second option 👍

based on my past FIX (https://github.com/PrestaShop/vatnumber/pull/14) that the VIES check works only for European addresses, the message will not appear to an american customer.
