Previously the VAT validator was working just fine. But now I get following error, see screenshot. I saw that your code did change a little bit but more in syntax than new code. So I'm not sure what's not working anymore? Scherm­afbeelding 2024-03-15 om 14 49 10

Hi @stefaniehybrid,

Thank you very much for raising this issue. It looked like the VAT Europe was temporarily unavailable - https://ec.europa.eu/taxation_customs/vies/checkVatService.wsdl

Would you mind trying again and confirming if it now works again for you?

Hi,

This is indeed working again. Is there a way to have a fallback when the service is down again. Because now I use this one on my form: https://maes.houston-1.hybridmedia.be/ And it still checked the VAT number but got an error because it couldn’t shown the data behind the VAT number, because the service was down. Is there a way we just can let it go through but with empty fields and like an error that the service is down?

Greetings
