Why this exists:

Manual VIES validation is slow and error-prone. This tool connects your Google Sheet directly to the EU VAT system so you can validate with just a couple of clicks — instantly.

Built by a finance pro for finance and ops teams.

A Few Words From The Founder:

After a decade in finance, I built this tool out of necessity — validating EU VAT numbers before filing recaps was always a manual, error-prone task. Existing solutions were too complex or too technical. I just wanted something that worked inside Google Sheets.

So I made it: a simple, direct add-on that does exactly what it should.

You can try it free (14 days, no card). There's a free tier, and if you need more (or just want to support us), paid plans are available — with 33% off the annual plan for early adopters using code earlyadopter33 (valid through June 30).

Thanks for supporting tools made by finance people, for finance people.
