Overview
Lookuptax validates tax identification numbers in more than 100 countries and says it integrates only with official national databases[13]. Its named sources include VIES, HMRC, the Australian Business Register, the Canada Revenue Agency, Italy’s Agenzia delle Entrate, Spain’s Agencia Tributaria, France’s SIREN/SIRET register, New Zealand’s NZBN, the Swiss federal administration and China’s GSXT[13].
Business name and address are returned when the source’s privacy rules permit. Users can upload tax IDs in bulk, and the service keeps an audit trail of validation history[13]. The site displays logos of organisations including Cummins and MDPI under “trusted by teams around the world”[13]. Every plan includes access to all supported countries[14].
Lookuptax is more expensive per validation than EU-focused APIs: the Lite plan costs $49 a month for 200 validations[14]. Claims of “100% accurate” validation on the home page are the vendor’s own and are not independently supported. The pages reviewed do not mention consultation numbers, and the company’s location and legal entity are not stated.
