EORI validation — FAQ
What is an EORI number?+
EORI stands for Economic Operators Registration and Identification. It is a unique ID assigned to businesses and people importing or exporting goods into or out of the EU. Customs authorities use it to track and clear shipments.
How do I check if an EORI number is valid?+
Enter the EORI number above. EORICheck queries the official European Commission (TAXUD) validation service in real time and tells you whether it is registered and valid.
Why does an EORI number need to be valid?+
An invalid or mistyped EORI on a customs declaration blocks the shipment at the border. Importers, freight forwarders and customs brokers validate the EORI of their counterparties before filing.
Which countries does this cover?+
All EU and EEA member states, plus Northern Ireland (XI) and legacy GB numbers, validated through the EU Commission EOS service.
Is this an official certification?+
No. EORICheck is an independent tool that surfaces the live result from the EU Commission database. For legally binding confirmation, consult your customs authority.
Can I validate EORI numbers in bulk or by API?+
Yes. EORICheck offers a documented EORI and VAT validation API plus a batch workflow for dated records. Start with the free lookup, then open the API documentation for quotas and request options.
Need repeat or automated EORI checks?
Use the documented validation API or request dated bulk records.
