Customer tax IDs
Store, validate, and render customer tax ID numbers with Stripe Invoicing.
Displaying a customer’s tax ID on invoice documents is a common requirement that you can satisfy by adding tax IDs to customers. A customer’s tax IDs display in the header of invoice and credit note PDFs.

Validation ![](https://b.stripecdn.com/docs-statics-srv/assets/fcc3a1c24df6fcffface6110ca4963de.svg)
You’re responsible for the accuracy of customer information including their tax ID number. The invoice includes the customer tax ID whether or not it’s valid.
Stripe provides automatic validation to help determine if the formatting is correct when you add the ID to our system. You can see the results of the validation in the Dashboard along with other customer information, including details returned from the government databases, and the registered name and address. However, we don’t continue to validate them over time. If automatic validation isn’t available, you must manually verify these IDs.
Australian Business Numbers (ABN) ![](https://b.stripecdn.com/docs-statics-srv/assets/fcc3a1c24df6fcffface6110ca4963de.svg)
Stripe automatically validates all Australian Business Numbers (ABNs) with the Australian Business Register (ABR).
European Value-Added-Tax (EU VAT) Numbers ![](https://b.stripecdn.com/docs-statics-srv/assets/fcc3a1c24df6fcffface6110ca4963de.svg)
Stripe also automatically validates all European Value-Added-Tax (EU VAT) numbers with the European Commission’s VAT Information Exchange System (VIES). This process only validates whether or not the tax ID is valid—you still need to verify the customer’s name and address to make sure it matches the registration information.
VIES validation usually takes only a few seconds, but depending on the availability of various government databases, might take longer. Stripe automatically handles VIES downtime and attempts retries.
United Kingdom Value-Added-Tax (GB VAT) Numbers ![](https://b.stripecdn.com/docs-statics-srv/assets/fcc3a1c24df6fcffface6110ca4963de.svg)
Stripe automatically validates all UK Value-Added-Tax (GB VAT) numbers with the United Kingdom’s Revenue & Customs (HMRC). This process only validates whether or not the tax ID is valid—you still need to verify the customer’s name and address to make sure it matches the registration information.
HMRC validation usually takes only a few seconds, but depending on the availability, might take longer. Stripe automatically handles HMRC downtime and attempts retries.
Testing customer tax ID verification ![](https://b.stripecdn.com/docs-statics-srv/assets/fcc3a1c24df6fcffface6110ca4963de.svg)
Use these magic tax IDs to trigger certain verification conditions in test mode. The tax ID type must be either the EU VAT Number or Australian Business Number (ABN).
Number | Type |
---|---|
000000000 | Successful verification |
111111111 | Unsuccessful verification |
222222222 | Verification remains pending indefinitely |
Validation webhooks and Dashboard display ![](https://b.stripecdn.com/docs-statics-srv/assets/fcc3a1c24df6fcffface6110ca4963de.svg)
Because this validation process happens asynchronously, the customer.tax_id.updated webhook notifies you of validation updates.
![Tax validation tooltip in the Dashboard](https://b.stripecdn.com/docs-statics-srv/assets/validation-tooltip.de17a6f286a786e5643e39f43c02a42e.png)
Hover over a customer’s EU VAT number to display their VIES information.
The Dashboard displays the results of the validation within the customer details, including information returned from the government databases, and the registered name and address.
When automatic validation isn’t available, you must manually verify these IDs.
Managing ![](https://b.stripecdn.com/docs-statics-srv/assets/fcc3a1c24df6fcffface6110ca4963de.svg)
You can manage tax IDs in the Dashboard, with the customer portal, or the Tax ID API.
