About EORI-Search.com


EORI-Search.com was originally a project for a so called VWA, translated from German a pre-scientific paper during the final exam in Austria. Because the page got so popular and had so many visitors, who out of a sudden were able to find VAT IDs, the website was absorbed by Linkomat GmbH, placed in Vienna.

What makes this site unique is the reverse of the process of proofing VAT IDs. Moreover, it is possible to find these VAT IDs even when you only have the name of the company. This is mostly applied by companies, who either need the number of their affiliates for writing invoices or update their customer databses. In the latter case the VAT Number Register is perfectly suited because of its normalized and uniquely relatable data (with the VAT number as primary key).
Alternatively this service can also be used to check vat numbers by inputting the number in the name field without considering the format .

Source of the Information

EORI-Search.com is directly connected to public institutions who publish the information in the first place.

Functionality

This search engine has only been made possible to realise due to the high performance of compution. If you hit the search button, the search algorithm checks all VAT numbers, matches the given name with them and sorts them after their relevance. Following functions make the search more efficient:

Privacy Concerns

Because sole traders often have a VAT number they are also listed in this search engine. Sometimes they see their privacy endangered, but if you contact Linkomat GmbH, your information will be deleted as soon as possible. However, exactly these entries are very interesting for some companies as these sole traders sometimes do not have any entry in the internet. The Linkomat GmbH is therefore confronted with two sides of sole traders. On the one hand person who do not want their private addresses etc. publicly available and on the other hand businesses who implicitly want to be found because it is a kind of advertisement for them and otherwise their business would seem dubious (when the would appear as if they had no VAT ID).
