Show HN: Pip install vatify – EU VAT validation in Python

[passenger09]

I’ve been building Vatify, an API for EU VAT validation, VAT rates and calculation. Today I shipped an official Python SDK → available on PyPI:

from vatify import Vatify

client = Vatify(api_key="YOUR_API_KEY")

res = client.validate_vat("DE123456789")

print(res.valid, res.country_code, res.name)

Why?

Many SaaS founders and e-commerce devs struggle with EU VAT compliance.

Most existing libraries are outdated or incomplete.

This SDK gives you validation, rates, and calculation in a clean Python interface.

I’d love feedback from anyone who’s had to deal with EU VAT in their projects

Hello, in Odoo, we use stdnum, but a valid CLI tool is nice. Looks like you have descriptions in German in your code, which are kinda unintellegible to me ^^''
