CURRENCY & TAX IDs

How does the Foreign Exchange Rate Calculator work?

Does Gigwell validate VAT Tax IDs?
We currently validate VAT (value added tax) IDs in real time against the EC (european commission) database. Gigwell validates the buyer’s VAT as well as the agency's VAT before any contracts are sent.
I entered the customer’s VAT number, but it was not recognized.
Make sure you validate the customer’s international VAT number instead of their domestic, meaning no country prefix before the ID number. Some member states observe different syntax for their VAT IDs. Visit this page for more on VAT numbers and tax IDs.
