Hi. How can we help?

Why does YITH not have a VAT number? / Why am I not able to find your VAT number?

The CIF code that you can find in the invoice stands for "Código de identificación fiscal" for companies based in Spain. It is an identifier code for value added tax purposes, which is the VAT number for most of English-speaking countries.

Our company is based in the Canary Islands (Tenerife, Spain), which are among the outermost regions of the European Union and are outside of the European Union Value Added Tax Area: this is the reason why our CIF number does not appear in EU Intrastat database. We do not have a VAT, but a CIF, which is: B76726470

You can find attached a document (and the link to it) explaining this matter, which is also available online.
