TWO WAYS TO START
Find the number.
Or check the number.
VATFind sends your United Kingdom legal company name or tax identifier to Global Database. It can return candidate legal entities, source-reported tax identifiers, registration numbers, addresses, and company status when those fields are available.
A matched record is evidence of a Global Database source match—not proof that a VAT, EIN, or other tax registration is currently active.
COMMON QUESTIONS
United Kingdom lookup questions.
What does a UK VAT number check confirm?
It confirms whether Global Database returns a company record linked to the submitted number. VATFind does not make a live tax-authority request or confirm active tax registration.
What should I enter to find a number in United Kingdom?
Use the exact limited-company name from Companies House paperwork, an invoice, or a contract when possible.
What if the tax ID is missing?
A record can match without every field being available. A missing identifier does not mean the company is invalid or unregistered.
