Inputs

Field	Type	Required	What it is
`krs_number`	string	Yes	Polish KRS number
`vat_number`	string	No	EU VAT number with country prefix (e.g. ATU14189108). Optional — used for VIES validation when the registry lookup does not return one (e.g. AT, SK); auto-derived from registry data where possible.

Limitations

Data comes from the official registry's public API under its open-data terms (https://www.gov.pl/web/sprawiedliwosc/ponowne-wykorzystywanie); results carry the registry as their source.
From step: Polish Company Data
Status uses the latest KRS registration or registry-deletion entry and is unknown when neither exists; removal of a historical field does not mean deregistration. Liquidation and bankruptcy are not classified.
From step: Polish Company Data
Data from KRS — coverage limited to entities registered in the National Court Register; sole traders (CEIDG) not included
From step: Polish Company Data
What to do instead: For sole traders, query the CEIDG register directly at prod.ceidg.gov.pl using the NIP or PESEL
VIES can be unavailable or throttle requests under unpublished per-member-state limits. Transient faults are retried, and cached results, including older fallback results, can be returned during outages.
From step: EU VAT Validation
What to do instead: Lookups within 48 hours can use cached results; if VIES is unavailable and no cached result exists, retry later.
Results can be cached for 48 hours, and national registry changes can take a further 24 hours to appear in VIES. Check the national tax authority directly for same-day registration or deregistration confirmation.
From step: EU VAT Validation
What to do instead: For real-time same-day verification, contact the national tax authority directly.
Swiss UID validation returns valid or invalid only, without a company name or address. This tool does not perform the separate enrichment lookup, whose public service is limited to 20 requests per minute.
From step: EU VAT Validation
What to do instead: For Swiss company name + address, call the swiss-company-data capability.
GB VAT numbers return a credentials-pending error when the HMRC connection is not configured.
From step: EU VAT Validation
What to do instead: Use vat-format-validate for GB format checks; it does not confirm VAT registration.
Sanctions lists updated daily from OFAC, EU, and UN sources — newly sanctioned entities may take up to 24 hours to appear
From step: Sanctions Check
What to do instead: For same-day compliance, subscribe to OFAC's RSS feed and cross-reference against today's additions
Name matching uses fuzzy logic — common names may produce false positives. Always verify flagged results
From step: Sanctions Check
What to do instead: Filter results by match confidence score and verify flagged entities against the primary sanctions list PDF
Covers entities with LEI registration via GLEIF — only ~2.5 million entities worldwide have LEIs, primarily financial institutions
From step: LEI Lookup
What to do instead: If no LEI is found, search by company name and jurisdiction; consider that smaller entities may not have an LEI
