Debug

Known issues

deprecatedThe function `vatutils.validate_vat` is deprecated and may be removed in future versions. Use `VatNumber.is_valid()` instead.

fix

Replace `vatutils.validate_vat(vat_number)` with `vatutils.VatNumber(vat_number).is_valid()`.

affects: >=0.3.0,<0.4.0

breakingVersion 0.3.0 changed the return type of `VatNumber.is_valid()` from a tuple `(bool, str)` to a boolean. This breaks code expecting a tuple.

fix

Update code to check only the boolean: `if vat.is_valid():` instead of `valid, msg = vat.is_valid()`.

affects: >=0.3.0

gotchaThe library does not perform live checks against official VAT databases (e.g., VIES). It only validates the format. This may be misunderstood.

fix

Use additional services like vies for live validation.

affects: all
