@Geertivp, Pigsonthewing, Jklamo, Ste.caneva, MADe: @CC0, MJJR, Andries Van den Abeele, Jona, Lionel Scheepmans, ArthurPSmith: Do you know anything about "TVABE" (Belgian VAT Number)? GLEI RAL only knows about Enterprise number (Belgium) (P3376) so I tend to think this TVABE is something obsolete --Vladimir Alexiev (talk) 19:11, 23 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

TVABE is certainly not obsolete. TVABE should be "BE" concatenated with Enterprise number (Belgium) (P3376) including leading zero's, so in total 10 digits. According to Belgian law, only real economic enterprises are obliged to have a TVA number. (small) Non-profit organisations have an organisation number, but do not use their TVA number. Note that there also exist OpenCorporates ID (P1320) which is "BE/" concatenated with Enterprise number (Belgium) (P3376). Geertivp (talk) 10:15, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
This is implemented as EU VAT number (P3608) Geertivp (talk) 11:50, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
