    Why it is in this group

    • Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
    • The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
    Description, as the server wrote it
    Use this when the user asks for a vat number check, vies vat validation, or eu vat number lookup with dated XLSX and CSV logs. Checks 1 to 100 EU or XI VAT numbers against published structures and live VIES; no national checksum test. Do not use for deciding whether reverse charge applies.

    Description, as the server wrote it
    Use this when the user asks for a vies check, vat number validation, or bulk vat number check after unavailable answers and needs member-state service status. Reads VIES status for 28 country services, cached for 120 seconds. Do not use for validating an individual VAT number.

This is not a safety rating, and no finding is not a safety guarantee. The groups and findings come from fixed checks of the tool definitions the server returned on the date shown, not from its code or what it does when called. How the checks work.
