We cannot verify this VAT number, this means you will have to pay VAT.	Please make sure you’ve entered the VAT number correctly. If you receive this error with a valid VAT number, please review this article regarding VAT validation.
We cannot check if your VAT number is correct because the VAT checking system for the EU is currently down.	There are moments when the VIES API is extremely slow or not available. Please try again at a later time.
