Status badge for Cyprus
<img src="https://vies.attestwire.com/badge/cy.svg" alt="VIES Cyprus status">How we know: our liveness probe for Cyprus is a real check-vat-number call against a correctly formatted VAT number that VIES forwards to the national database. That number is not a confirmed registration, so it comes back "not valid" — which still proves the national database answered us, and that is the thing we are measuring.
Get an alert when Cyprus's VIES endpoint goes down
One email when Cyprus's endpoint stops answering, one when it recovers, and at most one alert per member state every 6 hours — VIES flaps, and we would rather be useful than constant. You will get a confirmation mail immediately, and every message has a one-click unsubscribe.
We store your address, the country code, a timestamp and a record of this signup. Nothing else, no newsletter, and we do not share it.
Building EU invoicing?
We also make Attestwire, an EN 16931 validation API. Post an invoice as JSON or UBL/CII XML and get back the rule it breaks and how to fix it. Free tier, 100 docs/month, no card needed.
