Samanta and others,
I'd like to confirm that Upwork's VAT number is EU528002406. Companies registered via the MOSS scheme receive a uniquely formatted VAT ID from the European tax authority, which is not verifiable in VIES. Here is the full information:
- Country: USA
- International VAT number: EU528002406
- Name of the company: Upwork Global Inc.
- Address: 655 Montgomery St. Suite 490 Dept. 17022, San Francisco CA 94111-2676

I have exactly the same question. I was using EU528002406 for years, but I just noticed that my invoicing software marks this VAT UE number as invalid. What is the valid VAT UE number freelancers from Europe can use? Thanks in advance!
(EDIT: I'm asking the same question because the link mentioned above is not available to other users.)

Hi,
did anyone receive the valid UW VAT number?
I need it to register the expenses (the UW fees) and I think I can't use the one that appears on the invoices (EU528002406) because as most of you said, it is not valid.
Thanks

In the end it worked out for me. But a simple tick-box in the payment section with tax info etc. is useful, I agree

Hello Andrea,
Could you please also contact me. I have the same problem as Bogdan. My tax advisor says the EU VAT ID is not valid.
Thank you!!

Hi Andrei,
I checked and it looks like your VAT ID was already accepted. Could you please check and let me know if you still need help with this?
If you need Upwork's VAT ID, it's this: EU528002406.
Thank you.

Hi Goran,
May I have support? My accountant asked me the Upwork details, including VAT number to include in our invoices.
In case of any issue, how do I contact Upwork?
Many thanks

Hi,
I would also like to have a valid Upwork VAT ID for the EU. The one that's on the invoices (EU528002406) can't be used since my VAT form requires country code (for instance PL for Poland), but EU code can't be used.
Thanks,
Tihomir
Jun 9, 2020 05:37:10 AM by Goran V
Hi Tihomir,
You can verify the validity of a VAT number by entering it in the VIES database. Let me know if it verifies in the database but not on Upwork and our team will assist you further.
If you need any other help with your VAT number I would recommend reaching out to a local specialist. Thank you.
Jun 9, 2020 05:51:25 AM by Tihomir B
Hi Goran,
Upwork's VAT ID number can't be verified in the VIES database. That's what they say in FAQs too:
17. Why doesn't Upwork's VAT number show up in the VIES system?
Companies registered via the MOSS system (like Upwork) receive a uniquely formatted VAT ID from the European tax authority. This number isn't verifiable in the VIES system.
So what I need is VAT ID number that can be used when assessing VAT I have to pay (on fee services by Upwork), if something like that exists. The problem is the same as in the previous replies of the members.

I would like a valid Upwork VAT ID for the EU as well. The one on the invoices can't be used since my VAT form requires a country code (for example RO for Romania), so the EU code can't be used.

Hello
I have the same problem as all the other people in this thread: I need a VIES valid VAT number for Upwork to file my taxes. The EU number that appears on the Upwork invoices is not recognized by the authorities in my country (Romania), or, it seems, any other country.
I am eternally curious as to WHY every question in this thread is dealt with privately via ticket, instead of just posting a **Edited for Community Guidelines** answer publicly to let everyone know. Is Upwork's VAT number a top secret???
Anyway, I hope to get an answer, some way or another... Thanks.

Hi,
I need to issue invoices for the services I provide. If my clients don't want their VAT on the invoices, should I invoice to Upwork?
If so, I would also like to have a valid VIES Upwork VAT ID for the EU. The one that's on the invoices (EU528002406) can't be validated by VIES, but is from EU, I suppose (because of the prefix).
If it is, but it's not validated by VIES, I need to charge additional 23% tax. But in my invoicing software, if I select client country as US, I should invoice without 23% tax. This EU is confusing me... I don't know if I should invoice as Communitary B2C (because of invalid on VIES), or outer community B2B.
