If she was writing that her Portuguese tax number is not being accepted by the Upwork system, then I am having the same problem.
I can verify my tax number on international tax websites, but for some reason Upwork is not accepting it. I tried putting "PT" in front of the 9 digits and also without it.
Any ideas?

Jon Eric,
Please, make sure your VAT ID # is verifiable on this site and enter it to your Upwork account in the same format.

Maria,
Unfortunately, VAT number you have entered couldn't be validated. Please, make sure your VAT ID # is verifiable on this site and enter it to your Upwork account in the same format.

Hello Adriana,
I have the same problem. I tried to put PT and then my NIF but it is not accepted. What I'm doing wrong?
thank you!

That site (vies), says my "VAT" number is invalid, but it's valid in Portugal! So maybe one of two things: (a) The tax number that Portugal issues is not compatible with the rest of the EU or (b) I need to be a proper company and not just be an individual which doesn't make sense at all! So if I can't provide a valid "VAT" number, I will be charged VAT... I will be charged VAT just for having an account on upwork with no work yet? That doesn't make sense!
Please clarify!

Hi Joanne,
I'm basically trying to insert my portuguese VAT number in order to be able to pay taxes here in Portugal, I tried in different formats (digits, PTdigits, PT digits, ...) but none of them have been accepted, but I'm 100% sure my VAT is correct.
Is there any solution to this problem?
thanks is advance

The VAT number in PT has to be a company (registered single person company as well) VAT number (starting with 5). It cannot be an individual person's VAT number. That's why maybe it doesn't accept it.
