Reviewed by Calculator Editorial Team

The TVA Intracommunautaire (Intra-Community VAT) number is a unique identifier used by French businesses for VAT transactions within the European Union. This calculator helps you compute the correct format for this number based on your SIRET number and VAT registration details.

What is TVA Intracommunautaire?

The TVA Intracommunautaire number, also known as the Intra-Community VAT number, is a 14-digit code used to identify French businesses for VAT purposes within the EU. It's derived from your SIRET number and VAT registration details.

This number is required when:

  • Selling goods or services to other EU countries
  • Importing goods from other EU countries
  • Filing VAT declarations with the French tax authorities

The TVA Intracommunautaire number is different from your SIRET number. While the SIRET identifies your business, the TVA Intracommunautaire number is used specifically for VAT transactions.

How to Calculate the TVA Intracommunautaire Number

The TVA Intracommunautaire number is calculated using your SIRET number and VAT registration details. Here's the standard format:

FR XX XXX XXX XXX

Where:

  • FR - Country code for France
  • XX - VAT department code (2 digits)
  • XXX XXX XXX - SIRET number (9 digits)

The VAT department code is determined by your business's location and VAT registration. Common codes include:

  • 01 - Paris
  • 02 - Seine-et-Marne
  • 03 - Yvelines
  • 04 - Essonne
  • 05 - Hauts-de-Seine
  • 06 - Seine-Saint-Denis
  • 07 - Val-de-Marne
  • 08 - Val-d'Oise

  1. Country code: FR
  2. VAT department code for Paris: 01
