"""VATIN (International value added tax identification number)

The number VAT identification number (VATIN) is an identifier used in many
countries. It starts with an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 (2 letters) country code
(except for Greece, which uses EL, instead of GR) and is followed by the
country-specific the identifier.

This module supports all VAT numbers that are supported in python-stdnum.
