The no_vat parameter has been removed from all company registration endpoints across REST and SOAP APIs. This parameter previously allowed skipping VAT validation when registering companies, but is no longer needed or supported.
Affected API endpoints
SOAP API:
- 
register-no_vatfield inRegistrationParamsInstruct
- 
register_with_password-no_vatfield inRegistrationParamsInstruct
- 
register_with_odp_company_id-no_vatfield inRegistrationParamsInstruct
REST API:
- 
POST /api/v1/companies - no_vatparameter
- 
POST /api/v1/company_departments - no_vatparameter
What this means
The system now automatically handles business identifier validation without requiring manual specification of whether the identifier is a VAT number or not. Any no_vat parameter sent to registration endpoints will be ignored.
If you’re currently using the no_vat parameter in your integration, you can simply remove it from your API calls. The registration process will continue to work correctly without it.
