Quick Start Tutorial

Verify a European Union company in 3 steps:

1Make API Request

Use the /v1/check/vat endpoint with European Union company identifier:

curl -X POST https://api.scorika.com/v1/check/company \
  -H "X-Api-Key: sk_live_your_api_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"identifier": "DE123456789", "country": "EU"}'

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://api.scorika.com/v1/check/company",
    headers={"X-Api-Key": "sk_live_your_api_key"},
    json={"identifier": "DE123456789", "country": "EU"}
)
print(response.json())

const res = await fetch('https://api.scorika.com/v1/check/company', {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: {'X-Api-Key': 'sk_live_your_api_key', 'Content-Type': 'application/json'},
  body: JSON.stringify({identifier: 'DE123456789', country: 'EU'})
});
console.log(await res.json());

require 'net/http'
uri = URI('https://api.scorika.com/v1/check/company')
http = Net::HTTP.new(uri.host, uri.port)
http.use_ssl = true
req = Net::HTTP::Post.new(uri)
req['X-Api-Key'] = 'sk_live_your_api_key'
req['Content-Type'] = 'application/json'
req.body = '{"identifier": "DE123456789", "country": "EU"}'
