How do I add or update my company's Tax ID/VAT ID number in my SAP Business Network supplier account?

Why is my account pending suspension because of a missing VAT/Tax ID when the Tax ID is already added in the Company Profile?

SAP Business Network

In the start of 2025, the tax team rolled out a tax enforcement flow for around 40 different countries. If the Tax ID or VAT ID information is missing, the account will be suspended. The Tax ID/VAT ID should be entered as mandatory information both in the Company Profile and in Additional Entities in order for the account to have full legal eligibility.

Wie füge ich die Steuernummer in mein Konto Ariba-Konto hinzu?

• The Value-Added Tax (VAT) ID is an identifying number assigned to your company for value-added tax purposes. Your company's Accounts Payable department should be able to let you know your VAT ID.

• As Australian suppliers do not use VAT, if you encounter Tax ID/VAT ID related errors, another option to complete the validation is to use the ABN number as VAT.
• KEEP IN MIND that for many countries, the VAT number (or equivalent tax ID used for VAT/GST) starts with a 2-letter country code, especially in Europe:
