German VAT exemption problems

    Hi Guys,
    I am VAT registered here and have been buying some goods from Germany lately. I have found a new supplier that has fairly under cut my last one but the problem is he can not verify my VAT number. I have seen it myself, he is using the German governments site, but it also doesn't verify any UK or other Irish Vat numbers. Before you say to use the EU site to verify for some reason he refuses to use this. I did notice that this doesn't accept German Vat numbers. Has anyone else hit problems like this lately?

    I heard about a similar problem recently. In Germany they use different country codes for VAT. They use GB for the UK whereas we use UK. This causes the problems with the website. I bet it's something similar with the Irish code, we use IE, maybe they use IRL or something.
