VATINValidatorBundle

A Symfony bundle for for validating VAT identification numbers (VATINs) based on VATINValidator PHP library.

Installation

This bundle is available on Packagist.

You can install this bundle using composer

$ composer require ricardonavarrom/vatin-validator-bundle

or add the package to your composer.json file directly.

After you have installed the package, you just need to add the bundle to your AppKernel.php file:

// in AppKernel::registerBundles()
$bundles = array(
    // ...
    new ricardonavarrom\VATINValidatorBundle\VATINValidatorBundle(),
    // ...
);

Configuration

VATINValidatorBundle requires no initial configuration to get you started.

Basic usage

The configured validator is available as ricardonavarrom.vatin_validator service. You must assign a valid locale (view availables locales section).

$locale = 'es';
$vatin = '56475114V';
$validator = $container->get('ricardonavarrom.vatin_validator');
$vatinIsValid = $validator->validate($vatin, $locale);

Another option is to use a located validator service as ricardonavarrom.vatin_validator.es (view availables locales section).

$vatin = '56475114V';
$locatedValidator = $container->get('ricardonavarrom.vatin_validator.es');
$vatinIsValid = $locatedValidator->validate($vatin);

Availables locales

Locale	Country	Local name
es	Spain	Número de Identificación Fiscal (for freelancers or singular persons), Número de Identidad de Extranjero (for foreigners) or Código de Identificación Fiscal (for companies)
pt	Portugal	Número de identificação fiscal (for freelancers or singular persons) or Número de Identificação de Pessoa Colectiva (for companies)
We are working to implement more availables locales.

Constraints

VATINValidatorBundle provides the following constraints:

Constraint	Country	Options
VATINEsConstraint	Spain	message: string (default: 'The VATIN "%vatin%" is not a valid "%validationModality%".'). allowLowerCase: boolean (default: true). validationModality: 'NIF', 'NIE' or 'CIF' (by default checks in all validation modalities).
VATINPtConstraint	Portugal	message: string (default: 'The VATIN "%vatin%" is not a valid "%validationModality%".'). validationModality: 'NIF' or 'NIPC' (by default checks in all validation modalities).
For example:

// src/AppBundle/Entity/Customer.php
namespace AppBundle\Entity;

use ricardonavarrom\VATINValidatorBundle\Validator\Constraints\VATINEsConstraint;

class Customer
{
    /**
     * @VATINEsConstraint(
     *  allowLowerCase = false,
     *  validationModality = "NIF"
     * )
     */
    private $vatin;
}
