TaxId

A taxpayer's identification number, with the country that issued it.

Use it for tax numbers from any country, such as in tax residence forms. For a known UK or US number, UkUtr, UkNationalInsuranceNumber or UsSsn checks it more closely.

Shape

Its parts keep these rules, and a value that breaks one fails with the rule's name:

• number_of_country: number is in the form of its country's numbers

Example

TaxId { country: Country.gb number: "AB123456C" }

Good to know

• text.format shows only the last four characters, •••• 456C.
• == tells you whether two are the same. < and list.sort_by don't take it, so sort by one of its parts instead.
• A field that holds one counts as personal data (government_id), so you don't mark it yourself.

In JSON

An object of its parts, in a request, a response or json.write:

{"country":"GB","number":"AB123456C"}{"country":"US","number":"123456789"}
