What is an EORI Number?
The Economic Operators Registration and Identification number(EORI number) is a unique EU-valid number, that enables the identification of businesses registered as economic operators dealing with the import/export of goods to/from the union. Companies should be able to present a valid EORI number when customs activities are involved.
What should an EORI number look like? Where may I validate it?
The EORI number should start with the country-specific ISO code (ex. DE for Germany) followed by up to 17 digits.

How to apply for an EORI number?
EU entities should apply for an EORI number in the country where they are established. Foreign entities should apply for an EORI number in the EU country in which they first file a customs declaration. In such cases, indirect representation is required for the successful import/export of the goods. For more information regarding the application, please visit the official customs pages of the countries where Hive operates.
