##### 2026-09-28

*Changes*

- `vatNumbers` can also be sent as `vat`, `vatNumber`, `vats`, `vatIds`, `ids` or other common field names, or as one text with values separated by commas or new lines.

##### 2026-09-27

*Changes*

- The watch field is now called `watchName`. Runs that still send the old name `watchKey` keep working.

##### 2026-09-24

*Changes*

- Lower price per VAT number check on every plan.

##### 2026-09-06

*Fixes*

- HTTP 403, 429 and 5xx answers from VIES are reported as `member_state_unavailable` instead of `error`.
- Watch mode failed when more than one of our actors used it in the same Apify account. Each actor now keeps its own snapshots.

##### 2026-09-02

*Features*

- First public version: bulk VIES validation for the 27 member states and Northern Ireland with name, address and consultation number, a local format check, a separate status for member states that are down and a watch mode that reports changes between runs.
