VATIN: UFI codes based on VAT numbers allow full company lookup including name and address information through the VIES system.
COMPANY_KEY: UFI codes based on company keys provide limited information as they don't correspond to VAT numbers.
The aim of UFI is to simplify communication between the public and the Toxicological Information Centre. With its help, toxicology centres can easily identify the mixture and provide an adequate response in the event of an emergency call.
The decoder is able to decrypt the specified UFI code and display the VAT number and numerical formula code. Thanks to the connection with the VIES system, it determines the name of the company under which the UFI code has been created. No other information (e.g. product composition or classification) can be decoded from the UFI.
Do you know what company the UFI code was created under? Not sure what code number you used for the last product? Do you need to find out whether the correct VAT number is used in the UFI? The UFI decoder will simply help you with all these questions.
