Asunto: [Servercert-wg] Voting Begins for Ballot SC-68: Allow VATEL and VATXI for organizationIdentifier
This email initiates the voting period for ballot SC-68. Please vote.
Purpose of the Ballot
The EV Guidelines have strict rules in the organizationIdentifier values and require the country code of all currently-allowed Registration Schemes (NTR, VAT, PSD) to follow the ISO 3166-1 for the 2-letter country prefix.
The organizationIdentifier language mainly came from ETSI EN 319 412-1 and then the SCWG made several modifications. However, there is an exception for Greece specifically for the VAT Registration Scheme that is aligned with Article 215 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC <https://ddec1-0-en-ctp.trendmicro.com:443/wis/clicktime/v1/query?url=https%3a%2f%2feur%2dlex.europa.eu%2feli%2fdir%2f2006%2f112%2foj&umid=be7cf619-01d7-48f6-a07c-0c408903ae66&auth=ff9bf8e7070cf45d05b48c5ddfe8c577253e1ba1-c1ebe17b527ef28ca9ae8a44096c7af2a264d95d> that allows Greece to use the country prefix "EL". In practice, Greece uses the prefix "EL" to identify itself next to the VAT number of all Legal Entities registered/incorporated/established in Greece, and all other European Countries use this prefix to identify Greek VAT numbers. This can easily be verified in the VIES VAT number validation website <https://ddec1-0-en-ctp.trendmicro.com:443/wis/clicktime/v1/query?url=https%3a%2f%2fec.europa.eu%2ftaxation%5fcustoms%2fvies%2f%23%2fvat%2dvalidation&umid=be7cf619-01d7-48f6-a07c-0c408903ae66&auth=ff9bf8e7070cf45d05b48c5ddfe8c577253e1ba1-1e2c83e837940a600b64cd8fdbe3271ae61f65ae> where Greece is listed as"EL".
There is also Council Directive 2020/1756 <https://ddec1-0-en-ctp.trendmicro.com:443/wis/clicktime/v1/query?url=https%3a%2f%2fdata.europa.eu%2feli%2fdir%2f2020%2f1756%2foj&umid=be7cf619-01d7-48f6-a07c-0c408903ae66&auth=ff9bf8e7070cf45d05b48c5ddfe8c577253e1ba1-c09d5da9f0dcfaf2820a4bfb3be57bce0608fc0c> amending Directive 2006/112/EC that requires the prefix "XI" for the identification of taxable persons in Northern Ireland.
