TIN Format Validation Report

The TIN Format Validation report provides bulk visibility into whether a Tax Identification Number (TIN) matches the expected format for the selected jurisdiction, helping identify possible formatting issues, support remediation, and improve confidence before downstream reporting activities. Account Owner TIN records with a format validation result are included in this report for bulk review.

For more information on TIN syntax validation, please refer to the following guide: TIN Format Validation

See below for a description of each of the fields on the TIN Format Validation report.

Field	Description
accountownerid	The unique ID of the account owner included in the report.
account_owner_type	The account owner type associated with the record.
taxcountrycode	The jurisdiction code associated with the TIN that was checked for format validation.
maskedtin	The masked TIN value that was evaluated against the expected jurisdiction format.
tinformatvalidationresult	The format validation outcome for the TIN value based on jurisdiction-specific syntax rules.
error_message	Additional detail explaining why the TIN was flagged, including cases where the country or TIN is incomplete or where no TIN is generally issued in that country.

Understanding the Result

A passing (VALID) syntax result means the identifier matches the expected jurisdiction format.
A failing (INVALID) syntax result means the identifier does not match the expected format rules for the jurisdiction selected. Further details can be found in the “error_message” column.

Please note: A failing syntax result does not necessarily mean the user entered the wrong person or entity information everywhere in the record. It means the identifier itself does not match the expected structure for the selected jurisdiction.
