Why is it necessary to verify the GST number?
Sandbox’s GST number search helps you search GSTIN online and check GST number details instantly using the official GST database.
By entering a valid GST Identification Number (GSTIN), you can verify whether a GST number is active and view key GST registration details before entering into any business transaction.
What is a GST number (GSTIN)?
A GST number, also known as GSTIN (Goods and Services Tax Identification Number), is a 15-digit unique identification number issued to businesses registered under GST in India.
A GST number is used to:
Identify GST-registered taxpayers
Track GST compliance
Verify the legal identity of a business
Check GST active status during vendor or customer onboarding
GST number format (GSTIN structure)
A GST number follows a standardized 15-digit format, where each part has a specific meaning:

First 2 digits: State code where the business is registered
Next 10 characters: PAN of the business or individual
13th digit: Entity number of the PAN holder within the state
14th digit: Alphabet “Z” (default value)
15th digit: Check digit for error detection
Understanding the GST number format helps you identify whether a GSTIN is structurally valid before proceeding with verification.
Why GST number verification is important for businesses?
GST number verification is an essential step before entering into financial or contractual transactions with any business in India.
Prevent fraud
Fake GST numbers are often used in fraudulent invoicing. Verifying GST numbers helps ensure that invoices and transactions are linked to genuine registered businesses.
Avoid ITC issues
Input Tax Credit can only be claimed when dealing with valid GST-registered vendors. Verifying GST numbers reduces the risk of ITC rejection and reconciliation errors.
Ensure compliance
Businesses must maintain accurate GST records and transact with valid GST-registered entities. Verification helps maintain compliance and reduces audit risks.
Confirm active GST status
A GST number may be active, cancelled, or suspended. Checking status before transactions prevents legal and operational issues.
