VAT identification number

...or sometimes "EU VAT identification number".

See e.g. the professional body for chartered accountants in England and Wales:

A "VAT registration number", sometimes shortened to "VAT number", refers to a purely national VAT registration number (which only exists in some states, e.g. UK, but not e.g. in Germany).

To clarify: if it\'s e.g. a British company, then \"VAT reg no.\" (given that you\'re starting with an abbreviation) would be correct. If it\'s a German firm, then \"EU VAT ID No.\" would be accurate.
