For this purpose, the Economic Operators Registration and Identification (EORI) number is reused. An EORI is unique and valid throughout the European Community and is assigned by a customs authority or designated authority in a Member State. More information (in Dutch) on this process can be found here. For Dutch parties, the EORI number is self-constructed by padding your RSIN with 0's until it is nine digits long, with the prefix EU.EORI.NL. For example, if your RSIN is 123456, your EORI number is EU.EORI.NL000123456.
Even non-European Community parties doing business in/with Europe have can request an EORI , but if no EORI is available, a party is also allowed to supply its Chamber of Commerce number as alternative identifiernumber at a National Trade Registry. The procedure to get an EORI number as a non-European Community party is detailed here for the Dutch customs authority.
Currently the following identifiers are supported in iSHARE:
