# You may also use clean to extract vat number and country code
# The line bellow would print ('2785503', 'RO')
print (vies.clean('RO2785503'))$ pyvies <vat_number>
The number should start with the country code. For python3 you might have to set python encoding for your environment (e.g. export PYTHONIOENCODING=utf-8).
