Fiscal enterprise number : SIREN in France

Each enterprise has a specific id given by a National Administration.
In France, this id is composed of two numbers : the enterprise number (SIREN) with 9
digits and the division number (SIRET) with 14 digits for more detail in a group
(different agencies in a bank, different factories in an industrial firm, different shops in
a group, different supermarkets…).
Example : SIREN number 732 829 320 (the 9th digit is a control key to find)
To control this SIREN number : 7 3 2 8 2 9 3 2 0
Digit on each even column x 2 : 6 16 18 4
Digit on each odd column x 1 : 7 2 2 3 0
Sum of these new digits : 7+6+2+(1+6)+2+(1+8)+3+4+0 = 40 (sum = 4 tens : OK)
Example : SIRET number for the 0007th factory of this society 732829320
To control : 7 3 2 8 2 9 3 2 0 0 0 0 7 4 (the 14th digit is a control key to find)
Digit on each even column x 1 : 3 8 9 2 0 0 4
Digit on each odd column x 2 : 14 4 4 6 0 0 14
Sum of these digits: (1+4)+3+4+8+4+9+6+2+0+0+0+0+(1+4)+4=50 (sum = 5 tens OK)

The European VAT number : FR 33 732829320 2 country letters, 11 digits

for France: 2 digits and the SIREN code
