In the EU the same thing is used, depending on country I have seen it 
been called VAT-number or community code.

By law community code has to be printed on all invoices (and it is 
recommended to do it also on all trade related documents) from the 
invoicing party.

In intra-EU trade printing of the purchasing party's community code 
makes it possible to invoice without VAT charged. Definitely this is a 
field which should be added to the customer and supplier tables (as well 
as print-outs like quotations, order confirmations, invoices).
