"""Partita IVA (Italian VAT number).

The Partita IVA (Imposta sul valore aggiunto) consists of 11 digits. The
first 7 digits are a company identifier, the next 3 refer to the province
of residence and the last is a check digit.

The fiscal code for individuals is not accepted as valid code for
intracommunity VAT related operations so it is ignored here.

>>> validate('IT 00743110157')
'00743110157'
>>> validate('00743110158')  # invalid check digit
Traceback (most recent call last):
