The Avox International Business Entity Identifier or AVID is an identifier assigned by Avox Limited. Avox assigns a unique identifier to each business entity it validates for its clients. The AVID can be delivered back to the client upon request. Avox maps each client's existing internal business entity identifier to the AVID so it is not necessary for Avox Community members to physically add another identifier to their infrastructure.

Customers can submit and track entity challenges at http://www.avoxdata.com/portal
