Why does the letter with my DE VAT number arrive later than the letter with my Steuernummer?

The DE VAT number is issued later because a different German authority processes it, and it depends on the granting of the Steuernummer.

The letter with your DE VAT number typically arrives 4 to 5 weeks after the letter with your Steuernummer. This is because a separate German authority handles the process. The issuance of the Steuernummer triggers the DE VAT number request, which requires additional processing time.
