SIRET Code
The SIRET code (French: ''Système d’identification du répertoire des établissements''), or SIRET number, is an INSEE code which allows the geographic identification of any French establishment or business. Construction This 14-figure numerical identifier is split into two parts: * the first is the SIREN code of the legal unit to which the SIRET unit belongs; * the second is usually called the NIC (internal ranking number; French: ''Numéro interne de classement''), and is made up of a four-figure number attributed to the establishment and a control figure used to validate the SIRET number as a whole. For example, 732 829 320 00074 would refer to the seventh establishment (followed by 4 as the check digit) of the business with SIREN number 732 829 320. Notable exceptions SIRET is not always a simple 14-digit number. In certain geographic areas like Monaco, it can also be a series of alphanumeric characters, for example, MONACOCONFO001.

SIREN Code
SIREN codes are given to French businesses and nonprofit associations, SIRET codes to their establishments and facilities. SIREN codes are maintained by the French INSEE. This is France-specific, and will not change during the lifetime of the business. SIREN codes have 9 digits. The first 8 digits are the business reference, the last one is a check digit. French public organizations have 1 or 2 as the first digit. The check digit uses the Luhn algorithm.

Luhn Formula
The Luhn algorithm or Luhn formula, also known as the " modulus 10" or "mod 10" algorithm, named after its creator, IBM scientist Hans Peter Luhn, is a simple checksum formula used to validate a variety of identification numbers, such as credit card numbers, IMEI numbers, National Provider Identifier numbers in the United States, Canadian Social Insurance Numbers, Israeli ID Numbers, South African ID Numbers, Swedish National identification numbers, Swedish Corporate Identity Numbers (OrgNr), Greek Social Security Numbers (ΑΜΚΑ), SIM card numbers, European patent application number and survey codes appearing on McDonald's, Taco Bell, and Tractor Supply Co. receipts. It is described in U.S. Patent No. 2,950,048, granted on August 23, 1960. The algorithm is in the public domain and is in wide use today. It is specified in ISO/IEC 7812-1. It is not intended to be a cryptographically secure hash function; it was designed to protect against accidental errors, not malicious a ...
