Proper date and timezone in the VIES response
Where we used to have an issue with the time always being set to 02:00 was in fact the timezone the request was made and not the time. As was researched by @cottton, the VIES service returns only the date and the timezone where the request was made for.
So now this VIES service will return you the correct date and the correct timezone, but as the time itself is not returned, it will default to "00:00:00".
Kudos to @cottton for raising the issue and fixing the problem. 🏅
