404 ENTITY_NOT_FOUND No VAT rate exists with this id, including after deletion.
400 INVALID_PARAMS id is not a non-negative integer, for example abc.
422 BITRIX_ERROR Bitrix24 rejected the request. See error.message for the reason and error.b24Code for the original code.
403 WRITE_BLOCKED_READONLY_KEY Writes are blocked: the key is read-only.
403 SCOPE_DENIED The key does not have the catalog scope.
401 MISSING_API_KEY The X-Api-Key header is missing.
401 TOKEN_MISSING The key has no configured Bitrix24 tokens. For an OAuth application key, check the user session.

Known specifics

Before deleting a rate, check the products that use it. Find them with GET /v1/catalog-products?filter[vatId]=25 and assign another rate if needed.

To deactivate a rate while retaining its record, first check its current rate. If rate is numeric, send PATCH /v1/catalog-vat-rates/:id with {"active": "N"}. For an existing "No VAT" rate with rate: null, this PATCH is rejected with 422 BITRIX_ERROR and Required fields: rate. The record remains active. An active-only PATCH cannot deactivate it while rate remains null.
