When you say you create a business customer, are you creating a Customer Object?

If so, you can list all customer tax IDs and see if they have a VAT ID

When you say you create a business customer, are you creating a Customer Object?

Yes

#

My point is if this customer is German I have to collect its VAT ID.

But if the customer is Canadian, I don't need its VAT ID.

#

I'd like to know if based on the customer's country I have to get it's VAT ID

It depends on if you're storing the customer's address.
If you are, then you can retrieve the customer object and look at their address.

If not, the alternative would be to use their IP address to geolocate

I will store the address in the stripe customer object

#

Now, that I have my customer and his address are stored in Stripe

#

Is there any api call that can tell me if the customer has to fill his VAT ID based on his address ?

Not that I am aware of. You will need to decide this on your own.
