You have to import the module and use the function from the imported
namespace.

For example:

    from stdnum.pl import nip
    nip.validate('PL8921489098')

Or

    from stdnum import vatin
    vatin.validate('PL8921489098')

It is also possible to import the module like so:

    import stdnum.pl.nip
    stdnum.pl.nip.validate('PL8921489098')

and even:

    from stdnum.pl.nip import validate
    validate('PL8921489098')

(the last form has the downside that it is more difficult to import
multiple validate functions)

Hope this helps a bit,
