I'm currently using version 10.11.3 of this package and everything is working fine, but if I upgrade to the latest version (12.0.1), I start getting this error:

error TS2614: Module '".../node_modules/@types/validator"' has no exported member 'isMACAddress'. Did you mean to use 'import isMACAddress from ".../node_modules/@types/validator"' instead?

Is the type for that function no longer being exported?

Having a similar issue with isEmail, i had to import it like this

import * as val from "validator";
...
val.default.isEmail(); // this works

We had a similar issue with isIP, isFQDN and isNumeric , so it probably applies to all exports.
This happened probably after upgrading typescript to 3.7.5 or NodeJS to v12, but not sure.
import isFQDN from 'validator/lib/isFQDN' etc. solved the problem.

I just had the same issue with isEmail.
I am using validator@^13.0.0 and @types/validator@^13.0.0.

@Rogier076 solution worked for me.

import isEmail from 'validator/lib/isEmail';
