WooCommerce EU VAT Number 3.0.2

WooCommerce EU VAT Number

Within the context of this support document for the extension of the EU VAT Number, the abbreviation EU refers to the European Union.

EU VAT Number for WooCommerce allows you to:

• At Checkout, Collect and Validate EU VAT Numbers
• If it’s absolutely required, exempt enterprises from having to pay the VAT (Value-Added Tax).
• In B2C transactions, the user’s location should be collected and validated.
• Handle EU Tax regulations for digital products

The staff at WooCommerce.com may provide assistance with establishing tax rates in the WooCommerce settings and with determining how the platform handles taxes, VAT, and GST in accordance with these settings; but, they cannot provide guidance over when or how much to charge.

Because we are not tax specialists, the advise that we offer pertains to using our programme. We recommend that you speak with a tax professional or an accountant about what may be your best alternatives in order to obtain specific guidance regarding whether or not to charge taxes (such as VAT or GST) and when to do so.

Because every company is different, there is no way that we can account for every conceivable scenario.

The field for the EU VAT is always located at the very bottom of the standard billing fields by default. If you would rather relocate it to a different location, you may go to the tutorial that was linked to for a step-by-step guide on how to do so.
