WooCommerce Eu Vat & B2B GPL v13.0

WooCommerce EU VAT & B2B GPL Overview

The WooCommerce EU VAT & B2B (WCEV) plugin is designed to enhance your WooCommerce store by adding an EU VAT number field, which can be dynamically shown during checkout based on the selected billing country. This plugin is ideal for businesses operating within the EU or those offering services to businesses, as it facilitates VAT validation, tax exemptions, and the ability to manage B2B (business-to-business) registrations and transactions.

Key Features of WooCommerce EU VAT & B2B Plugin

1. Dynamic VAT Number Field:
   • The VAT number field is only shown during checkout if the customer’s billing country is part of the European Union.
   • The field is also available on the user profile page (billing address) and can be made mandatory or optional by the store admin.
2. VAT Validation:
   • VIES Validation: The plugin can validate VAT numbers using the VIES (VAT Information Exchange System) to ensure that the entered VAT number is valid.
   • Format Check: Alternatively, the plugin can check whether the VAT number is in a valid format without connecting to VIES.
3. Tax Exemption:
   • If a valid VAT number is entered, the plugin can automatically remove VAT taxes from the checkout, product pages, and cart.
   • This feature can be applied to all users with a VAT number or specifically to users with the same billing country as the shop base location.
4. B2B Registration and Sales:
   • The plugin allows you to restrict registration to only businesses with valid VAT numbers, ensuring that only B2B customers can register.
   • You can make the Billing Company Name field required for business customers, ensuring that only B2B sales are processed.
5. Consumer vs. Business Selector:
   • The plugin includes a Consumer/Business selector, which dynamically displays the company name and VAT fields only if the customer identifies themselves as a business.
   • For consumers, these fields are hidden, avoiding unnecessary form fields during checkout.
6. Special Fields for Specific Countries:
   • Italy: When Italy is selected as the billing country, fields like Codice Fiscale and SDI/Pec are shown, with validation for their format.
   • Spain: For Spanish customers, the plugin shows fields like NIF/NIE/CIF, with format validation.
   • Greece: For Greek businesses, additional fields for Tax Office and Business Activity are shown.
7. VAT Number Uniqueness Check:
   • The plugin can perform a uniqueness check to ensure that different users are not using the same VAT number.
8. Invoice Request Option:
   • Customers can request an invoice during checkout, which will trigger the display of the VAT field.
   • You can configure the field to only appear if the customer requests an invoice.
9. Frontend and Backend Integration:
   • Frontend: The EU VAT field is seamlessly integrated into the checkout, order details pages, and order emails.
   • Backend: The VAT number and invoice request details are available in the WooCommerce admin panel, allowing the shop admin to easily retrieve this information from the order details and order list pages.
10. Support for Italy’s Fatturazione Elettronica:
    • For Italian customers, the plugin supports the Fatturazione Elettronica system by showing the SDI/Pec field, allowing the customer to enter their SDI code or Pec address.
11. WPML Support:
    • The plugin supports WPML, allowing you to localize field labels, placeholders, and validation messages for different languages.
