Ours is a Spanish site and we have 6 use cases for charging or not charging VAT:
Location ---> | -- Spain -- | -- EU - non-Spain -- | -- non-EU -- |
VAT entry on profile | Y | N | N |
No VAT Entry on profile | Y | Y | N |
So if someone has a valid VAT ID it still depends on their location (Spain or EU - non-Spain) to determine whether or not to charge the VAT. Does your extension handle this?
The module itself cannot handle the validation of VATIDs. But we have a "companion plugin" that can do that task.
With those 2 plugins you can establish the tax rules that are needed for a European B2B shop.
If the shop only addresses end customers, the plugin can be used on its own.
