It’s free, has no Pro version, and shows no branding in your store. Settings live under WooCommerce > Settings > Tax > VAT Right. **What it does** * Adds a VAT number field to the block checkout, the classic checkout, My Account and the admin order screen. Numbers are checked for format first, then against the official registry. * An optional VAT number field on the My Account registration form (off by default), checked by the same registry pipeline. A registry outage never blocks registration. * Per-role VAT exemption (no roles by default): orders from customers with a role you choose are exempt, with the role recorded on the order. A role isn’t a legal basis for exemption on its own, so correctness is up to you. * Registries: VIES for EU numbers, HMRC for GB numbers (needs your own free HMRC developer credentials, see the FAQ), the Swiss UID register for CHE numbers and the Brønnøysund register for Norwegian numbers. * Applies reverse charge to B2B sales with a valid number, with the wording required on the order, emails and invoice text (filterable and translatable). A valid number from your own country never exempts unless you switch that on. * Charges B2C customers your country’s VAT below the EUR 10,000 OSS threshold and the destination country’s VAT above it, switching automatically. You can also tell the plugin you’re OSS-registered to always charge destination VAT. * Digital products use location evidence (billing country, shipping country and geolocation). When the evidence conflicts, the customer is asked to confirm their country, and an optional setting blocks checkout until they do (block and classic checkout). * Imports standard and reduced rates from the EU’s TEDB into your WooCommerce tax classes. It shows a diff first and never changes a rate until you apply it. A tax class mapping screen sets which EU rate each class follows, per country. * Optional fixed gross prices across EU countries for stores that enter prices with tax. * Records the decision on every order: the number, the registry answer, the VIES consultation number when you’ve entered your own VAT number, the location evidence and the rule that applied. An EU VAT box on the order screen shows it, with a decision log and a button to re-check the number. * Re-checks numbers that couldn’t be validated at checkout and can email you when one validates after the order was placed. * A VAT column on the orders list shows each order’s VAT number, its validation status and the treatment applied, with a filter for orders pending validation or flagged. Works with HPOS and the legacy order screen. * Emails the store admin when cross-border EU consumer sales reach a share of the EUR 10,000 OSS threshold (80% by default) and again when they pass it, once a year each. Edit or turn it off under WooCommerce > Settings > Emails. * Quarterly OSS return and EC Sales List reports with CSV export, in EUR. Orders in other currencies are converted at the ECB reference rate. * OSS return and EC Sales List for a single month or any date range as well as a quarter, in the screen, the CSV and the REST endpoints. * Optional setting to refuse an order when the company name doesn’t match the registry’s name for the VAT number, on the block and the classic checkout. Spain’s VIES verdict decides where it gives one; otherwise the name is compared with the one VIES returns, ignoring case, accents, punctuation and legal forms. When no name is returned, the order is accepted. * Separate EU and UK store VAT numbers: UK customers see the UK number on their orders and in the admin record, everyone else the EU number, and each registry gets its own as the requester. With one number set nothing changes. * Optional business-only mode: customers must give a valid VAT number to order, everywhere, in the EU or in countries you choose, on the block and classic checkout. * Monthly INTRASTAT report of physical goods dispatched to other member states, with CN8 code, country of origin and net mass per product, and CSV export. The CSV is the data to file; thresholds and file formats differ per member state. * REST endpoints for both reports and for the VAT data of a single order, restricted by capability. * A setup check lists what’s missing: your VAT number, tax rates for destination countries, geolocation and HMRC credentials. * Works with HPOS and with the block and classic checkouts. Integrates with WooCommerce Subscriptions renewal hooks, see the FAQ. * Registers WordPress personal data exporters and erasers, and a retention setting for the stored data. ### External services The plugin contacts the services below.

You, the store owner, are responsible for your VAT treatment and your filings. VAT rates and registry results come from third parties and can be wrong or out of date, so check them with an accountant. The plugin is provided without warranty and without liability, under the GPL. ## 螢幕擷圖 [⌊Block checkout with a valid VAT number and the reverse charge notice.⌉⌊Block checkout with a valid VAT number and the reverse charge notice.⌉[ Block checkout with a valid VAT number and the reverse charge notice.

Make sure WooCommerce is active, then install and activate VAT Right. 2. Go to WooCommerce > Settings > General and tick “Enable tax rates and calculations”. WooCommerce hides the Tax tab until you do. 3. Go to WooCommerce > Settings > Tax > VAT Right and read the setup check. 4. Enter your store VAT number so VIES can return a consultation number for each check. 5. Apply the EU rates in the rates table at the bottom of the screen, or map your tax classes first. ## 常見問題集 ### What happens when VIES is down? Checkout still works. By default the order is accepted, VAT is charged and the order is flagged as pending validation. The plugin checks the number again later and, if it validates, marks the order and can email you so you can refund the VAT. The setting “When a registry is unavailable” offers two alternatives: accept the order, exempt the VAT and re-check later, or don’t accept the order. Registry requests time out after a few seconds. Exempting while a registry is down lets anyone enter a made-up number for that country, so the VAT is yours to recover if the re-check fails. ### How do I validate UK VAT numbers? HMRC only answers requests that carry credentials from a registered application, so you need your own. They’re free. 1. Create an account at the [HMRC Developer Hub](https://developer.service.hmrc.gov.uk/). 2. Register an application and subscribe it to the VAT Registered Companies API (check a UK VAT number). 3. Copy the client ID and client secret from the application. 4. Paste them into WooCommerce > Settings > Tax > VAT Right > HMRC. Without credentials, GB numbers are only format-checked and a business customer in the UK is treated as a consumer. ### Does it work with WooCommerce Subscriptions? The plugin hooks into the WooCommerce Subscriptions renewal and switch hooks. A renewal is decided as a new sale: the subscription’s stored registry answer is reused while it’s fresh, otherwise the number is checked again, and the decision is stored on the renewal order. If a renewal can’t be decided, VAT is charged. This has been tested against a stand-in for the Subscriptions hooks, not against the WooCommerce Subscriptions plugin itself. ### Can I switch from another EU VAT plugin? Yes. VAT Right reads the VAT numbers WooCommerce EU VAT Number, EU/UK VAT Validation Manager (WPFactory), Aelia EU VAT Assistant and EU/UK VAT Compliance (Simba) saved on orders and customers, so past orders, invoices and checkout keep them. Under WooCommerce > Settings > Tax > VAT Right, the import counts what it found, then copies the numbers, the validation results and the store’s own VAT number into VAT Right in the background. It works with the other plugin deactivated, keeps any number VAT Right already holds and leaves the other plugin’s data as it is. From the command line: `wp vatright import --dry-run`, then `wp vatright import`. VAT Right prints the customer’s VAT number in the order’s billing address, and also saves it in the `_billing_vat_number` and `_vat_number_is_valid` order fields invoice plugins read. Turn that off under Data > Invoice plugins. ### What personal data does the plugin store, and for how long? It stores the customer’s VAT number, the registry’s name, address and consultation number for it, and the IP country evidence used for digital sales, on the order, in the plugin’s ledger table and, for logged-in customers, in their account. After the retention period (10 years by default, counted from the end of the year of the sale, which matches the OSS record-keeping period) the plugin removes the personal data from the decision record and ledger rows and keeps the scheme, rule, amounts and country evidence. Exporters and erasers are registered with the WordPress privacy tools. All plugin data is kept when you delete the plugin, unless you tick “Delete all plugin data when the plugin is deleted”. ### Which services does the plugin call? See “External services” below. Nothing else is contacted, and the plugin makes no request unless a VAT number, a rate update or a currency conversion needs it. ### Are there known limitations? Each of these errs on the side of charging VAT. * Consulting, legal, advertising and similar services to consumers outside the EU (Article 59 of the VAT Directive) are charged your store’s VAT. * Business customers in the UK are treated as consumers unless you add your own HMRC API credentials. Swiss and Norwegian numbers that can’t be checked at checkout are charged VAT until they’re re-checked. * In a cart that’s partly exempt because of a domestic exemption, the exempt line is charged VAT. * On carts in a currency other than EUR, the threshold display updates at checkout, not on every cart recalculation. * A valid VAT number removes VAT without checking that the buyer is that company, so a published number belonging to someone else would pass. ## 使用者評論 這個外掛目前沒有任何使用者評論。 ## 參與者及開發者 以下人員參與了開源軟體〈VAT Right – EU VAT & OSS for WooCommerce〉的開發相關工作。 參與者 * [ Jean Galea ](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jeangalea/) [將〈VAT Right – EU VAT & OSS for WooCommerce〉外掛本地化為台灣繁體中文版](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/vatright) ### 對開發相關資訊感興趣？ 任何人均可[瀏覽程式碼](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/vatright/)、查看 [SVN 存放庫](https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/vatright/)，或透過 [RSS](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/log/vatright/?limit=100&mode=stop_on_copy&format=rss) 訂閱[開發記錄](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/log/vatright/)。 ## 變更記錄 #### 0.1.7 * New: import VAT numbers and settings from WooCommerce EU VAT Number, EU/UK VAT Validation Manager (WPFactory), EU/UK VAT Compliance (Simba) and Aelia EU VAT Assistant, under WooCommerce > Settings > Tax > VAT Right or with `wp vatright import`. A dry run shows the counts first; nothing is overwritten and the other plugin’s data is left as it was. * New: until you import, VAT numbers another VAT plugin saved on orders and customer accounts are read in place, so past orders and saved numbers keep working after you switch. * New: the customer’s VAT number now prints in the order’s billing address, so invoice plugins that show the address show the number too. * New: VAT Right also saves the VAT number and validity in the order fields most invoice plugins read. On by default, and never written over another plugin’s value. * Privacy: erasing a customer’s data, and the retention clean-up, now also remove VAT numbers another VAT plugin saved on their orders and account. #### 0.1.6 * New: OSS return and EC Sales List reports for a month or any date range, as well as by quarter, in the screen, CSV and REST. * New: option to refuse an order when the company name doesn’t match the registry. VIES’s own verdict decides where it gives one; otherwise the name is compared with the one VIES returns, ignoring case, accents, punctuation and legal forms. Off by default. * New: a separate UK store VAT number, used for UK customers on orders, emails and HMRC checks. #### 0.1.5 * New: option to block checkout until the customer confirms their country when the billing and IP countries disagree, on the block and classic checkouts. Off by default. * New: business-only mode, requiring a valid VAT number to order, everywhere, in the EU or in chosen countries. * New: INTRASTAT report with CSV export and REST endpoint, and per-product commodity code, country of origin and net mass. * New: VAT number field on the registration form, off by default. * New: VAT-exempt user roles, recorded on every order they exempt. * New: VAT column and VAT-status filter on the orders list. * New: email warning when cross-border EU consumer sales near the EUR 10,000 threshold, and again when they pass it. * Fix: a VAT number typed while creating an account at the classic checkout is now saved to the account. #### 0.1.4 * Fix: on hosts where WordPress fetches over cURL with OpenSSL 3, VIES checks failed and business customers were charged VAT. Registry requests now ask for uncompressed answers. #### 0.1.3 * Fix: a number VIES rejects (invalid input or blocked) is now treated as invalid, not as the registry being unavailable. * When VIES turns the store away for too many requests, VAT is charged and the number checked later, whatever the outage setting. * Uninstall removes the plugin’s own options one by one instead of flushing the whole object cache. #### 0.1.2 * Fix: with “When a registry is unavailable” set to exempt the VAT, a number that was never checked against a registry is now charged VAT and flagged, and only a registry that was tried and failed leads to the exemption. #### 0.1.1 * First release. ## 中繼資料 * 版本 **0.1.7** * 最後更新 **2 天前** * 啟用安裝數 **少於 10 次** * WordPress 版本需求 ** 6.6 或更新版本 ** * 已測試相容的 WordPress 版本 **7.1.4** * PHP 版本需求 ** 7.4 或更新版本 ** * 語言 * [English (US)](https://wordpress.org/plugins/vatright/) * 標籤: * [eu vat](https://tw.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/eu-vat/)[oss](https://tw.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/oss/) [reverse charge](https://tw.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/reverse-charge/)[vat](https://tw.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/vat/) [woocommerce](https://tw.wordpress.org/plugins/tags/woocommerce/) * [進階檢視](https://tw.wordpress.org/plugins/vatright/advanced/) ## 評分 這個項目尚無任何評論記錄。 [撰寫評分](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/vatright/reviews/#new-post) [查看全部使用者評論](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/vatright/reviews/) ## 參與者 * [ Jean Galea ](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jeangalea/) ## 技術支援 使用者可在技術支援論壇提出意見反應或使用問題。 [檢視技術支援論壇](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/vatright/)
