The EU VAT Assistant doesn’t determine the VAT applied to orders, that depends on WooCommerce. To apply a 22% VAT to everyone, you will need to configure the appropriate tax rates at WooCommerce > Settings > Tax. This is outside the scope of our support service, you can refer to the official WooCommerce documentation for more information: https://woocommerce.com/document/setting-up-taxes-in-woocommerce/
In relation to the following:
1. If the country is Italy
22% VAT will be applicable to individual/company for the respective selection in the dropdown.I’m not sure what you mean with “selection in the dropdown”. If you refer to a dropdown to choose between individual and company, the EU VAT Assistant doesn’t show that field.
2. If the country is Europe
22% VAT will be applicable to individual & for company, the VAT will be exempt for companyOut of the box, the EU VAT Assistant flags the order for an exemption if a valid EU VAT number is entered and customer’s country is different from the shop’s base country. This ensures that the order is processed without VAT.
3. If country is Extra UE
22% VAT will be applicable to individual & for company VAT will be exempt for companyThe EU VAT Assistant doesn’t validate VAT numbers for extra-EU companies. As indicated before, it also doesn’t offer a field to choose between “individual” and “company”, and it can’t add an exemption based on that. You will need some custom code, or another plugin, for that purpose.
This plugin should collect all the required fields like
Province , PEC/univical code,fiscal code etc.The EU VAT Assistant only collects the standard billing country and adds the VAT number to the checkout. Fields like PEC or “codice fiscale” are outside the scope of the plugin, and not supported.
Additional notes
1. The EU VAT Assistant is flexible and it can be extended and customised to implement the behaviour you described. However, as indicated on the plugin page, the EU VAT Assistant will be retired on the 30th of June 2022. Due to that, we would recommend to switch a different solution, so that you won’t have to implement the custom features twice. We recommend the VAT Compliance plugin, by Simba Hosting.
2. The EU VAT Assistant doesn’t support the validation of UK VAT numbers, and can’t apply an exemption for them. If you need to be able to validate UK VAT numbers, the VAT Compliance plugin by Simba Hosting can handle that aspect.
