Error: Your IP Address does not match your billing country. Please contact us to

I can exactly the same issue. I am in Austria. I try to pay for something on my website (to test that it works) and it says my ip is not in Austria – it definitely is and I have no VPN running

The ability to switch off this check would solve our problem.
This is vital if the system isn’t working correctly as i’m losing customers

rachelsquires I don’t know if you found a fix but if not here’s what you can do.
Edit the file includes/class-vgs-edd-eu-vat-compliance-checks.php

comment out line 45:
//edd_set_error(‘country_not_match’, __(‘Your IP Address does not match your billing country. Please contact us to complete your order’, ‘vgs_edd_eu_vat_compliance’));

…this will now ignore the IP check. It’s not a perfect solution (it will be overriden if you update the plugin) but as the author hasn’t come back to review the problem it is the only option to go with for now.

I had a similar problem.
Did you install the database as suggested in the instructions?
Once I did that, the IP detection appeared to work.
