Introducing Simple EU VAT Customizations – The Essential VAT Plugin for WooCommerce

We are excited to announce the release of our latest WooCommerce extension:
Simple EU VAT Customizations — a lightweight, reliable, and business-ready solution for managing EU VAT requirements directly inside your WordPress store.

Whether you sell B2B across the European Union or export globally, proper VAT handling is essential. Our new plugin ensures your store meets key compliance requirements without adding unnecessary complexity.

Why We Built This Plugin

Many small and mid-sized online shops need accurate EU VAT number validation, correct VAT rate handling, and compliant invoice labeling — but full-scale enterprise VAT systems are overkill.

Simple EU VAT Customizations fills this gap by offering a clean, focused feature set that improves VAT workflows for shop owners while keeping everything simple for daily use.

Key Features

✔ VAT Number Management in Order Admin

Add, edit, and store customer VAT numbers directly in the WooCommerce order admin screen. All VAT handling is intentionally kept admin-side for full shop owner control.

✔ Real-Time VIES Validation

VAT numbers are automatically validated using the official EU VIES service, with clear indicators shown in the order view.

✔ Automatic 0% VAT Handling

The plugin automatically applies the correct VAT logic based on customer location:

0% Intra-Community Supply for valid B2B customers within the EU
0% Export Outside the EU for all customers outside the EU

VAT totals are recalculated instantly in the order backend.

✔ PDF Invoice Integration

Seamlessly integrates with WooCommerce PDF Invoices & Packing Slips (WP Overnight):

Inserts VAT number into the invoice header
Displays the correct VAT 0% note (customizable)
Ensures consistent compliance on generated PDFs

✔ Customizable VAT Texts

A new settings section is added under WooCommerce → Settings → Tax, allowing administrators to define:

The text displayed for exports outside the EU
The text shown for intra-EU B2B supplies

✔ Clean Frontend Labeling

Optionally adjusts the “(incl. VAT)” label on product prices to display a more descriptive VAT notice.

Who Is This Plugin For?

This plugin is ideal for:

Small or medium-sized webshops selling across Europe
Stores that handle B2B orders manually
Merchants exporting outside the EU
Businesses needing correct VAT labeling on invoices
Anyone using WooCommerce + PDF Invoices & Packing Slips

If your store relies on accuratecross-border VAT logic but doesn’t need a full enterprise tax engine, this plugin is the perfect fit.
