Dear admin,
When are you planning to release the eStore addon to deal with the new EUVAT law? Is it possible to release it before 1st Jan 2015?
Thanks!
You can now use this addon for it:

Thank you for the effort, but this solution is not complete.
Many of us sell digital goods to both companies and private persons from within the EU, so there needs to be a distinction made between those two. The new laws only apply to private customers.
It would be best if the system worked in a more sophisticated way, using the following selectors:
( ) I’m a EU VAT registered business
( ) I’m a private person living in EU
After someone checks the EU VAT radio button, there is a field for business information to be typed in (at least the EU VAT number, preferably full address).
And after someone checks the ‘private person’ radio button, all goes like in your original addon. Possibly with full name and address to be required as well, as the new EU regulations REQUIRE the seller to present an evidence of the person’s location of origin in at least two ways (this could be physical address + IP address).
I would love integration with taxamo.
Also the plugin does work, but some ajax to refresh the summary total, would be nice, becuase changes dont reflect till a page is refreshed. check here [www.ddcreations.eu/store]
@MichelRondberg, The addon works with ajax option as well. Please update the following plugins and see how it goes:
1) WP eStore – https://support.tipsandtricks-hq.com/forums/topic/re-install-or-load-a-fresh-build-of-the-plugins
2) eStore extra shortcode addon – https://www.tipsandtricks-hq.com/ecommerce/wp-estore-shortcodes-and-functions-reference-460
Hi, are there plans to allow for the following
Businesses using payment service providers
A business which makes cross-border digital service supplies must obtain and keep 2 pieces of information to evidence where a consumer normally lives. This demonstrates that the correct rate of VAT has been charged and will be accounted for to the correct member state tax jurisdiction. For many micro and small businesses this requirement may be challenging. So, for micro and small businesses that use payment service providers, we suggest the following approach:
At the point of sale, ask the consumer to provide details of either their:
billing address, including the member state
telephone number, including the member state dialling code
When the consumer pays for the digital service, obtain from the payment service provider a notification advice containing the 2 digit country code of the consumer’s member state of residence as listed in their records.
If the 2 pieces of information tally, that will be sufficient to define the consumer’s location and you can record the details in your accounting records. However, if the information doesn’t tally, you must contact the consumer and ask them to reconcile the discrepancy between the 2 pieces of information.
Support for MOSS registered micro-businesses until 30 June 2015
UK micro-businesses that are below the current UK VAT registration threshold, and who register for the VAT Mini One Stop Shop (MOSS) may, until 30 June 2015, base their ‘customer location’ VAT taxation and accounting decisions on information provided to them by their payment service provider. This means the business need not require further information to be supplied by the customer. As payment service providers already collect and hold a minimum of 2 pieces of information about the member state where the customer usually resides, the transitional period, until 30 June 2015, will give micro-businesses additional time to adapt their websites to meet the new data collection requirements.
I agree with prezzz actually, that distinguishment would be good, and if they’re a business registered for VAT they should provide their VAT number, if they’re below the threshold they’ll need to provide more information.
Silly rule from the HMRC in my view
Sorry, still playing with the new add on, it would also be useful to show a message if there’s no VAT applicable, for example if I choose USA and click apply, it just refreshes the page without displaying anything (which could be mistaken for a bug on the page)
@mikemayhem3030, we have decided to integrate with taxamo.
[http://www.taxamo.com/]
I believe it will cover almost all the requirements.
