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).
