    I was just wondering, I collect the VAT Identification Number of company purchasing on my checkout for EU B2B orders and verify using simba hosting eu/ uk vat verification plugin the VAT ID then gets passed to the pdf invoice and the woocommerce processing email, but doesn`t get passed to Stripe the payment processor.

    I have been onto stripe and they referred me back to woocommerce support with following information on enabling stripe tax id collection 2024 as its done in the checkout session. Can you help or is it that woocommerce is not enabled to do proper b2b transactions?

    Thanks in advance

    Hi @smarti9,

    Passing the VAT ID to Stripe is not a built-in feature. This is because the VAT ID is usually used for tax purposes and is not directly related to payment processing.

    However, there’s a workaround to this. You can use the wc_stripe_payment_metadata filter to pass the VAT ID to Stripe as metadata. Here is an example: https://woo.com/document/stripe/customization/products-as-metadata/

    Please note that writing or providing custom code is not within the scope of our support policy. If you are still having problems, we recommend asking development questions on the #developers channel of the WooCommerce Community Slack. Many of our developers hang out there and will be able to offer insights into your question. You can also seek help from the following:

    I wish I could help more, but hopefully, this gets you going in the right direction to get the job done.
