Add VAT to customer invoice

[Shahraam]

Hi, I would like to include VAT number in customer invoice? How could I do that?

[tuk66]

Which one? Yours or customer's?

Hi there I have the same issue. I'd like to add the customers vat to the invoice. Ideally it happens automatically if the customer has entered a vat number.

Also is it possible to add additional information to the invoice but onyl for certain groups.

So for a normal customer nothing needs to be added but for a B2B  customer from another european country I need the vat number and the information "Reverse charge".

There are more ways how to do it. Some things are automatic and some need code or template improvement.

 

Fro example, add vat_number to the Address format under Localization > Countries (for every country!) and the VAT number will appear at new invoices (only new!).

 

Again, there are more ways how to fix it and fullfill all your requirements.

Hi tuk66,

 

i changed this setting before generating the invoice but the vat number is not shown. Or ist it only for new orders after I changed it?

And to which vat number does this refer? To the SIRET which has to be entered at customer details, identification number or vat number which have to be entered in address details?

 

Also what about the option Do you need a tax identification number? in the country settings? Does this have to be enabled? But I guess that means everyone needs a vat number which would not work for me.

 

Thanks for your help.

There are 4 "identification numbers" in PrestaShop:

 

address:

vat_number

dni

 

customer:

siret

ape

 

You can use all in your addresses. In PS 1.6.1.*, only new orders (invoices) are affected after changing the address format.
