Coverage counts what each App Store listing names. Every feature, checked off app by app, is in Shoplist.
See every featureThe native checkout removes VAT only cross-border. We also exempt qualifying domestic B2B customers (tax-exclusive stores) — and only after a live VIES check confirms the number, saved as an auditor-ready trail so you're covered under EU reverse-charge rules.
Simplify the process of claiming tax-exempt status. This app adds a highly visible checkbox, with a small explanation, to the cart drawer and cart page. Because it is a checkbox, it will not disrupt other customers’ purchasing journey. The VAT number is automatically validated in the VIES system, and if the customer is eligible, the taxes will be removed from the checkout. New customers are flagged as unapproved.
