VAT Sentinel
VAT Sentinel adds a VAT number field to WooCommerce checkout, validates it against the official VIES database, and applies the appropriate reverse charge for valid EU business customers. It records every check and continues to function when VIES is down by flagging orders for later verification. It works with the modern block checkout.
