Get Tax ID from Customers in Brazil and Chile

You must have your customers provide a Tax ID for orders shipping to Brazil and Chile. Passport numbers are NOT accepted as alternatives for Tax IDs.

If you haven’t implemented a dedicated field for Tax IDs on your Shopify or WooCommerce checkout page, we suggest asking customers to enter a VALID Tax ID in the "Address Line 2" field.

 

Adding a reminder on your website or checkout page is also recommended.

If you receive the customer’s Tax ID after the order is placed and need to update that information in HyperSKU, please modify the shipping address in 'Address 2' on your HyperSKU account’s order page

 

The Shopify Team has added additional fields to collect specific information (for example, tax ID) when checking out. Until you implement the field to your store, we suggest you apply above walkaround solution.
