Could you elaborate a bit more? I didn't follow the part "As the customer does not enter the tax_id" and "the tax_id.value that the customer submit"

Hi

#

The customer does not enter the tax id type

#

ie: EU_VAT or smth like that

#

basically just a valid VAT number that can take manny different forms, DE123456789, SE123456789123 etc: https://stripe.com/docs/billing/customer/tax-ids#supported-tax-id

Yes okie. And could you ask your question again? Which functionality you wish to be available?

patent coyote Jan 26, 2023, 8:06 AM

#

Given only the tax id value / number. Can we get the type?

#

The prebuilt checkout seems to have this functionality 🙂

Ahh, sorry don't really know but I think it's just a mapping function. You can utilize the List All Tax ID API probably: https://stripe.com/docs/api/customer_tax_ids/list

Actually, it might not work as good. Tried buying from sweden entering "123456789123" which according to your docs is of type "au_arn" and it resolved to RU INN? Can it be both?

#

Ah sorry that's per Customer

patent coyote Jan 26, 2023, 8:11 AM

#

Determined by?

tulip bramble Jan 26, 2023, 8:11 AM

#

Sorry I don't think we provide an API for determining the type

#

It is implemented internally by Checkout

patent coyote Jan 26, 2023, 8:16 AM

#

I understand

#

I'll get in contact with your support department and do a feature request because the checkout seems to be able to resolve to the wrong type as well

#

thanks for the help
