原文外掛簡介
AlaricForge EU VAT Lite is a free EU VAT foundation for WooCommerce.
It provides real standalone functionality:
Catalogue/readiness checks for all 27 EU Standard VAT rates.
Safe import of missing country-wide WooCommerce Standard VAT rates.
Merchant-controlled origin or destination VAT mode for cross-border EU B2C goods.
Customer type (Consumer / Business) checkout field.
EU VAT-number field for business customers.
Basic explainable VAT-decision snapshots on WooCommerce orders.
Optional European Commission VIES validation for business VAT numbers, plus an administrator VIES checker.
HPOS and Checkout Blocks compatibility declarations.
WordPress Privacy Policy Guide integration.
Important scope
Lite automatic tax application is deliberately scoped to common B2C goods scenarios and does not calculate the EUR 10,000 cross-border B2C threshold automatically. The merchant selects origin or destination VAT mode based on their actual VAT position.
Lite also does not provide a compliance ledger, threshold crossing locks, refund audit trails, OSS working reports, submission snapshots, drift detection, advanced anomaly diagnostics, or audit CSV exports. Those are separate AlaricForge Pro capabilities and no Pro code is locked inside Lite.
Lite does not automatically apply intra-EU B2B VAT exemptions. It can validate and identify business transactions, but B2B VAT treatment must be reviewed manually or handled with Pro.
Product eligibility for reduced, zero, exempt or special national VAT rates remains the merchant’s responsibility.
This plugin is a compliance-assistance tool and does not replace tax or legal advice.

European Commission VIES
VIES validation is optional and disabled by default.
If a store administrator enables VIES validation, EU VAT numbers supplied by business customers at checkout and EU VAT numbers manually submitted by administrators through the Lite VIES checker are sent to the European Commission VIES REST service for validation. This transmission occurs only while VIES validation is enabled. The service returns validity information and may return business-identification data supplied through VIES.

No AlaricForge account is required to use Lite, and Lite does not send usage analytics or telemetry to AlaricForge.
Upgrade to Pro
AlaricForge Pro is a separate commercial plugin for merchants that need deeper VAT compliance operations, including automatic threshold evidence, historical crossing locks, transaction-location evidence, compliance ledger/refund audits, OSS working reports, review workflows, immutable submitted-period snapshots, drift detection, advanced System Health and audit exports.
Lite remains fully functional without Pro.

Privacy
Lite may store a basic VAT-decision snapshot in WooCommerce order metadata. If VIES validation is enabled, VAT-number validation evidence may also be stored with the order.
Lite contributes suggested privacy-policy wording through WordPress Settings > Privacy > Policy Guide.
