We have an XI for FC Cincinnati! Perhaps a different look tonight as Pavel Bucha, Sami Gidi and Obi Nwobodo start in the midfield. Evander available off the bench after his return cameo on Sunday, as is Matt Miazga after a 45 minute appearance with FCC2. #AllForCincy

@mccrawf7 @Shopify And when will the VAT number be available in the API for non-plus merchants? We need this to properly sync to our accounting software

Excited to share that @Shopify Tax now captures and validates EU and UK VAT numbers right in checkout, so merchants can sell B2B across Europe with less friction and apply reverse charge from their first interaction with a buyer! changelog.shopify.com/posts/vat-numb…

100% agree with Mani. I really like the framing from @bcherny on @lennysan podcast: “Before Gutenberg, < 1% of Europe was literate. Scribes did all the reading and writing. In 50 years after the printing press, more material was printed than in the 1,000 years before. When a scribe was interviewed about the press, he was actually excited because it freed him from tedious copying, so he could focus on the art.” Scribes want to read and write. Engineers want to think and code. This is a moment where a 10x engineer can become a 100x. lennysnewsletter.com/p/head-of-clau…

Millions of people are grappling with this set of emotions and logical inductions. The most revolutionary and powerful technology of our time is giving many an existential crisis.

@mccrawf7 @Shopify Realistically you can't deal with the downtime of the DK endpoint without causing friction 😆 because it's quite often so bad that even VIES itself gives up waiting for a response

@LucasRolff @Shopify I can’t get into the specifics of our architecture; however, we do monitor the performance by country and adjust timeouts accordingly.

@jakabosb @Shopify Yeah; we run into this issue in other countries as well. To date, we believe it’s important to keep a clean definition per field (VAT number vs [other]).

That makes sense, yes we do have some workarounds for this already. I was just hoping that those can be replaced with this new VAT field. The main concern is that since the merchant will need to maintain a separate field for local vat they won't really be able to use the built-in EU VAT field since having two VAT fields would be very confusing to customers

@RemcoE33 @patjakubik I’d love to look into this. Mind DMing me or shooting me an email at mike dot Crawford at Shopify dot com?

@patjakubik Same here, plus the calculation is incorrect. Shopify is known for shipping at 70%. But when it comes at critical core features this should be bullet proof

Hate to be this guy, but... I waited for this for years and I don't get how this got shipped. Can't access VAT Number via API, can't see it in email notification, can't see it on OSP... and it sees my local VAT Number (without country prefix) as invalid.

@jakabosb @Shopify Unfortunately not at this time. There’s likely ways to do this for plus merchants using checkout blocks that then store on order metafield. If you want to then bring to customer metafield, Shopify Flow could do it.

Does it support collecting local tax numbers as well? We're building an invoicing integration in the Hungarian market which is used by the majority of shops in hungary. In Hungary it is mandatory to collect the local VAT number from hungarian B2B orders - it would be super useful if this field could be used for that as well.

@yashkots2002 @vikpai @Shopify I’d argue a GMV number multiples higher, especially given we also offer filing. However, you’re right! Customization and choice is why Tax Platform exists. Our ecosystem is strong and merchants deserve to use the right service for their business.

I don't necessarily think Shopify tax is problematic (i.e. most merchants doing under 100k usd on Shopify every year are probably fine). I just find that numeral/avalara become necessary extensions for almost every brand I've worked with past a certain point to manage tax complexity. May have to do with multiple non Shopify channels too, for sure. Not a knock on Shopify Tax, just meant to show that there's always apps to built in categories where Shopify has a presence in + Shopify will continue to support your app as long as you are contributing net positively to GMV on the Shopify platform either directly or indirectly.

My answer to ‘what if @Shopify builds this’ They might. But they just won’t be as good. And merchants want the best.
Oisin@OisinO

@heberchaim Well they did build it just like everything else. The reality is the risk is the opportunity. Most big companies have some sort of inherit platform risk. Shopify it was Meta all their merchants go traffic from Meta. Meta it was Apple all their best customers used iphones, etc.

@vikpai @Shopify Shopify Bundles, Shopify Subscriptions, Shopify Tax, Shopify Messaging - great examples of things that apps continue to do better regardless of how far Shopify moves there. I think core commerce infra is a large enough problem to keep the most innovative people there busy...

@snmarandi Everything points to it being true. Israel's claims are being broadcast by many agencies now. Confirmed on Fox too. We're in a new era. Now comes the battle for democracy. Nothing is certain.

Having our kids in @LedesmaAcademy is a special experience. Manu meets kids where they are and grows them personally, athletically and as #soccer players. Kids looking for a Spring team in #Cincinnati would find it difficult to find a better home. #USYS #AllForCincy #BPYSL
