Hi there,

I added a State field to my additional area as a required field. It’s not showing up in the checkout, however, when I try to submit payment, it says that I need to fill in state.

I’ve had the same issue – doesn’t appear to check any logic to see if the state is required in certain countries.

I’ve developed this hook which appears to do the job if you’re interested – goes in your functions.php file:

add_filter( 'woocommerce_checkout_fields' , function($fields) {
    $WC = WC();
    $WC_Countries = new WC_Countries();
    $states = $WC_Countries->get_states($WC->customer->get_country());
    if($states !== false && !count($states)) {
        $fields['billing']['billing_state']['required'] = false;
    }
    $states = $WC_Countries->get_states($WC->customer->get_shipping_country());
    if($states !== false && !count($states)) {
        $fields['shipping']['shipping_state']['required'] = false;
    }
    return $fields;
});

Hope this helps
