 * Hi,
 * I’m selling from within the eurozone.
 * I would prefer simply not ask UK clients for a VAT number, and treat them like
   customers of any other ‘third country’. (I’m selling digital goods) This way,
   I don’t have to get a UK VAT number and try to get the charged VAT returned through
   HMRC.
 * Just one question: How do I remove the ‘EU VAT Number’ field from the checkout
   page when United Kingdom is selected?

 * Yeah, I was wondering why you have to set the tax rate in two places on the same
   screen.

 * True. I’m only selling stuff at the standard rate (obviously), so the export 
   currently works fine.

 * Okay, I tried it. That seems to have an effect.
 * The export file now contains:
    `<VatRateType type="STANDARD">21.00</VatRateType
   >`
 * … but wouldn’t this change make all of them ‘Standard’ (also the ones that should
   be ‘Reduced’)? I could test it, but it’s a bit of a hassle.
 * BTW, on the New Submission screen, the purchases still have ‘Reduced’ as their
   VAT type (but that’s because they already happened earlier I suppose)
 * Ah, also. I didn’t check the export with new purchases (again, hassle, but I 
   could do it if you want).
 * I found something else. The local server, on which I tested, has `define('WP_DEBUG',
   true);`, and these warnings popped up:
 * In the Meta box, on the Edit Product screen:
    `Warning: Use of undefined constant
   VAT_GROUP_CLASS_REDUCED - assumed 'VAT_GROUP_CLASS_REDUCED' (this will throw 
   an Error in a future version of PHP) in …/wp-content/plugins/vat-moss/includes/
   meta-box.php on line 25`
 * On the New Submission screen, once for every item in the list:
    `Notice: WC_Order::
   get_item_meta is deprecated since version 3.0! Use wc_get_order_item_meta instead.
   in …/wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php on line 4435` (but that’s not in my `
   functions.php`, it isn’t that long)
 * And, most importantly, I discovered one more thing: I can’t change a product’s‘
   VAT MOSS Rate Type’ (the Meta box) to anything else than ‘Standard’ (the first
   in the list). When I change it to ‘Reduced’ and save, it keeps being ‘Standard’

 * Ah, I wondered what the EDD abbreviation was standing for 🙂
 * Yes, I’m using WooCommerce. And on the ‘Edit product’ screen you set this “VAT
   MOSS Rate Type” in this box on the right (what I thought was called a meta box).

 * Hi! Thanks for looking into this so swiftly!
 * > Can you see the meta key ‘_moss_rate_type’ in the postmeta table for the post_id
   > records associated with the EDD download definitions? Does it read ‘standard’?
 * I don’t have access to the DB on the server, but I downloaded the latest backup
   from VaultPress (Jetpack), and for all products it has something like this:
 * `INSERT INTO wp_postmeta('meta_id','post_id','meta_key','meta_value') VALUES (
   xxx,xxx,'_moss_rate_type','standard');`
 * … so that seems to be okay.
 * For what it’s worth: I’m using the ‘WooCommerce EU VAT Assistant’ plugin
    [https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-eu-vat-assistant/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/woocommerce-eu-vat-assistant/)
   for the other side of this equation.
 * What else… I’m exporting in the format for the Belgian MOSS,
    and I had this 
   warning for each of the countries in the upload:
 *     ```
       <ns2:IntervatWarning>
         <ns2:Code>MOSS_BAD_VATRATE</ns2:Code>
         <ns2:Description>moss.bad.vatRate</ns2:Description>
       </ns2:IntervatWarning>
       ```
   
 * … which probably has to do with that `type="REDUCED"` in the XML file.
 * (The upload was accepted, though. These were just warnings, no fatal errors.)
