What It Does

WC - APG NIF/CIF/NIE Field adds a Spanish tax identification field (NIF, CIF, NIE) to WooCommerce billing and shipping forms, validates the format, and can verify the number against the EU VIES database and check EORI status. It captures this data on both checkout and customer account pages, and stores it on the order for invoicing or compliance purposes.

Who It's For

This plugin is a strong fit for WooCommerce stores that sell to Spanish consumers and businesses who must provide an NIF, CIF, or NIE for invoicing or tax reporting. It also suits EU-based merchants handling B2B orders who need VIES VAT validation and EORI number capture for cross-border shipments.

Who Should Skip It

If your store sells only outside Spain and never needs to validate Spanish tax IDs, or you already use a checkout field plugin that handles this, there is no reason to add another dependency.

The Bottom Line

WC - APG NIF/CIF/NIE Field delivers a focused solution for a specific Spanish tax compliance problem, with strong maintenance, good ratings, and useful VIES/EORI integration. It earns its 79.81 overall score honestly, though the small install base and thin support history mean it is a solid but not battle-tested choice. If Spanish tax fields are a real requirement for your store, it is a sensible pick; otherwise, you can safely skip it.

Pick this instead if your customers are in Portugal rather than Spain, since it is purpose-built for Portuguese NIF validation and carries a similar quality score.
