Manage VAT Exemptions at Checkout  – Cleanly and Compliantly
If your store sells products that qualify for VAT exemption for individuals with disabilities or eligible organizations, managing tax relief manually can create compliance risks and operational headaches.
Disability VAT Exemption for WooCommerce allows eligible customers to claim VAT exemption directly during checkout – while automatically applying your zero-rate tax and securely storing exemption details with the order.
No manual adjustments. 
No post-order refunds. 
No tax overrides.
Just a clean, reliable exemption workflow built specifically for WooCommerce.
