Orders – How to Add Company’s VAT Number to Customer’s Receipt Emails

email-templatesorderstaxtransactional-mail

I've done a bit of research into this, and checked various suggestions, but can't locate a simple way of inserting our company's VAT number into receipts for our customer's. We have our VAT number entered in System > Configuration > General > Store Information

And we have Enable Automatic Assignment to Customer Group in System > Customer > Customer Configuration set to Yes. But still we can't get it to appear anywhere.

We've also experimented with adding a new transactional email in with some code included at the end to try to manually add the VAT number in, we've tried:

{{var order.getData(’customer_taxvat’)}}

For example, and a few other slight variations, but NOTHING get's pulled in at all 🙁

Any ideas on how to solve this one?

I think you just need {{config path="general/store_information/merchant_vat_number"}} to display your own vat number.

--Edit

Here's the vat number I put in settings setting vat number

Here's my template in System/Transactional Emails template setting

And here's what I get when I press preview

I'd check your preview first to make sure that works, then check you you've changed the template you're using in System/Configuration/Sales Emails
