VAT Free Zones in the European Union
====================================

[](#vat-free-zones-in-the-european-union)

This is a simple class to check based on country/region ISO and the zip/postal code if a place in the EU is considered a tax free zone based on [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European\_Union\_value\_added\_tax](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Union_value_added_tax).

Install via Composer

```
{
    "require": {
        "koosh/vat-utility": "dev-master"
    }
}
```

Example usage

```
use koosh\VATUtility;

if (EUVATFreeZone::isEUTaxFreeZone('FI', 22100)) {
    // Is VAT free zone.
} else {
    // Is not VAT free zone.
}
```
