Any way to require VAT identification number during registration?

[Dilton]

Hello,

prestashop 1.7.5.2

I have enabled b2b mode.
I also know about Locations -> Countries -> (country) -> "Do you need a tax identification number?" toggle
and I have turned it on for my country.

But.. during registration (Company and) Identification Number are still optional?

Makes sense since the country of the person registering is not yet known, but then

a) what is the above mentioned toggle good for and
b) is there a way to require (as in do not proceed without filling it in) the VAT Identification number during registration?

 

Thanks

Have you tried activating those fields as mandatory under Customers -> Addresses (scroll to the bottom + set mandatory fields)
