RKR Shipments to the Canary Islands, Ceuta and Melilla

/ The VAT is actually being removed, not just on screen

When the delivery address is in one of these territories, the module responds to the PrestaShop tax manager (hook) actionTaxManagerTherefore, products, shipping, and gift wrapping all show a 0% tax rate in the shopping cart, the order, each line item, and the invoice. Each line item includes a 0% tax rate labeled "VAT Exempt (Export)," so the order and invoice clearly indicate the applied rate.

/ You choose the treatment

Three modes, which you can change whenever you want in the Taxes tab:

/ Detect the destination by postal code

By default, codes that begin with 35 and 38 They are the Canary Islands, the 51 It is Ceuta and the 52 Melilla. You change the prefixes, use ranges (35000-35999) and add exceptions, one per line: 35010:IC to force a code on the Canary Islands, 35999:NONE to exclude it. The panel includes a postcode tester to see how any code is sorted.

/ The customer knows what will happen when they receive the package

When the customer's address falls within one of these territories, they'll see a notification in the shopping cart and order summary (and, if enabled, at the top of the entire store): that the purchase is VAT-free, what local tax they may have to pay upon delivery, the rate, an estimated amount, the delivery surcharge, and their postal code. The icon, rate, estimated amount, and surcharge are shown or hidden separately.

/ DUA dispatch surcharge, without touching anything by hand

If you charge the customer for customs clearance, the module automatically adds the surcharge to the cart. It does this using a hidden service product (reference RKR-DUA-FEE): It enters only once, with the price calculated for that cart, and disappears if the address is no longer within these territories. It works for all three treatments, as long as the cart remains within your limits.

/ Limits: treatment only where you want it

You can apply the special treatment to only some shopping carts. Outside of the limits, the cart is subject to normal VAT and no customs clearance fee.

/ The bill explains it.

The PDF invoice for exempt orders includes an exemption note. It automatically cites Article 21 of Law 37/1992 on VAT, the destination with its postal code, and states that import duties are the responsibility of the recipient. You can edit it by region and language, or turn it off with a switch.

/ Each order, noted for your manager

Each order to these territories is recorded with its taxable amount, the VAT not charged (calculated using your store's actual rates, not a fixed 21%), the local tax, and the customs clearance surcharge, in the default currency. The same tax summary appears on the order details in the back office.

/ Multistore, Spanish and English, and backup

It works with multiple stores: settings are saved for the selected store or group, and each store retains its own unique ad appearance. The dashboard and messages are available in both Spanish and English, and customer text can be edited by language.

The settings and text are exported to a JSON file and imported into another store. With the demo data (six months of fictitious orders that don't affect any real sales), you can view the statistics and reports before any actual sales occur, and remove them with a single button. The module includes a guide and a diagnostic tool that verifies, among other things, that this module is the first to respond to the tax authority.

/ What you should know

The export exemption requires an export customs declaration (DUA) for each shipment. The module applies the treatment you choose; it is not tax advice. Consult your advisor to determine the appropriate method for you before implementing it.

This module is designed for stores in mainland Spain and the Balearic Islands that ship to these territories. If another module also responds to the tax manager (actionTaxManager), this one must be listed first; the Summary tab checks for this. It only responds for these territories, so the other module continues to function for all other orders.

Uninstalling deletes the order record and the DUA surcharge product (the module asks for confirmation); the taxes it created are deactivated and existing orders continue to point to them.

Tested end-to-end (cart, order and invoice) on PrestaShop 1.7.8.11, , 8.2.8 and 9.0.0, and the update from the 1.1.0 in 9.0 and 9.2. If you come from the 1.1.0, Upload the ZIP file: the module adjusts its schema and removes tax rule groups from that version when no product uses them. License AFL-3.0.
