Address validation on checkout (Denmark)

Hi,

Is it possible to configure validation on address added in checkout out of the box?

I saw the Avalara address validation provider, but its only for US :)

Hi Marie Louise

The address validation is provider based - so different providers can be setup.

https://doc.dynamicweb.com/documentation-9/ecommerce/other/address-validation

Currently we have these 3 providers

  1. Avalara
  2. Vertex
  3. Fedex

Avalara and Vertex are related to US sales tax (we use VAT in EU) - so they are based on that use-case.

Fedex does support validation in many countries - see their documentation here: https://developer.fedex.com/api/da-dk/catalog/address-validation/docs.html, but we have only tested it with US addresses - and I am not sure it will work with all fedex supported countries - see https://doc.dynamicweb.com/documentation-9/ecommerce/other/address-validation/fedex-address-validation-service​

You can create a seperate provider that works with DK addresses or the Fedex validation service.

If you want, you can get a copy of our validation services so you can use those.

A more simple approach might be to use the Google Places API directly in your frontend (I guess you are talking about the cart) - see https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/place-autocomplete
