通过WooCommerce中的钩子有条件地改变产品税类

Question

I have implemented a b2b area into my WooCommerce Shop about 18 months ago. Recently I have updated all plugins and wordpress itself. Switching the tax class on variable products doesn't work anymore. The code below worked so far, but stopped working. What am I missing?

add_filter('woocommerce_product_get_price', 'switch_price', 99, 2);
add_filter('woocommerce_product_variation_get_price', 'switch_price', 99, 2);
function switch_price($price, $product){

    if(isset($_COOKIE["customerType"])){
      if($_COOKIE["customerType"] == "business"){
          $product->set_tax_class("Zero Rate");
      }
    }

    return $price;
}

To make it work, you will better target the WC_Product method get_tax_class() through dedicated related composite hooks, this way:

add_filter('woocommerce_product_get_tax_class', 'switch_product_tax_class', 100, 2 );
add_filter('woocommerce_product_variation_get_tax_class', 'switch_product_tax_class', 100, 2 );
function switch_product_tax_class( $tax_class, $product ){
    if( isset($_COOKIE["customerType"]) && $_COOKIE["customerType"] == 'business' ){
        return "Zero Rate";
    }
    return $tax_class;
}

Code goes in functions.php file of your active child theme (or active theme). Tested and works.

Based on WC_Customer is_vat_exempt property, you could also try to use the following instead:

add_action( 'template_redirect', 'vat_exempt_b2b_customers' );
function vat_exempt_b2b_customers() {
    if( isset($_COOKIE["customerType"]) && $_COOKIE["customerType"] === 'business' 
    && ! WC()->customer->is_vat_exempt() ){
        WC()->customer->set_is_vat_exempt( true );
    }
}

Code goes in functions.php file of your active child theme (or active theme).
