Field ID used for storing EU VAT is _billing_eu_vat_number. To retrieve saved EU VAT number from WooCommerce order in PHP, use this snippet:
if ( '' != ( $billing_eu_vat_number = get_post_meta( $order->get_id(), '_billing_eu_vat_number', true ) ) ) {
echo esc_html( $billing_eu_vat_number );
}
To retrieve saved EU VAT number from WooCommerce customer meta in PHP, use the snippet below. Note that there is no underscore in field ID (differently from order meta):
if ( '' != ( $billing_eu_vat_number = get_user_meta( get_current_user_id(), 'billing_eu_vat_number', true ) ) ) {
echo esc_html( $billing_eu_vat_number );
}
