Tax Identifier element

Create a Tax Identifier collection element that will automatically collect and validate tax identifiers.

With DigitalRiver.js, you can create a Tax Identifier collection element that will automatically collect and validate the tax identifier formats for a specific transaction, which can be styled and placed on your page like other DigitalRiver.js elements.

Creating a Tax Identifier element

To create a Tax Identifier element, use the createElement function exposed through the Digital River object. This object follows the same pattern and allows for the same custom classes and styles as other elements.

The Tax Identifier element also requires an additional taxIdentifier object which accepts:

Attribute
Description
Required/Optional

sessionId

The Payment Session ID. If used, the response will automatically filter to be applicable to the specific transaction.

Required if country and sellingEntity are not provided.

country

The country code that represents the expected billing and/or shipping address of the customer.

Required if sessionId is not provided.

sellingEntity

The Digital River selling entity which is facilitating the transaction.

Optional if sessionId is not provided. If not provided, a default entity will be selected.

type

Either "individual" or "business"

Optional. If the type is provided, the rendered inputs will be limited to the specified type.

var options = {
	taxIdentifier: {
		country: "IT"
    },
    classes: {
        base: "DRElement",
        complete: "taxId-complete",
        empty: "taxId-empty",
        focus: "taxId-focus",
        invalid: "taxId-invalid"
    },
    style: {
        base: {
            color: "#495057",
            height: "35px",
            fontSize: "1rem",
            fontFamily: "apple-system,BlinkMacSystemFont,Segoe UI,Roboto,Helvetica Neue,Arial,sans-serif",
            ":hover": {
                color: "#ccc",
            }
        },
        complete: {
            ":hover": {
                color: "#495057",
            },
        },
         empty: {
            ":hover": {
                color: "#495057",
            },
        },
        focus: {
            ":hover": {
                color: "#495057",
            },
        },
            invalid: {
                color: "red"
        }
   }
};

let taxIdentifier = digtialriver.createElement("taxidentifier", options);
