Address Format
The Address Format field is a powerful feature that dictates the order and layout of address details on important documents and pages, including:
Storefront invoice pages.
The checkout address selection step.
The customer's address list within their account.
Shipping and payment addresses are displayed on invoices.
Each address component must be enclosed within curly brackets { }.
Example for US:
{firstname} {lastname}
{company}
{address_1}
{address_2}
{city}, {zone} {postcode}
{country}
Adding Custom Fields to the Address Format
If you use the Form Manager (Design → Form Manager) to add a new custom field to the customer registration or address forms (for example, a field named vat_id), you can incorporate this new field into any country's Address Format. By adding the custom field variable {vat_id} to the format, the data for that field will automatically be displayed wherever that address is shown across your store, provided the customer entered a value for it.
Example for EU :
{firstname} {lastname}
{company} {vat_id}
{address_1}
{address_2}
{postcode} {city}
{country}
