add_action('woocommerce_checkout_process', 'my_custom_checkout_field_process');
  
function my_custom_checkout_field_process() {
    global $woocommerce;
  
    // Check if set, if its not set add an error. This one is only requite for companies
    if ( ! (preg_match('/^[0-9]{6}$/D', $_POST['billing_postcode'] ))){
        wc_add_notice( "Incorrect Zip code! Please enter correct number."  ,'error' );
