"WooCommerce Email Validation" is an extension for WooCommerce that adds a 'confirm email address' field to the checkout page as a required field. This will ensure that your customers will enter a correct email address, making managing your orders far easier and more reliable. If a customer's email address does not match up then they will receive a standard validation error on the checkout page informing them that they need to make sure that their email addresses are the same.

This extension is WooCommerce 3.x compatible and supports localisation using WPML. It has built-in translations for English, German, Spanish, Dutch, Swedish, Japanese, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Hungarian and Serbian.

How do I reorder the checkout fields?

This plugin adds the email confirmation to the checkout fields right after the existing 'Email Address' field. If you would like to rearrange the checkout fields, then you are able to do so very easily by using the snippet provided here. The label/ID of the email confirmation field is billing_email-2 (note that there is a hyphen before the 2 and not an underscore).

This plugin doesn't work with the Checkout Field Editor extension - what gives?

If you are using Checkout Field Editor then you need to manually specify the second email address field in that extension's settings in order for the field to be displayed. The field ID that you must specify is billing_email-2 (note that there is a hyphen before the 2 and not an underscore).
