Description
buyerRegistrationAddress
Buyer's contact information that includes the buyer's name, email, phone number, and address.
taxAddress
This container consists of address information that can be used by sellers for tax purpose.

Note: When using the eBay vault program, if an item is shipped to a vault, the tax address will be the vault address.
taxIdentifier
This container consists of taxpayer identification information for buyers from Italy, Spain, or Guatemala. It is currently only returned for orders occurring on the eBay Italy or eBay Spain marketplaces.

Note: Currently, the taxIdentifier container is only returned in getOrder and not in getOrders. So, if a seller wanted to view a buyer's tax information for a particular order returned in getOrders, that seller would need to use the orderId value for that particular order, and then run a getOrder call against that order ID.
username
The buyer's eBay user ID.
