Remove My billing and shipping address are the same in Magento2

Question

Can we remove the checkbox and label called "My billing and shipping address are the same" during checkout in Magento2?

I don't want to allow customers to enter billing address there. All I need is to hide the checkbox with the label, can it be done? Please anyone help me.

Answer 1

Overwrite:

vendor/magento/module-checkout/view/frontend/web/template/billing-address.html

in your custom theme:

app/design/frontend/<customTheme>/<customTheme>/Magento_Checkout/web/template/billing-address.html

And remove:

<div class="billing-address-same-as-shipping-block field choice" data-bind="visible: canUseShippingAddress()">
    <input type="checkbox" name="billing-address-same-as-shipping"
           data-bind="checked: isAddressSameAsShipping, click: useShippingAddress, attr: {id: 'billing-address-same-as-shipping-' + getCode($parent)}"/>
    <label data-bind="attr: {for: 'billing-address-same-as-shipping-' + getCode($parent)}"><span
            data-bind="i18n: 'My billing and shipping address are the same'"></span></label>
</div>

So the overwritten file should be like this:

<div class="checkout-billing-address">

<!-- ko template: 'Magento_Checkout/billing-address/details' --><!-- /ko -->
<fieldset class="fieldset" data-bind="visible: !isAddressDetailsVisible()">
    <!-- ko template: 'Magento_Checkout/billing-address/list' --><!-- /ko -->
    <!-- ko template: 'Magento_Checkout/billing-address/form' --><!-- /ko -->
    <div class="actions-toolbar">
        <div class="primary">
            <button class="action action-update" type="button" data-bind="click: updateAddress">
                <span data-bind="i18n: 'Update'"></span>
            </button>
            <button class="action action-cancel" type="button" data-bind="click: cancelAddressEdit">
                <span data-bind="i18n: 'Cancel'"></span>
            </button>
        </div>
    </div>
</fieldset>

UPDATE:

In later versions of Magento, keeping line

<render args="detailsTemplate"/>

prior to

<fieldset class="fieldset" data-bind="visible: !isAddressDetailsVisible()">

is important to retain the functionality.
