function germany_company_name_field_validation( $valid, $address_entry, $address_type ) {
    // Bail if not a German address, do not validate company field in this case
    if ( 'DE' !== $address_entry['country'] ) {
        return $valid;
    }
    
    // Make address invalid for checkout, if missing company name
    if ( ! array_key_exists( 'company', $address_entry ) || empty( $address_entry['company'] ) ) {
        return false;
