How to remove the ‘Tax/VAT Number’ line from Magento 2 check-out?

Magento 2.4.2-p1
Smartwave Porto
13 Amasty extensions

I have done a composer update and updated my Amasty extensions yesterday and ever since then, an extra line appeared in my checkout.

It is labeled:

Tax/VAT Number

We never had this before and we can not have that. I’ve googled this and checked Magento default settings in:

“Stores -> Configuration -> Customer Configuration -> Show VAT Number at Frontend”

and all setting having to do with VAT are set to “No”.

I’m not sure if this is in any way related to the Amasty One Step Checkout? (we have that extension disabled)

I’ve looked everywhere in Amasty’s extensions including:

Stores -> Configuration -> AMASTY EXTENSIONS -> ONE STEP CHECKOUT PRO -> ONE STEP CHECKOUT

but there doesn’t appear to be anything relevant there.

Is this part of the Magento core functionality? And if so, why did it just appear by itself after doing the updates (I didn’t update the version of Magento, just the composer and probably some or all of Amasty’s extensions).

How does one remove this line from the checkout?
