There is a&nbsp; **category** &nbsp;of product in our shop which cannot be shipped outside Germany. So when a customer outside of Germany orders any product of that&nbsp; **category** &nbsp;we want to prevent them from that order or give him a message in **/checkout/confirm** page&nbsp;

We want to get&nbsp; **categoryID** &nbsp;from&nbsp; **articleID** &nbsp;and check with the&nbsp; **shipping address** &nbsp;of the customer and validate it.

We get the articleID from the BasketItem in confirm.tpl

```
$sBasketItem.articleID

```

but the BasketItem doesn’t contain the category / categoryID of the products. Now how can we get the categoryIDs of the BasketItems (Shopping Cart)?

We are using Shopware 5.6.4
