Hallo,

&nbsp;

Sitze nun schon einige Stunden an diesem Problem, aber kann es nicht aus dem Weg räumen.

Egal in welcher Art und Weise ich das country angeben, ich erhalte immer die Ausgabe:

**country: This value should not be blank.**

Übergebenes Array sieht so aus:

```
Array
(
    [customernumber] => 16
    [email] => mail@mail.de
    [password] => hasedpaswordhere
    [encoder] => bcrypt
    [active] => 1
    [paymentID] => 5
    [newsletter] => 1
    [accountmode] => 0
    [customergroup] => EK
    [language] => 1
    [country] => 2
    [subshopID] => 1
    [phone] => 0123456789
    [fax] => 
    [ustid] => 
    [shipping] => Array
        (
            [company] => 
            [department] => 
            [salutation] => ms
            [firstname] => john
            [lastname] => lastname
            [street] => Doe Street
            [zipcode] => 12345
            [city] => City
            [country] => 2
        )

    [firstname] => john
    [lastname] => lastname
    [salutation] => ms
    [billing] => Array
        (
            [company] => 
            [department] => 
            [salutation] => ms
            [firstname] => john
            [lastname] => lastname
            [street] => Doe Street
            [zipcode] => 12345
            [city] => City
            [country] => 2
        )

)

```

Country ist in shipping als auch in billing und noch einmal so angegebn.&nbsp;
