Are you looking for a way to set up different WooCommerce shipping rates by country? In today’s tutorial, we are going to share a solution on how you can handle this. In the last post, we highlighted how to set up WooCommerce different prices for different countries. In this post, I show you how to set up WooCommerce different shipping for different countries.
Shipping plays a huge role in how customers view your brand. Therefore, you need to provide a high-quality shipping experience for customers. Luckily, WooCommerce allows you to add shipping rates for products in your store. It is worth mentioning that you can use shipping as a discounting strategy to reward loyal customers.
Many stores sell internationally, but the problem arises when it comes to handling shipping to different countries. For example. If your store is located in the UK and you want to set up the shipping fee for the US, Australia, and Vietnam as follows:
- For customers in the UK, the shipping cost would be flat $15
- For customers in the US, the shipping cost would be flat $20
- For customers in Australia, the shipping cost would be flat $15
- For customers in Vietnam, the shipping cost would be flat $11
Some plugins offer this functionality, but we will use WooCommerce built-in options. It is worth mentioning that you do not need any coding skills to achieve this.
Let us show you how you can set up your shipping method to achieve this kind of structure in your store.
