When entering addresses, customers can select countries from a drop-down field. Countries are grouped into regions, and tax rates and delivery rates are based on regions. You can configure countries by clicking Settings in the shop admin panel menu and then clicking Countries to view the country list.

The country list

The country list initially shows all of the countries in the world. The drop-down field above the list lets you filter it to show only countries in a particular region. You can click on the column headers to sort by any column. A form at the bottom of the country list lets you activate and deactivate batches of countries.

Editing a country

To edit a country, click Details on the corresponding row in the country list. The country details form will be displayed, letting you change the following settings:

Name

The name of the country, as displayed to customers.

Status

Whether the country is active. Countries cannot be deleted as they may have been used in previous addresses, but by deactivating a country it is no longer available to use in new addresses. Note that leaving a country active does not mean you are guaranteeing to be able to deliver to it. If a customer selects a country for which you have not set up a delivery rate, they will be asked to contact you about delivery.
