International Orders
Yes, if your country is supported in Shopify Markets, you’ll be able to place an international order. Shipping rates and duties are typically calculated at checkout so you see the full cost upfront.
For most countries, yes.
We use Shopify’s Managed Markets to automatically calculate duties, taxes, and shipping at checkout. This helps ensure that no extra fees are charged when your package is delivered.
Some countries do not support Shopify’s duty and tax estimator. If duties are not shown at checkout, it means they cannot be calculated, and you will be responsible for paying them upon delivery. Your local customs office will collect any required fees before releasing your package, so please review your country’s import rules before ordering.
If your country does not support prepaid duties, we recommend:
- Reviewing customs fees in your country before ordering
- Being prepared for additional charges at delivery
- Waiting until Shopify support becomes available for your region
