  • Logo. Add a logo so that your customers can easily choose between different carriers.
  • Transit time. This is displayed to customers during checkout. It will help them select their carrier according to the amount of time they have to wait until they receive their product.
  • URL. This field must be filled with the tracking URL provided by your carrier. For example, France's postal service (La Poste) offers this URL: http://www.colissimo.fr/portail_colissimo/suivreResultat.do?parcelnumber=@ . When customers select their carrier, they will be sent the URL that you enter into this field, which they can click on in order to track their delivery.
  • Zone. indicate Indicate the customer's zones in which the carrier is available (in short, the zones where the carrier can make deliveries).
  • Group Access. Select which groups have access to this carrier.
  • Status. Include or exclude this carrier in your shop's list of carriers.
  • Shipping & handling. Include the shipping & handling costs in the carrier's price
  • Tax. Indicate if this carrier requires a tax in order to deliver to a certain zone.
  • Shipping & Handling. Include or exclude shipping & handling costs in this carrier's price.
  • Out-of-range behavior. In case you have left out a range for an order, you can indicate how the software should react. You have two options:
    • If the software doesn't find the range it needs, it will take the largest configuration and apply these conditions.
    • Otherwise, it will not offer this carrier because it can't deliver this order.
  • Finally, save your newly-created carrier.

  • Enter the name of the country that you would like to add.
  • Enter its ISO-3166 code, which you can found on the official ISO page.
  • Enter its international call code, which you can found on this Wikipedia page.
  • Indicate its default currency. You can use your shop's default currency (as set in the Payments > Currencies sub-tab), or one of the other default currencies. Remember that if needed, you can add a new currency to your shop using that sub-tab.
  • Indicate its zone, the world subregion this country is attached to. If needed, you can add new zones using the Shipping > Zones sub-tab.
  • Indicate whether a user sign-up with the address must give a zip code or not.
    • You may also give more detail on the format of the postal code (or zip code). If you don't put anything, PrestaShop won't verify the validity of the zip code when given a new address for this country.
    • Use the following codes for the postal code: "L" for a letter, "N" for a number and "C" for the country's ISO code (the one which you entered in the ISO field above).
    • You can rely on this Wikipedia page if you do not know the postal code format. Pay attention NOT to copy/paste the notation from Wikipedia, but to adapt it! For instance, Wikipedia indicates "AAA 9999*" for Malta, so the notation for PrestaShop becomes "LLL NNNN".
  • Give details about the address layout. You can click on the various helper link links on the side of the text-field in order to add more fieldfields. In live usage, they are automatically replaced by PrestaShop with the data from the customer's account.
  • Enabled or disable it. A disabled country will not be proposed when your customers want to register and create an account.
  • Indicate if it does contain "states". This adds a new field to the PrestaShop address form. Note that "states" can be regions, provinces, departments... anything that makes sense to the country's postal service.
  • Indicate if the country needs a Tax Identification Number, and if its tax label should be displayed or not.
  • Save: you're done creating a country!
