You can create first a shipping zone via the menu System>Zones and add all the countries except USA and Canada as subzones of that shipping zone. Then, create a new manual shipping method for that zone with a percentage of 35. 3. Simply do not set a weight in your ebooks and set a weight for the other products and then turn off the option "force shipping regardless of weight" in the configuration.

To recap: The customer wants to add 35% of subtotal for books shipped outside the U.S. and Canada. I have shipping charge schedule set up and applied to all users with a country address of U.S. or Canada. Works great. I created another shipping method called "overseas shipping." I applied a surcharge of 35%. I created a zone called "overseas shipping." I configured it as "shipping zone." (not country) From the country list, I deleted U.S. and Canada; then saved. Back in the "overseas shipping" shipping method, I set my zone to "overseas shipping." This charge all non-U.S/Canadian customers another 35%. And darn it, everybody is being charged the extra 35%! Even me. I've checked the "overseas shipping" zone. Yes, it includes all countries outside the U.S. and Canada. Did I miss another step in doing all this? -JG Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzgzNDk4LWFkdmFuY2VkLXNoaXBwaW5nLW1ldGhvZHM/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")** - [![nicolas's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar63.png?1793428657)](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") - [ Away](/forum/user/63-nicolas) Less More - Posts: 86320 - Thank you received: 14276 - - 13 years 4 months ago [\#108702](#108702) by [nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile") Replied by *[nicolas](/forum/user/63-nicolas "View nicolas's Profile")* on topic *[Advanced shipping methods](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/83498-advanced-shipping-methods#108702 "Hi, The store is working great at educationlaw.org.

In that case, you will have to create one overseas shipping method per domestic shipping method and configure each the same expect for the zone restriction (of course!) and the percentage field where you can add the 35% fee for each overseas shipping method. - [ ![Bureau_2013-06-12_17_19_54.png](/forum/attachment/10615) ](/forum/attachment/10615 "...2_17_19_54.png") [ ](/forum/attachment/10615?download=1 "...2_17_19_54.png") - [ ![Bureau_2013-06-12_17_20_11.png](/forum/attachment/10616) ](/forum/attachment/10616 "...2_17_20_11.png") [ ](/forum/attachment/10616?download=1 "...2_17_20_11.png") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzgzNDk4LWFkdmFuY2VkLXNoaXBwaW5nLW1ldGhvZHM/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[jgribble](/forum/user/4695-jgribble "View jgribble's Profile")** - [![jgribble's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/core/svg/person.svg)](/forum/user/4695-jgribble "View jgribble's Profile") Topic Author - [ Offline](/forum/user/4695-jgribble) Less More - Posts: 317 - Thank you received: 20 - - 13 years 4 months ago [\#108946](#108946) by [jgribble](/forum/user/4695-jgribble "View jgribble's Profile") Replied by *[jgribble](/forum/user/4695-jgribble "View jgribble's Profile")* on topic *[Advanced shipping methods](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/83498-advanced-shipping-methods#108946 "Hi, The store is working great at educationlaw.org.

The client's shipping methods fee schedule is attached. Also attached is a screen shot of how I set up Hikashop to match. When I turn them on the Hikashop shipping methods, I believe the cart will automatically apply the right one at checkout based on subtotal. Correct? 2. I haven't figured out how to do the following: For purchases outside North America, the client wants to add a $35% surcharge to the cart subtotal. Is that possible to set up automatically? If not, what would be a reasonable manual solution, since these sales happen only rarely? Can this be done by zip code such that all overseas zip codes are charged an additional 35%? 3. The client also sells e-books, which I want to except from shipping charges. How? I see forum traffic indicating that I should be able to set the shipping price to zero in the product page. There is no place to do this in my version even though it's the latest version bought just a couple months ago.

Why would my U.S. address be charged overseas shipping when yours was not? Because of this strange variation, I disabled the overseas shipping method again.

Many thanks, -JG")* It does seem to be working, and I puzzled out how to achieve my goal relative to overseas shipping. Here's what I did. I created a new zone called "overseas shipping." I added all countries except U.S. and Canada. I duplicated the five domestic shipping methods which charge shipping by flat free based on five escalating subtotal ranges. I renamed each of these copies "overseas shipping" and toggled the zone to "overseas shipping." To each of the five new "overseas shipping" methods I added 35% in addition to the flat domestic fee for each subtotal range. Now, say, when someone outside North America makes a purchase of $91.75, two things happen: First, $9.65 is charged because that's the standard flat domestic shipping fee for purchase totals ranging from $50-$99.99. Second, an additional 35% of $91.75 is charged. Voila! I think. -JG The following user(s) said Thank You: [Mohamed Thelji](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji "View Mohamed Thelji's Profile") Please [Log in](/login?return=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuaGlrYXNob3AuY29tL2ZvcnVtLzItZ2VuZXJhbC10YWxrLWFib3V0LWhpa2FzaG9wLzgzNDk4LWFkdmFuY2VkLXNoaXBwaW5nLW1ldGhvZHM/dG1wbD1tYXJrZG93bg==) or [Create an account](/component/users/registration?Itemid=101) to join the conversation. - **[Mohamed Thelji](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji "View Mohamed Thelji's Profile")** - [![Mohamed Thelji's Avatar](https://www.hikashop.com/media/kunena/avatars/resized/size144/users/avatar6861.png)](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji "View Mohamed Thelji's Profile") - [ Offline](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji) Less More - Posts: 12953 - Thank you received: 1778 - - - 13 years 4 months ago [\#109130](#109130) by [Mohamed Thelji](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji "View Mohamed Thelji's Profile") Replied by *[Mohamed Thelji](/forum/user/6861-mohamed-thelji "View Mohamed Thelji's Profile")* on topic *[Advanced shipping methods](/forum/2-general-talk-about-hikashop/83498-advanced-shipping-methods#109130 "Hi, The store is working great at educationlaw.org.
