-- HikaShop version -- : 5.1.0

When selling to a US customer we now have to pre-pay the tariff.

Is there a way to define an item price Per country?

Would the price calculations plug-in be needed to create some kind of rule\calculation to arrive at the "price" that would be applicable for a US customer?

Hi,

It's not possible to have formulas or conditions based on the address information with the price calculations plugin, at least not at the moment.

However, since HikaShop 5.1.2, product prices can be restricted based on the zone. And thus, you can configure different prices for different countries in each product. So, you could update HikaShop to use that.

Another possibility is to create discounts with negative amounts / percentages. Discounts can be restricted on the zone and on the products / categories too, so they will act as a fee.
The advantage with this is that you can configure fees for whole categories. For example, if you know that all products of category X require Y% of taxes for the USA, then you could just create one discount for the whole category. This would also allow you to not update HikaShop if that's a problem on your website for some reason.
The downside is that you cant configure real discounts on the products anymore ( or you have to restrict the real discounts for other countries ) because you can only have one discount applied to a product at a time and the real discount would take precedence over the fee discount.
