The Countries list holds every country available to your store and site. It feeds country dropdowns at checkout, address forms, tax rate configuration and shipping zones.
Managing countries
- Browse or search the full ISO country list
- Enable/disable countries - disabled countries are hidden from checkout and forms
- Edit a country to change its name or ISO codes if needed for your locale
Where countries are used
- Customer addresses and checkout country selection
- Tax rates - taxes are defined per region/country
- Shipping destinations and region groups (regions)
- Localization defaults in site settings
Countries come pre-populated; typically you only disable the ones you don't ship to.
