Step 1: In the 'Shipping rate by country and order total' configuration section click on 'Configure' to configure shipping provider.

For more details see 'General Shipping Providers Settings'.

Step 2: Create new shipping method and configure general settings.

For more details see 'General Shipping Methods Settings'.

Step 3: Set the fixed shipping costs for the related shipping method based on the country, currency and order amount:

Shipping Rate by Country and Order Total

Step 3.1: Choose the country for which the shipping costs should be set.

Step 3.2: Determine whether the shipping method should be available or not available for the customers in the checkout process.

If the specific country is listed with the 'Not available' property, then the shipping method will not be visible to the customer of that country.

Step 3.3: Choose the currency for which the shipping costs should be set.

Step 3.4: Set 'Min order amount' and 'Max order amount' per country and currency. For all orders below the minimum order amount and above the maximum order amount the shipping costs will not be applied.

In case, when for the shipping costs list of the specific country the 'Available' property is set: If the country is not in the shipping costs list or it is in the list, but the order cost is out of the order amounts range, the default shipping cost is taken in this case; If there is no default shipping cost for this order amounts range then no shipping cost can be applied to this country; If there is no order amounts range for the country and no default than the shipping method will not be visible to the customer; If only one shipping method is available for the country, than it will not be visible to the customer on the second step of the checkout process. It will be applied automatically.

Step 3.5: Set the shipping costs including and excluding VAT per country and currency based on the order amount.

When a customer makes an order in the webshop the appropriate cost is retrieved depending on the customer's settings.

In case of SQL Provider, the customers have the property 'Prices including VAT' set to 'true' by default. Therefore, the cost including VAT is retrieved for the shipping cost.
