flat rate shipping everywhere except Australia

Sorry if this has been answered before.

I am in Australia where I can provide free shipping. But overseas orders I would like to charge a flat rate.

How might I achieve this?

Enable the Free Shipping module for Australia only.

Then you could set up the Zones Shipping module to exclude Australia but set 00 (all other countries) to one zone and set the desired shipping rate for that single zone.

That should do it for you.

Thanks. But I seem to unable to get it right.

I am using this:

Zone Based Rates

Enable Zones Method
True

Calculation Method
Weight

Tax Class
--none--

Tax Basis
Shipping

Sort Order
0

Skip Countries, use a comma separated list of the two character ISO country codes
AU

Zone 1 Countries
00

Zone 1 Shipping Table
99:20.00

Zone 1 Handling Fee
0

Handling Per Order or Per Box Zone 1 (when by weight)
Order

Zone 2 Countries

Zone 2 Shipping Table

Zone 2 Handling Fee
0

Handling Per Order or Per Box Zone 2 (when by weight)
Order

Zone 3 Countries

Zone 3 Shipping Table

Zone 3 Handling Fee
0

Handling Per Order or Per Box Zone 3 (when by weight)
Order

and...

Enable Free Options Shipping
True

Shipping Cost
0.00

Handling Fee
0

Total >=
0.00

Total <=

Weight >=

Weight <=

Item Count >=

Item Count <=

Tax Class
--none--

Tax Basis
Shipping

Shipping Zone

  1. Australia

Sort Order

I must be thinking about it incorrectly.

Delivery is same business day only within metro areas of the same state within the Courier Post network and when it is lodged at an Australia Post retail outlet or arranged through Click and Send before 2pm.

Re: flat rate shipping everywhere except Australia

Hi. I have something similar where I give free shipping only in US when total >x.

you didn't say how it was behaving w your setup, only that it didn't work. Did you try switching sort order? Mine is in reverse. Also, you didn't show your zone def for Australia.
but try sort order. If that doesn't work please explain what it actually does.
