Thread: Fixed shipping rate to Canada

We want to have a fixed rate to Canada for ground shippments and rates for air that are different than US rates.

How can we setup the system to have a flat rate for Canada of say $30 ground?

What shipping calculation method are you using? If it's realtime rates, that's going to take some customization (you can't mix realtime and fixed rates). If you're using any of the fixed rate calculations, just go to Shipping->Shipping Methods and create a method called 'Canada Ground' (or whatever you want to call it) and use the 'Set Allowed States' and 'Set Allowed Countries' buttons to restrict that method to Canada only. You can then go to Shipping->Shipping Rates Table and set the $30 price.

Okay, that was easy, but I have one question.

Currently I have setup the "any order over $x.xx" amount is free freight. I don't want that to apply to those orders to Canada. Will it make those orders over $100 (the amount I have set for the free freight flag) free freight too?

If so, how to stop that?

If you've got a free shipping threshold set up, that applies to all shipping methods. It would take a little customization to exclude specific shipping method IDs from that. It wouldn't be that hard, but it would require source code.
