How Do I Change the Default Customer Location in WooCommerce?

Last updated on January 21, 2023 @ 12:23 pm

When you are setting up a WooCommerce store, you will need to set a default customer location. This is the location that your customers will be considered to be from when they are browsing your store. By default, WooCommerce will use the base country for your store as the default customer location. However, you may want to change this setting if most of your customers are from a different country.

If you want to change the default customer location in WooCommerce, you need to follow these steps:

  1. Go to the WooCommerce > Settings page. You can access this page by clicking on the WooCommerce link in the left-hand sidebar of your WordPress admin panel.
  2. Click on the General tab. This tab contains general settings for your WooCommerce store.
  3. Scroll down to the Default customer location section. In this section, you can select the country that you want to use as the default customer location for your store.
PRO TIP: If you change the default customer location in WooCommerce, it could affect your store’s tax settings. Be sure to consult with a tax expert before making any changes.
