Country Restrictions for WooCommerce – Addify

Selling globally is exciting—but sometimes, restrictions are necessary. Country Restrictions for WooCommerce by Addify makes it easy to control which countries can access or purchase specific products in your WooCommerce store. Whether due to shipping limitations, legal compliance, or strategic decisions, this plugin puts you in control of where and what you sell.

Built on WooCommerce’s product management system using PHP and jQuery, the plugin offers intuitive controls to include or exclude countries at a global or product-specific level. Admins can define availability rules based on billing or shipping countries, product categories, or tags. For example, you can restrict digital downloads to select countries while offering physical products worldwide.

The plugin includes custom error messaging to inform users why a product or checkout option isn’t available in their location. It integrates directly into product settings, with no need for manual coding or complex rule building. Rules can be applied globally, in bulk, or manually overridden per product.

From a technical standpoint, the plugin is lightweight and hooks into WooCommerce’s native cart validation and product display logic. It ensures that restricted products are hidden or disabled based on geolocation or user input. IP-based country detection is also supported when paired with a geolocation plugin or WooCommerce’s built-in MaxMind integration.

For multilingual and multicurrency stores, the plugin works well with translation plugins and currency switchers, ensuring a consistent experience across localized versions of your site. It also offers CSV import/export for bulk rule management, helpful for stores with large catalogs.

Country Restrictions for WooCommerce is an essential tool for any store needing regional control over product visibility. Whether you’re navigating export regulations or tailoring offerings for different markets, this plugin gives WooCommerce users the power to sell smarter and more strategically.
