Set up a Retail Delivery Fee for Colorado Customers on the Shop App

As of July 1, 2022, the state of Colorado is requiring a retail delivery fee on all deliveries by motor vehicle to a location in Colorado with at least one item subject to state sales or use tax. 

To comply with this new regulation, you will need to have two different shipping providers: one shipping provider for all deliveries within Colorado, and another provider for the rest of the United States.

Below are the steps you will need to take: 

  1. Navigate to the Shipping dashboard by selecting Shipping and Pickup on the left-hand sidebar of your Shop App.
  2. Determine which shipping provider will be used for all Colorado deliveries and set up. How to choose the right shipping provider.
  3. Add a handling fee to this shipping option and change the name to "Retail Delivery Fee".
