You need to add the relevant information for the countries that you intend to ship to. The country is specified according to the three-letter ISO country codes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-3). If delivery rates will vary according to County/States and Postcode/Zip, these sub-divisions can also be entered. The “Weight (and above)” and “Delivery Price” columns contain the table rates that will be applied. The unit of measurement in the weight column will be the same unit of measurement that is used elsewhere throughout the website. Often, this is kilograms. See the example below:
