Each country can only be in one shipping zone.

But I think it's possible to get the pricing you need working, though you'd have to divide the countries up more carefully into zones.

For example, let's say you have two shipping methods:

Method A
zone 1 - UK
zone 2 - France, Germany, Spain
zone 3 - Poland, Russia, Turkey
zone 4 - USA, Canada, Mexico
zone 5 - Japan, Australia

Method B
zone 1 - UK, France, Germany
zone 2 - Spain, Turkey
zone 3 - Poland, Russia, USA, Canada, Mexico, Japan, Australia

We'd need to construct a new list of zones compatible with both:
zone 1 - UK
zone 2 - France, Germany
zone 3 - Spain
zone 4 - Turkey
zone 5 - Poland, Russia
zone 6 - USA, Canada, Mexico
zone 7 - Japan, Australia

You can use this more granular set of zones and make up any zone in Method A or B by one or more zones in our new list.

As an extreme example, you could set each country as its own shipping zone and then set the pricing individually per country for each shipping method. But that would become extremely cumbersome.

Hi.

I wonder if the following is possible.

To have 1 country in more than 1 shipping zone.

The reason for this is I am trying to offer the most cost effective methods of shipping - based on weight to my customers, therefore I utilise three different courier services, and use them based on weight to cost..

Unfortunately each courier has it's own list of shipping zones and countries in those zones, and I would therefore need a way to be able to have 1 country listed in more than one shipping zone.

Thanks
