Country Based Restrictions for WooCommerce lets you control which products customers can see and buy based on their country. Using WooCommerce Geolocation (or the customer’s shipping country), you choose for each product whether to allow or block specific countries — ideal for region-locked products, licensing limits, and compliance requirements.

What you can do (Free)

  • Restrict any product to or from specific countries with a per-product include or exclude rule
  • Hide restricted products completely from the shop, search, and catalog
  • Hide restricted products from the shop and search but still allow access via a direct link
  • Keep restricted products visible in the shop and search but block them from being purchased
  • Automatically detect the customer’s country via WooCommerce Geolocation, with the shipping country used as a fallback
  • Translation ready

How it works

  1. Go to the plugin settings and set your default product visibility option.
  2. Edit any product, choose an include or exclude rule, and select the countries it applies to.
  3. On the storefront, the plugin reads the customer’s shipping country (or WooCommerce Geolocation when no shipping country is set) and applies your rule automatically.

You will need WooCommerce 3.0 or newer.

Upgrade to PRO

Country Based Restrictions PRO adds catalog-wide control plus payment and pricing restrictions:

  • Bulk restrict products by Category, Tag, Attribute, Shipping Class, or Global (all products)
  • Bulk restrict products via CSV import
  • Disable payment gateways for restricted countries
  • Hide product prices for restricted products
  • Country detection widget so customers can view and change their detected location
  • Restrict specific product variations
  • Remove single-product rules with a bulk action

Get Country Based Restrictions PRO »  |  Documentation

Can I make a product available only in specific countries?

Yes. Set an include rule on the product and select the countries where it should be available.

Can I block a product from being sold in specific countries?

Yes. Set an exclude rule on the product and select the countries where it should be restricted.

How is the customer’s country detected?

The plugin uses the customer’s shipping country if one is set. If not, it falls back to WooCommerce Geolocation. Make sure WooCommerce > Settings > General > Default customer location is set to “Geolocate”.

Restricted products still show in the blocked country. What should I check?

This is almost always caching. Page caching and CDNs can serve a cached page before geolocation runs. Exclude geolocation-dependent pages from your cache, or configure your caching plugin/CDN to pass geolocation correctly.

Does it work with page caching?

Caching can interfere with geolocation. Configure your caching plugin or CDN to exclude pages that rely on geolocation, or use an AJAX-based detection setup.

What’s the difference between Free and PRO?

Free covers per-product country restrictions (hide completely, show as unavailable, or block purchase). PRO adds bulk catalog restrictions by category/tag/attribute/shipping class, CSV import, payment gateway restrictions, hide product price, a country detection widget, and more.

Is it translation ready?

Yes, the plugin supports translation.
