Inventory, tax, shipping and customs

Bulk edit inventory tracking, selling when out of stock, tax, physical product flag, customs data, weight and unit price.

These variant fields change settings that live on each variant. All of them can be limited with Apply to variants, and all can be reverted.

Inventory tracked

Choose Track quantity or Don't track quantity. Turning tracking off lets a variant be sold without a stock count.

Continue selling when out of stock

Choose Continue selling when out of stock or Stop selling when out of stock. This is Shopify's inventory policy for the variant.

Charge tax

Choose Charge tax or Don't charge tax.

Is physical product

Choose Physical product (requires shipping) or Digital product (no shipping).

Country code of origin

Edit methods: Replace entire text or Set to null/blank. With Replace entire text, pick the country from the searchable list. The code is stored as a two-letter ISO code such as US, VN or CN and is used for customs and duties.

Province code of origin

Edit methods: Replace entire text or Set to null/blank. Pick the province or state from the list. This value is used when the country of origin is United States, Canada or Australia.

Harmonized System (HS) code

Uses the text edit methods plus Set to null/blank. Enter a numeric code of 6 to 13 digits, for example 610910. Values shorter than six digits or containing letters are rejected.

Weight

Edit method	Inputs
Set to fixed value (default)	Value
Decrease by percentage	Value (%)
Increase by percentage	Value (%)
Decrease by amount	Value
Increase by amount	Value
Change weight unit only	none, only the unit changes
Set to null/blank	clears the weight

The Weight unit list offers Don't change unit, g, kg, oz and lb. Rounding offers Round to nearest .01 and Round to nearest whole number.

Example. All variants weigh 250 g and you want them in kilograms: choose Set to fixed value 0.25 and Weight unit kg. To convert only the unit label without touching the number, use Change weight unit only.

Unit price

Sets the unit price measurement that some regions require (for example price per 100 g).

• Set unit price measurement: enter the Total measurement and its unit (how much the variant contains), and the Reference measurement and its unit (the base amount the unit price is shown for). Both units must belong to the same group: Weight (mg, g, kg), Volume (ml, cl, L, m³), Size (mm, cm, m), Area (m²) or Per item.

• Clear unit price: removes the measurement.

The reference measurement must be a whole number greater than zero.
