Accepting credit cards, warehouses, and shipping and fulfilling orders
Hi,
Has there/is there a solution for purchasing shipping labels for customers with non Latin characters in their shipping address? For the most part this hasn't been an issue, or if it is I've been able to translate and make that work.
However occasionally (much like today), there's a certain address that doesn't have a translation, and I'm not entirely sure what to do because clearly it's not incorrect.
For example, we have a customer that lives in a region called Górnośląska, which has no translation and can't be substituted. I'm not going to ask the customer for a new address as what they gave me isn't incorrect
Ideas for this?
Hi salDmoto,
For handling non-Latin characters in addresses, Address Validify provides a simple solution:
Our app allows you to validate fields such as First Name, Last Name, Address Line 1 and 2, City, Zip Code, Phone, and more. You can customize validation rules, including:
Additionally, you can apply these validations at the cart level, block specific zip codes, and apply rules without needing a Shopify Plus plan. Address Validify integrates seamlessly without checkout.liquid file modifications—just install the app, configure your validation rules, and it will handle everything.
This should help prevent issues with shipping labels containing non-Latin characters, offering a streamlined solution.

This solution will lower the conversion rate since it requires the customer to write it in a different way than they might be used to.
My app can translate the address automatically: https://apps.shopify.com/address-logic-1
