Hello - can you tell me how to add a Retail Delivery Fee to any order placed in Colorado? Effective July 1, 2022, Colorado will impose a retail delivery fee on all deliveries by motor vehicle to a location in Colorado with at least one item of tangible personal property subject to state sales or us…

Hi @NinaAaron , We have rolled out the Retail Delivery Fee to all merchants collecting tax in Colorado. You can read more about the fee here . Thanks!

Thanks for this info. We’re hoping Shopify allows a separate fee line as well, it’s a little ridiculous that there is not optimization for a customized separate fee line already.

Suggesting a janky work around that doesn’t work in a lot of common situations? Exactly the kind of response I’ve come to expect from Shopify support. As was said above: someone will likely soon launch an expensive app that will do Shopify’s work for them.

I think our best hope is that Shopify sees this as a tax, which it seems like to me. From Shopify’s support: “Our tax team updates our tax tables on a monthly basis, so if this new tax rate would be something that is required to update on our end, then we would do the update.”

Does Bespoke Shipping allow you to add the RDF as a separate line item on your invoice/receipt? It seems that the requirement is that retailers show the total of the fees ($0.27) on the receipt or invoice as one item labeled “retail delivery fees”.

Good news! I just spoke with Shopify and they assured me they are adding this functionality for Colorado retailers. Not a lot of details but she said it would likely show up on the home page when logging in, and that it should be up and ready by July 1st. I highly recommend requesting a call back an…

I second the last comment. I’ve also been told Shopify are rolling this out natively but waiting on clarity on date. They will need to roll it out on time since all merchants need it. What we did as a temp solution (and this would be a Plus only solution) was use the ajax api to add the line item w…
