Hello, how can i remove Zip Code frome checkout?
Topic summary
A merchant asks how to remove the Zip/Postal Code field from Shopify checkout.
Key constraint: Checkout fields are locked unless on Shopify Plus. Non‑Plus stores cannot remove or alter required fields (Billing Address, Country, Postal Code) because they’re needed for credit card verification. Shopify support and Experts can’t customize this area.
Workarounds suggested:
- Add guidance on the cart page (edit cart.liquid) advising customers—especially in countries without postal codes—to enter a generic code.
- Change the wording of the “Zip Code” label via Settings > Checkout > Manage checkout language > Checkout system. This only renames the label; it does not remove the field or its requirement. Multiple screenshots were provided to illustrate these steps (images are central to following this guidance).
Outcome/Status: No method to remove the Zip/Postal Code field unless on Shopify Plus. Practical options are adding cart-page instructions or relabeling the field via language settings. The original goal (removal) remains unattainable for non‑Plus stores.
Hey @Soumixpro ,
Great question!
When it comes to the checkout page in your Shopify store it is, unfortunately, unable to be adjusted unless you are on the Plus plan. The coding to that area is locked so you won’t be able to adjust it, our team won’t be able to make customizations for you and neither will the Shopify Experts. All aspects of the page (Billing Address, Country, Postal Code) would need to be filled in in order to verify the credit card.
Is there a reason why you would like the zip code section removed? I can understand if it’s because some countries do not use postal codes.
What I recommend is that you make a note on your cart to tell your customers to use a generic postal code if they don’t actually know or have one of their own. To do this you would need to edit the code for your cart page. By going to your Store Admin and clicking Online Store > Theme > Edit Theme Code > cart.liquid you could add some text for your customers.
If you don’t feel comfortable doing this you can reach out to a Shopify Expert who I am sure would be happy to get this done for you.
