How can I tag orders based on country origin?

Topic summary

Goal: Automatically tag orders by country (e.g., if Billing Address country = Slovakia, add tag “SK - Orders”).

What was tried: Shopify Flow, but poster says they can only add customer tags, not order tags, for this use case.

Proposed solutions:

  • Shopify Scripts (requires Shopify Plus). Not applicable because the store is not on Plus.
  • Order Automator app: Can create rules to auto-tag orders by country. A screenshot illustrating the rule setup was shared.

Current decision/outcome: Original poster, despite preferring a native solution, will try the Order Automator app.

Latest activity: A new participant asked for help to set up automatic country-based order tagging and sought direct contact guidance.

Status: Open/ongoing. No native (built-in) method confirmed in the thread; third‑party app solution is the practical path identified. Key question unresolved: whether there’s a way to add order tags by country without Plus or external apps.

Hey,

We need to implement a simple logic for our multi market website. We need to tag each order based on what country it has come from, for example something like:

When “Order Created” and if “BillingAddress - country” contains/equals Slovakia then action = “add order tag”: SK - Orders

I tried to do that with flow, but the issue is that I can’t add order tags, but the only option is “add customer tag”.

Thank you

Hi,

Shopify Scripts can help. Are you using Shopify plus?

@Anzebukovsek if you’re not able to achieve it with flow there’s an easy solution with Order Automator app.

You just create rules and the app automatically tags the order. It has a bunch of other features but this one you mentioned is a common use for people. Here’s the rule you would create:

Unfortunately we do not have Shopify Plus.

This looks promising. I hoped to solve this quite simple issue without external apps but so far it’s the best solution so I will give it a go.

Thank you

Hi Alejo,

we also want to automatically tag orders based on the country. Do you have an easy solution how I could manage that? May you help me? I don’t know how to send you an internal message. I just signed up here at the community.
