How Setup Pricing Per-Country? 🤔

*EDIT - SOLUTION: If anyone is wondering why they don't have the toggle for "Domestic & Global Pricing" in their listing, the reason is that you only get that toggle if you select any country that is NOT the USA in the "Ship from country" field in your shipping profile. The country that you select as "Ship from country" is considered your domestic market, and you will get the option to set separate prices for that market specifically, and then you can set different prices for everywhere else.*

ORIGINAL POST:

I read here in the article titled "Should I Offer Free Shipping on Etsy" that apparently "Etsy allows you to set different prices for different countries". That's what it says there in the article.

But for the life of me I cannot figure out how this is done.

Can someone enlighten me?

I want to configure appropriate prices for different countries corresponding to the Print Shrimp pricing listed here https://app.printshrimp.com/pricing so that I can offer a good price while stile ensuring a reasonable level of profit is reached for each sale, as I assume we are all doing. But how?

I have setup a shipping profile where USA, UK and AUS have free shipping and everywhere else has a shipping cost of €10.00.

I entered some prices for the size variations of my one and only listing, the prices are the Print Shrimp Cost per size (as listed in the "World" table of that page I linked above) + some suggested profit margin that I read in some other Print Shrimp document, maybe it was in the pdf, in any case those are in my notes now that I refer too.

So to give an example, I see the A0 print size costs £15.99 - that's the Print Shrimp price, that's €18.95 to me cause I am in the eurozone and all my calculations are in Euros. I have noted a suggested profit amount of €21.72 for this size, so in that's a total of €40.71. Etsy shows a price of €50.48 when I visit the listing, that's about €10 more than what I entered as the price (€40.71) - more about that in a sec. In any case, so I want to charge more for the USA customers, like €57.28 (my price) to makeup for the higher USA printing cost.

So what I see on the front end of the listing, what the customer sees, is the 'Worldwide" price, but the cost for printing in the USA is way higher, and AUS also is higher, how do I show those customers the right price?

About that price that shows on my listing (€57.28) that is higher than what I entered (€40.71). It seems that Etsy is adding some hefty Tax to the price that I set, like 20% range in addition to what I entered as my selling price. Is that normal? Does that tax represent my local country or the buyers country tax rates? Is everyone paying the same of are we just going to be more expensive if based in a high tax jurisdiction?
