# Countries

The **Countries** section is where you manage which countries your store supports.\
Based on the active countries in the system, you can manage the local sites or taxes according to the specific location.

For best viewing purposes, you can sort the countries list by country name, country code, region, or status in the system. You can also use search field in all columns.

To enable or disable a country from your sales, go to **Settings** -> **Countries**, find the country of your choice and change its status to **Active** or **Inactive** depending on your need.
