- Short answer
- Rewrite it in Edit default theme content (default language only); in the code we read, no theme toggle hides the line.
- Where it shows
- Cart page and cart drawer; the product page has its own line.
- Theme updates
- Wording edits carry over when you update with Add to draft themes.
- Removing it
- Not with a theme toggle, in the code we read; removing it for sure means editing theme code.
Where do you change the cart line?
- In your Shopify admin, go to Online Store.
- Click ··· next to your theme and select Edit default theme content.
- Open Content › Checkout in Horizon or Sections › Cart in Dawn (under More views), where we found the cart line's fields on October 20, 2026, or search your cart's text with Filter items. Then type your own.
- Save your changes.

The editor changes your default language only. Updating the theme with Add to draft themes carries these edits over; if a Theme Store theme doesn't show that button, you install a fresh copy and reapply them by hand.
Why does your cart show a different version?
The cart page and cart drawer print the same line, but its wording follows your settings, so edit every version your store can show:
- Allow discounts in cart, on by default in Horizon, gives "Taxes and shipping calculated at checkout."; switched off, the Horizon 4.3.0 code we read adds "discounts".
- A shipping policy moves the line to separate fields, most of which link "shipping".
- Tax-inclusive prices switch Dawn 16.0.0, when prices exclude duties, to "Taxes included. Discounts and shipping calculated at checkout." and Horizon 4.3.0, in the code we read with Allow discounts in cart on, to "Duties and taxes included. Shipping is calculated at checkout." If you include or exclude tax based on the customer's country, the line follows the customer's country.
The product page's "Taxes included." note and shipping note are separate fields.
Can you remove the line completely?
Not with a theme toggle, in the code we read: Dawn 16.0.0 has none that hides it, and Horizon 4.3.0's Tax information toggle leaves the cart alone. Removing it for sure means editing theme code (the tax-info snippet in Horizon, the tax-note markup in Dawn's cart footer and drawer). Shopify's documented single-space trick covers other fields, such as Shipping policy html and Powered by Shopify.
If shipping isn't free on every order, rewrite the line instead of removing it; selling to EU consumers adds a disclosure rule.
