International fee
If your eBay registered address is in an eBay global country, eBay charges an International fee if either:
- The delivery address for the item (entered by the buyer during checkout) is outside your registered address country, or
- The buyer's registered address is outside your registered address country (regardless of the delivery address for the item)
The International fee is calculated on the total amount of the sale and is automatically deducted from your sales proceeds. The total amount of the sale is the item price, any handling charges, the shipping service the buyer selects, sales tax (or equivalent local consumer tax), and any other applicable fees.

Volume discount calculation and exclusions
Your registered address must be in Japan or within the Rest of APAC region in order to qualify for the discount.

Regulatory operating fee
As a global e-commerce platform connecting millions of buyers and sellers in more than 190 markets, we're committed to offering a trusted global marketplace in a complex regulatory environment that affects eBay and our sellers.
To address the rising costs associated with the increasing number and complexity of regulations, including consumer and environmental protection, as well as new taxation and customs measures, from 8 April 2024, we’re introducing a new regulatory operating fee that will apply to all sales from listings on the following sites: UK, Austria, Belgium, France, Italy, Ireland, Netherlands, Poland, Spain, and Switzerland.
This fee is calculated as a fixed percentage rate (0.35%) of the total amount of the sale (which includes the item price, postage, taxes and any other applicable fees), and is subject to Value Added Tax (VAT), where applicable.
FAQ
How is the regulatory operating fee calculated?
The fee is calculated as a fixed percentage rate of the total amount of the sale (which includes the item price, postage, taxes and any other applicable fees), and is subject to VAT.
Example - VAT inclusive
Total Sale Amount = £15 item price + £5 shipping = £20
Regulatory operating fee = 0.35% (fixed rate for UK)+ 0.07% (VAT) = 0.42% of £20 total sales = £0.08
Example - Without VAT
Total Sale Amount = £15 item price + £5 shipping = £20
Regulatory operating fee = 0.35% (fixed rate for UK) of £20 total sales = £0.07
What is the static percentage rate for the regulatory operating fee in each market?
The static percentage rate for the regulatory operating fee in each market is 0.35%.
How will the regulatory operating fee affect refunds and fee credits?
We’ll apply credits for regulatory operating fees on full refunds, partial refunds, and cancelled orders.
When will the regulatory operating fee show on my eBay invoice?
The fee will first appear on your May 2024 invoice.
Is there a cap on the regulatory operating fee?
Currently, there’s no cap on the regulatory operating fee.
Will the regulatory operating fee apply if I don't list directly on the mentioned sites, but a buyer in one of these countries purchases my items?
No, the regulatory operating fee will not be charged in this case.
Seller currency conversion charge
When you create listings or sell items on an international eBay site with a listing currency different to your payout currency, eBay may convert your funds to collect amounts owed by you to eBay, or to payout funds due to you.
For example, if your registered address is in Japan and you create a listing on eBay.de for which fees (such as insertion and/or optional listing upgrade fees) are due, eBay will convert your funds from USD to EUR using the transaction exchange rate applicable at the time of listing, in order to collect these fees. When the item sells on eBay.de, eBay will calculate your payout amount by converting the sales proceeds from EUR to USD using the transaction exchange rate applicable at the time of the sale.
If eBay converts your funds, the conversion will be completed at the transaction exchange rate we set for the relevant currency exchange. eBay's transaction exchange rate is composed of a base exchange rate plus a conversion charge. The conversion charge is a fixed percentage applied to the base exchange rate and retained by eBay. The base exchange rate reflects rates within the wholesale currency markets applicable to the currency pairing on the day of the conversion, or the prior business day. If exchange rates are set by law or regulation, the base exchange rate reflects the government reference rates.
See the table below for details of the seller currency conversion charge applied and retained by eBay:
| Seller registered address country or region | Seller currency conversion charge |
|---|---|
| Malaysia, Israel | 2.5% |
| Latin America* | 3.5% |
| All other eBay global countries | 3.0% |
If your registered address is not in an eBay global country, please refer to the fee page for your country/region of residence Fees pages on international sites for your seller currency conversion charge information.
Overseas territories
If your registered address is in any of the following overseas territories, then we treat you as if you are domiciled in the associated country for the purpose of calculating your fees.
For example, if your registered address is in Puerto Rico and you sell and ship an item to a buyer in the United States, then you will not be charged an International fee for that transaction.
Please refer to the table for information about which fees page applies to you.
| Overseas territory registered address | Associated country / applicable fee page |
|---|---|
| French Guiana French Polynesia Guadeloupe Martinique Mayotte New Caledonia Réunion Saint Pierre and Miquelon | France: Private / Business sellers |
| Anguilla Bermuda Cayman Islands Falkland Islands (Malvinas) Gibraltar Guernsey Jersey Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha Virgin Islands (British) | United Kingdom: Private / Business sellers |
| American Samoa Guam Puerto Rico Virgin Islands (U.S.) | United States: Sellers without / with an eBay Store |
