2021 FBA fulfilment fee changes, reductions and promotions

This page provides details for the following FBA fulfilment fee changes, promotions and reductions for 2021:

• FBA fulfilment fee changes (effective June 8, 2021)
• Reduction or elimination of customer returns processing fee (effective March 1, 2021)
• Amazon Partnered Carrier programme promotional discount (effective April 1, 2021)

FBA fulfilment fees will be adjusted across local FBA, Pan-European FBA and the European Fulfilment Network to reflect changing supply chain costs. In addition to these adjustments, the following changes will also go into effect starting June 8, 2021, except where otherwise noted.

• Starting June 8, 2021, we will eliminate the packaging weight adjustment in our fulfilment fee rate card and adjust the weight limits for each size tier accordingly. This change applies to all Amazon Europe stores: United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Sweden and Poland and does not result in any change to the fulfilment fee charge of the shipped unit.
• We will align the size tiers of the FBA Small and Light programme with the standard FBA programme to ensure we continue to offer lower fulfilment fees on Small and Light selection versus standard FBA fulfilment fees on comparable products. The Small and Light programme is available in Amazon Europe stores in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy and Spain.
• We will decrease the per-unit surcharge from €0.50 to €0.35 for sellers who dispatch from fulfilment centres in Germany and do not participate in the fulfilment Network Expansion (Central Europe Programme). Similarly, for the Small and light programme, this per unit surcharge will also decrease from €0.30 to €0.25.
• Effective April 1, 2021, we have extended the limits of our fulfilment size tiers to account for fulfilment of heavy and bulky products, with associated fees for this service. Products greater than 31.5 kg or 175 cm in length can now be fulfilled in the United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy and Spain as part of the domestic FBA programme. In addition, sellers will pay a minimum referral fee of £15/€15 for each item sold via Heavy and bulky FBA, in addition to FBA fees. Refer to the Selling on Amazon fee schedule to view typical referral fees for all stores and product categories, which are calculated as a percentage of the total sales price.

Please see below the rates across countries and FBA programmes, starting June 8, 2021, except where otherwise noted. Local and Pan-European FBA fulfilment fees remain unchanged for Sweden and Poland.

¹Fulfilment fees are applied based on the marketplace where the item is sold. For the Pan-European FBA programme, we continue to charge a per-unit surcharge for fulfilment of oversize items.

²We may review EFN fees and make adjustments with a 30-day notice when the FX rate change between the British pound and the euro exceeds 5% on a monthly, quarterly or yearly basis.

What impact does the elimination of packaging weight have on the fulfilment fee?

This change simplifies the fulfilment fee calculation for your shipped units. You should not see any change to your fees due to the elimination of packaging weight. Prior to June 8, 2021, packaging weight is added to the unit weight to determine the final chargeable shipping weight of a product. Starting June 8, 2021, packaging weight will no longer be added to unit weight and the unit will be charged as per its own weight and dimensions only. The example below helps illustrate the change.

Starting April 1, 2021, you can benefit from an 80%* discount on standard Amazon partnered carrier fees for a limited time. The promotion applies to domestic shipments in the UK, France, Germany, Spain and Italy. With the Amazon Partnered Carrier programme, FBA sellers can send shipments to fulfilment centres across Europe at discounted rates. The promotional discount will apply automatically to any domestic shipment that you create between April 1, 2021, and September 30, 2021, and send to a fulfilment centre using an Amazon partnered carrier.

The following conditions will apply:

• The promotional benefit is available only to sellers who have not used an Amazon partnered carrier between January 1, 2021, and February 28, 2021.
• The shipment must be sent to a fulfilment centre in the same country as the ship-from address.
• The shipment must be created in Seller Central between April 1, 2021, and September 30, 2021.
• The shipment must use an Amazon partnered carrier.

For more information, visit Frequently asked questions.

*The discount is calculated based on standard Amazon Partnered Carrier programme rates in effect at the time the shipment is created. Your final cost may vary depending on the quantity, dimensions and weight of the boxes, and the rate applied. Rates are subject to change.
