International buyer fees
If the buyer's delivery address is outside the UK, eBay adds an international fee on the total sale amount (item price, postage, and applicable taxes). It is charged on top of your normal business fees, or as the only platform fee for private domestic-style accounts.
| Seller type | Buyer location | Fee |
|---|
| Private | Any country outside the UK | 3% flat |
| Business | Eurozone & Northern Europe | 1.05% |
| Business | US & Canada | 1.8% |
| Business | Rest of world | 2% |
Business rates depend on where the buyer is having the item delivered. Use the buyer location dropdown in the calculator when International buyer is turned on. Private sellers always use the flat 3% rate.
