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.
