2For oversize size tiers, see the product size tiers for detailed definitions.
Shipping weight is determined by the unit weight or dimensional weight, depending on size tier and which is greater. Dimensional weight is equal to the unit volume (length x width x height) divided by 139. The dimensional weight for oversize items assumes a minimum width and height of 2 inches.
For core FBA and dangerous goods, Amazon will use dimensional weight when it is greater than unit weight for all large standard-size units and all small oversize, medium oversize, and large oversize units. Small standard-size units and special oversize units will use unit weight. This change will also apply to units fulfilled through Multi-Channel Fulfillment and Small and Light.
Core FBA and dangerous goods | |
---|---|
Size tier | Shipping weight* (If less than 1 lb, round up to nearest whole ounce. If 1 lb or over, round up to nearest whole pound.) |
Small standard size | Unit weight |
Large standard size | The greater of the unit weight or dimensional weight |
Oversize | The greater of the unit weight or dimensional weight |
Special oversize | Unit weight |
For apparel, for small standard-size units and large standard-size units weighing more than 0.75 lb and all small oversize, medium oversize, and large oversize units, Amazon uses dimensional weight when it is greater than the unit weight. Small standard-size units and large standard-size units 0.75 lb and under use unit weight.

*The unit weight is the weight of an individual unit.
The peak fulfillment fee will be in effect from October 15, 2022, to January 14, 2023.
FBA fulfillment fees are calculated and charged when shipments leave fulfillment centers. As a result, if a product is ordered before October 15, 2022, but is shipped on or after that date, the peak fulfillment fee will apply.
