Elevated costs in fuel and logistics have increased the cost of operating across the industry. We have absorbed these increased costs so far. However, similar to other major carriers, when costs remain elevated, we implement temporary surcharges on our fulfillment fees to recover a portion of the actual cost increases we are experiencing.

Starting April 17, 2026, a 3.5% fuel and logistics-related surcharge will be applied to fulfillment fees across Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) in the US and Canada as well as to Remote Fulfillment with FBA from the US into Canada, Mexico, and Brazil. Starting May 2, 2026, this surcharge will take effect for Buy with Prime in the US and Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF) in the US and Canada. Due to the work we have already done together to lower costs, this surcharge is meaningfully lower than other major carriers.

The surcharge will be calculated on your fulfillment fees, not on the sale price of your items. On average, this equates to $0.17 per unit for US FBA, though this will vary based on your item's size and dimensions. The Revenue Calculator, Profit Analytics, and Fee and Economics Preview reports have been updated to reflect the surcharge and provide both the per-unit impact and the full business impact for your FBA products.

We know this impacts your business. The tools above are available to help you plan, and we will continue to evaluate this surcharge as conditions evolve.

Thank you for your ongoing partnership.
