FBA Fees Breakdown
Amazon FBA fees consist of several components, including fulfillment fees, storage fees, and long-term storage fees. Understanding these fees is crucial for managing your inventory costs effectively.
FBA Fees Formula
Total FBA Fees = Fulfillment Fees + Storage Fees + Long-Term Storage Fees
Fulfillment Fees
Fulfillment fees are charged by Amazon for picking, packing, and shipping your inventory to customers. These fees vary based on the size and weight of your products.
Fulfillment fees are calculated based on the size tier of your product. The size tier is determined by the product's dimensions and weight.
| Size Tier | Dimensions (L × W × H) | Weight Limit | Fulfillment Fee |
|---|---|---|---|
| Small Standard-Size | ≤ 12 × 8.5 × 0.75 inches | ≤ 1 pound | $2.49 |
| Large Standard-Size | ≤ 18 × 14 × 8 inches | ≤ 20 pounds | $3.19 |
| Oversize | ≥ 18 × 14 × 8 inches | ≥ 20 pounds | $3.79 |
Storage Fees
Storage fees are charged by Amazon for the space your inventory occupies in their fulfillment centers. These fees are based on the size tier of your product and the number of units stored.
Storage Fees Formula
Storage Fees = (Size Tier Monthly Fee × Number of Units) × Number of Months
| Size Tier | Monthly Fee per Unit |
|---|---|
| Small Standard-Size | $0.60 |
| Large Standard-Size | $1.00 |
| Oversize | $1.50 |
Long-Term Storage Fees
Long-term storage fees are charged by Amazon for inventory that remains in their fulfillment centers for more than 365 days. These fees are higher than regular storage fees and are designed to encourage sellers to move inventory quickly.
Long-Term Storage Fees Formula
Long-Term Storage Fees = (Size Tier Long-Term Fee × Number of Units) × Number of Months
| Size Tier | Long-Term Fee per Unit |
|---|---|
| Small Standard-Size | $1.20 |
| Large Standard-Size | $2.00 |
| Oversize | $3.00 |
Example Calculation
Let's walk through an example to illustrate how the FBA Fees Calculator works. Suppose you have a product with the following specifications:
- Dimensions: 10 × 8 × 5 inches
- Weight: 0.5 pounds
- Size Tier: Small Standard-Size
- Quantity: 100 units
- Storage Duration: 6 months
Using the calculator, you would enter these values and click "Calculate." The calculator would then compute the following fees:
- Fulfillment Fees: $2.49 per unit × 100 units = $249.00
- Storage Fees: $0.60 per unit × 100 units × 6 months = $36.00
- Long-Term Storage Fees: $1.20 per unit × 100 units × 6 months = $72.00 (if applicable)
- Total FBA Fees: $249.00 + $36.00 + $72.00 = $357.00
This example demonstrates how the calculator helps you estimate the total cost of using Amazon's FBA service for your inventory.
