Etsy will charge regulatory operating fees in the following countries

Recently, Etsy also released announcements about various European countries. The announcement shows that due to the promulgation of new regulations, the new digital service tax promulgated in Europe earlier in 2020 has increased Etsy's operating costs in many European countries.

To make up for Etsy's increasing costs in these countries, starting July 1, Etsy will charge sellers in the UK, France, Italy, Spain and Turkey a regulatory operating fee, and sellers can see the specific fee details on their payment accounts.

According to Etsy, the new fee is based on the price displayed for each product plus the shipping costs charged, including gift wrapping and personalization services. It is worth noting that in some cases, VAT will be added to this regulatory operating fee.

It is reported that the regulatory operating fee charged for each order is not much . For example, a British seller sold a product worth 25 pounds, and the regulatory operating fee on his payment account was only 6 pence.

Etsy said it hopes to reduce operating costs by charging this fee, and Etsy will be able to continue to provide support to sellers. For more detailed information on regulatory operating fees, sellers can log in to their seller accounts to learn more.
