Traceable formula
- Transaction fee = price x 6.5%.
- Payment processing fee = price x 4% + 0.20 GBP for United Kingdom bank accounts.
- Listing fee is modeled as a GBP estimate of Etsy's 0.20 USD listing fee converted to seller currency.
- Optional Offsite Ads estimate can use either the standard 15% attributed-order fee or the 12% high-volume shop rate.
- Optional VAT-inclusive estimate = gross selling price - gross selling price / (1 + VAT rate).
Official sources
Compliance note
UK Etsy sellers should validate VAT obligations, import paths, and whether inventory is held locally. Use the optional VAT-inclusive estimate only as planning math, not tax advice. Etsy lists 15% as the standard Offsite Ads attributed-order fee, with 12% applying after the $10,000 USD shop-sales threshold. Etsy also lists a 100 USD Offsite Ads fee cap; this GBP calculator does not convert that cap.
FAQ
Does this replace VAT filing advice?
No. It is a margin planning tool. The optional VAT-inclusive estimate only models a simple included-VAT amount and should be checked against HMRC rules.
