Amazon FBA fees in UAE 2026: every cost broken down in AED

Referral fees, fulfilment fees, storage, and the new seller incentives that offset them — with a worked example so you know your real margin before you order stock.

What's covered
1. Selling plan fees
2. Referral fees by category
3. FBA fulfilment fees
4. Monthly storage fees
5. Long-term storage fees
6. Inbound delivery cost
7. New seller incentives
8. Worked example

You find a product selling for AED 120 on Amazon.ae, calculate a rough 20% referral fee, and think you're fine. But referral fees are just the start — by the time you add fulfilment fees, storage, and inbound delivery, a product that looked profitable can lose money fast.

Here's every fee you'll actually pay selling FBA on Amazon UAE in 2026, in AED, with a worked example at the end.

1

Selling plan fees

Individual plan
Free
No monthly fee. Pay AED 0 until your first sale — good for testing a product before committing.
Professional plan
AED 184/month
Often waived for new sellers under Amazon's current incentive programme (see section 7).
2

Referral fees by category

A percentage of the total sale price, charged on every unit sold — whether fulfilled by Amazon or Easy Ship.

Category Referral fee Min fee
Electronics5%AED 1
Computers & accessories5.5%AED 1
Health & beauty8–15%AED 1
Baby products8%AED 1
Rates vary by sub-category — always confirm the exact rate for your ASIN in Seller Central before pricing.
3

FBA fulfilment fees

A per-unit fee covering pick, pack, shipping to the customer, and customer service — including Prime delivery at no extra charge. It's calculated from your product's size tier and weight, so smaller, lighter items cost less to fulfil. Run every SKU through Amazon's FBA Revenue Calculator in Seller Central before committing to a product.

4

Monthly & long-term storage fees

Standard monthly storage runs AED 2 per cubic foot. Stock sitting in an Amazon fulfilment centre for 365+ days triggers long-term storage fees at a much higher rate — this is where sellers who over-order lose margin quietly, month after month.

The fix: don't overstock Amazon's warehouse
Hold your bulk inventory in a UAE 3PL and send Amazon replenishment batches sized to what actually sells. This is exactly what ARRIVAGE's warehousing service is built for.
5

Inbound delivery cost

Getting stock from your supplier or warehouse into Amazon's UAE fulfilment centres (DXB3, DXB5, DXB6) is a real cost most fee calculators skip entirely — carton prep, labelling, and the actual delivery run. ARRIVAGE books directly with Amazon for these deliveries, so there's no Seller Central access needed on your side. See FBA & FBN delivery for how it works.

6

New seller incentives

Amazon periodically runs new-seller incentive programmes for the UAE marketplace — waived Professional plan fees for the first few months, referral fee credits, and discounted FBA fulfilment fees, historically worth up to AED 175,000 in potential value across a seller's first year. Terms change often, so confirm current eligibility in Seller Central rather than relying on last year's numbers.
