As we look ahead to the busy festive shopping season, we’re preparing for greater utilisation of our Fulfilment by Amazon (FBA) network, and increased fulfilment and transportation operating costs across the supply chain.
Similar to major carriers, we’ll introduce a holiday peak fulfilment fee to cover increased seasonal costs.
The holiday peak fulfilment fee will apply to selected FBA orders delivered to buyers in the United Kingdom between October 15, 2025, and January 14, 2026. The fee will apply to small and standard parcels, as well as large and extra-large envelopes, fulfilled via local FBA and Remote fulfilment from the EU to the UK. The average fee will be £0.10 per parcel item and £0.05 per large or extra-large envelope item.
The holiday peak fulfilment fee won’t apply to oversize or Low-Price FBA items.
Our selling partners are incredibly important to us and this is not a decision that we’ve made lightly. The entire industry experiences increased operational costs over the festive season, and this change enables us to maintain delivery speed, expand fulfilment capacity and support customer demand during this busy period.
The holiday peak fulfilment will also apply to selected FBA orders delivered to buyers in Germany. For more information, and to review detailed fee rates, go to 2025 holiday peak fulfilment fee.
Effective from October 1, 2025, you can also preview holiday peak fulfilment fees in the Revenue Calculator and the FBA fee preview report.
