Who it hits
UK, DE, FR, IT, ES, NL, SE, PL, IE, and BE FBA sellers. US operators who cloned their surcharge formula into Europe.
What to do this week
Multiply the EU fulfilment fee by 1.015, not 1.035. Rerun break-even per store.
Add 1.5% to the fulfilment fee, then rerun contribution. Do not add 1.5 points to your ACOS target and call it done. US parent: US 3.5% brief. Sheet: EU/UK SOP.
Confirm the surcharge line is still on your store’s rate card. Amazon can change it. Fee Preview beats this paragraph.
FAQ
Does 1.5% apply to Pan-EU and to local FBA?
The rate-card note says fulfilment fees in those stores. Whether a given Pan-EU or EFN shipment shows the line is a Fee Preview question. Pull one FNSKU in DE and one in the store you inbound to.
