How the Etsy Fee Calculator Canada works

Canadian sellers deal with fees quoted partly in US dollars, a domestic processing rate, and sales tax that varies by province between GST alone and a combined HST. The currency conversion fee is the one most often missed.

Not financial advice. Marketplace fees change, and they vary by country, plan and seller status. Every rate here is an editable default, not a quoted price — check the platform's current fee schedule before you price a product against it. This is not tax or business advice.

Frequently asked questions

What are Etsy's fees for Canadian sellers?

$0.20 USD per listing, 6.5% transaction fee, and 3% plus CA$0.25 payment processing. If your shop lists in USD but you bank in CAD, a currency conversion fee of about 2.5% applies on top.

Does Etsy charge GST or HST on fees?

Etsy applies Canadian sales tax to seller fees based on your province. Registered sellers can generally claim input tax credits on those amounts — keep the monthly statements as documentation.

Should I list in CAD or USD?

Listing in the currency you bank in avoids the roughly 2.5% conversion fee. Listing in USD can improve visibility with US buyers, who are the largest group on Etsy. Run both through this calculator before deciding — the conversion fee is often larger than the uplift.

Do I charge GST/HST on my Etsy sales?

Only if you are registered, which is required above the small supplier threshold and optional below it. Etsy collects and remits tax on some transactions automatically depending on the buyer's location, so check what has already been handled before filing.
