IVA (VAT) on Etsy fees

Etsy's fees are a service bought from Etsy's Irish company. If Etsy has no valid VAT number for your shop, it adds Italy's 22% VAT to its fees. With a valid VAT number on file, Etsy does not charge VAT and you account for it under the reverse charge in your own return; a fully VAT-registered business can then deduct it, so the net cost is zero. If you are under a small-business scheme without input-tax deduction, VAT on Etsy fees is a real cost: on the €30.00 order above it adds about €0.85.

This page does not cover IVA (VAT) you charge buyers or registration thresholds. Check with your tax adviser or the national tax authority.

Calculate your own order

Use the Etsy fee calculator or profit calculator with your prices, and add the 0.8% regulatory fee under other fees. For the full fee list across countries, see Etsy fees explained.
