FBA manual processing fee

Note: You can see a preview of this fee in Seller Central during shipment creation if you choose not to provide box content information.

If you choose not to provide box content information, Amazon will manually process your boxes at the fulfilment centre and a fee will apply. Shipments that are manually processed may be received more slowly than shipments with box content information.

Note: Each box that you include in the shipment must have its own unique FBA box ID label printed from your shipping queue, even if you are not providing box content information. Failure to label your boxes with the required FBA box ID label may lead to the blocking of future shipments.

Fee rates

The FBA manual processing fee is CAD $0.11 per unit for shipments received at Amazon.ca fulfilment centres.

The fee will be charged 14 days after the first unit of your shipment is received at the fulfilment centre. You will be charged for the number of units received as of the date when the fee is charged. If your shipment contains units that are received after the FBA manual processing fee has already been charged on the shipment, you will be charged for these additional units at the next 14-day interval.

Choosing to apply the fee

When creating a shipment to Amazon, if you select the Skip box information and apply manual processing fee option in the Prepare shipment step of the shipment creation workflow, the fee will be applied to your shipment. You will be shown a preview of the estimated fee amount, and the fee will be charged after your shipment has been received at the fulfilment centre.

Important: Choosing the FBA manual processing fee option may cause delays in receiving your shipment. Shipments that are manually processed require more processing time than shipments with box content information. To learn more, see Provide box content information.
