About these tools in Canada
Canadian Etsy shops pay the same 6.5% transaction fee as US shops and 3% + $0.25 CAD for Etsy Payments, but Etsy also charges GST — or HST in harmonized provinces — on its seller fees. These pages work in Canadian dollars and show that tax as its own line.
Shipping inside Canada is often the largest cost for small sellers, and Etsy's fees apply to the shipping you charge. The profit calculator separates what the buyer pays for shipping from what Canada Post actually charges you.
Frequently asked questions
What are Etsy's fees in Canada?
A listing fee billed from US$0.20, 6.5% transaction fee on item plus shipping, 3% + $0.25 CAD payment processing, optional Offsite Ads, and GST/HST on Etsy's fees.
Which tax rate does Etsy charge on my fees?
5% GST in GST-only provinces and territories, or your province's HST rate (13–15%). The calculator uses 5%; HST-province sellers should expect a higher tax line.
Do I need a GST number to sell on Etsy?
Small suppliers with $30,000 or less in taxable sales over four quarters are not required to register, but registering lets you claim GST/HST paid on Etsy fees.
Why is the listing fee not a round number?
Etsy prices listings in US dollars and converts them on your bill. Enter the CAD amount on your statement; this site never converts.
