Estimate using Daraz Pakistan's published fee structure, last verified October 2026: category commission on the sale price, 16% VAT on the commission, 1.25% payment fee, and 4.5% / 9% withholding tax for filers / non-filers. VAT varies slightly by province (15-16%). Daraz Mall, vouchers, and sponsored ads are not included. Confirm current rates in Daraz Seller Center before pricing.

How it works
Daraz's fee stack is one of the most confusing in ecommerce: a category commission between 1.7 and 17.2 percent, then 16 percent VAT charged on the commission itself, a 1.25 percent payment fee, and a withholding tax of 4.5 percent for filers or 9 percent for non-filers. Sellers who subtract only the commission routinely discover their margin was an illusion, especially non-filers losing nearly a tenth of revenue to withholding tax alone.
This calculator models the full stack for Daraz Pakistan. Pick your product category, electronics around 4 percent, fashion around 13 percent, footwear up to 17.2 percent, beauty around 12 percent, or enter a custom rate, then toggle your filer status to see the withholding tax difference. Every fee line is shown separately so you can see exactly where the money goes, followed by net profit and margin percentage.
The filer toggle deserves attention: becoming an active tax filer cuts withholding tax from 9 percent to 4.5 percent, which on a Rs 1,499 sale saves about Rs 67 per order. For sellers doing real volume, that single administrative step is worth more than most pricing tweaks. Daraz Mall sellers also get a small commission reduction on top.
Rates verified October 2026 against Daraz's published Pakistan fee schedule. VAT varies slightly by province (15 to 16 percent), and Daraz Mall rates, voucher contributions, sponsored ads and shipping are not included. Confirm current rates in Daraz Seller Center before finalizing prices, and re-check periodically: Daraz revised commissions and voucher rules during 2026.
