Shopee Malaysia Fee Changes in 2026: Every Date That Matters
Shopee Malaysia Fee Changes in 2026: Every Date That Matters
If your pricing spreadsheet was built from a Shopee fee table you found last year, it is wrong — not because anyone told you, but because Shopee MY changed fees and fulfilment policy at least five times during 2026, and the last change moved the commission table on 14 August.
This page is the dated timeline. Every row carries its official source and the date Shopee published it, so you can verify each change yourself instead of trusting a blog post.
The 2026 timeline
| Date effective | Platform | What changed | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| 11 Feb 2026 | Shopee MY | LSR threshold revised from 10% to 15%; Days-to-Ship (DTS) policy revised; Fast Handover Rate cut-off time revised | Seller Education — Update to Shopee Shipping Policy and Operational Metrics (30-04-2026) |
| 15 Feb 2026 | TikTok Shop MY | Platform Support Fee introduced: RM0.50 excl. SST / RM0.54 incl. 8% SST per successfully delivered order — charged per order, not per item, and not refunded if the order is later returned | TikTok Shop MY — Platform Support Fee (22-04-2026) |
| 8 Apr 2026 | Shopee MY | NFR (Non-Fulfilment Rate) policy and Pre-Order metrics revised | Update to Shopee Shipping Policy and Operational Metrics (30-04-2026) |
| 20 Apr 2026 | Shopee MY | Pre-appeal for penalty points introduced: sellers can appeal up to 7 days before the punishment period starts | Calculating penalty points (20-04-2026) |
| 21 May 2026 | Shopee MY | Pre-order service fee of 2% (subject to 8% SST) on pre-order items, on completed orders only (some made-to-order categories exempt); more than 100 item categories begin enjoying waived or reduced commission | Shipping policy update (30-04-2026) + Fees for Local Shopee Sellers (31-07-2026) |
| 1 Aug 2026 | Shopee MY | New-seller commission threshold tightened: commission applies once the first product has been listed for more than 120 days OR the shop has more than 200 completed orders, whichever comes first; expanded Essential Goods list gets reduced or zero commission | Fees for Local Shopee Sellers (31-07-2026); Essential Goods Commission Fee (15-07-2026) |
| 14 Aug 2026 | Shopee MY | Marketplace commission table updated (the rates currently in force); adjustments to certain FMCG > Food & Beverages sub-categories; revised commission treatment for Virtual Goods SKUs | Marketplace Commission Fees (31-07-2026); Commission Fee for Food & Beverages SKUs (31-07-2026); Virtual Goods SKUs |
Context for the TikTok side: TikTok Shop MY revised its Marketplace and Mall commission fees from 13 September 2025, and offers lower rates to sellers in its Bonus Extra Programme (BXP).
Unconfirmed, and flagged as such: third-party seller tools have also reported a commission adjustment effective 1 February 2026. We could not match that to a Shopee page, so we have not put it in the table. If you are affected by a February change, confirm it in Seller Centre before acting on it.
Why these three changes matter most to a small seller
- The new-seller window is smaller than people think (1 Aug 2026). The "no commission yet" period is 120 days from first listing or 200 completed orders — whichever comes first — and the cap moved from 100 to 200 orders. Sellers who planned around "my first 100 orders are free" have been planning around an expired rule.
- Pre-orders now carry a fee (21 May 2026). A 2% pre-order service fee (plus 8% SST) on completed pre-order items changes the maths for made-to-order and dropship-style listings — and exceeding your pre-order limit now means delisting, starting with your lowest-volume SKUs.
- The 14 August 2026 table is the one to use. If you are comparing your own rate against anything older than that, you are comparing against a table Shopee has already replaced.
Check your own rate in about 60 seconds
- Seller Centre → My Income → My Tax Invoices — the commission actually charged on your completed orders, per order.
- Seller Centre → Account Health — your current LSR/NFR position and any penalty banner.
- Seller Centre → Order → My Orders → Completed — the population Shopee counts as "completed orders" (delivered and accepted by the buyer; cancelled and returned/refunded orders excluded).
Then compare what you were charged with the rate you think applies. In our experience the gap is usually a category sub-division or an SCP/non-SCP difference, not an arithmetic error.
The reference tables on this site
We keep the working tables here, each with the date we verified it against Shopee's own pages:
- Shopee MY commission rates by category — full 2026 table (rates effective 14 August 2026)
- Shopee Malaysia commission and seller fees explained — the fee layers and how they stack on one order
- TikTok Shop Malaysia fees — the TikTok side, including the platform support fee
- What a return really costs you — which fees come back
- Shopee penalty points and late shipment rules — the fulfilment rules behind the February and April changes
Re-run your own numbers rather than trusting a remembered rate: the free SEA Profit Calculator applies commission, the 3.78% transaction fee, the RM0.54 platform support fee, first-mile logistics and FX to any SKU, so a rate change turns into a per-order number you can price against.
Run the numbers on your own product. Six fee layers, live market price band, no sign-up.
