How to Check for Low Inventory Surcharge Fees on Amazon 

Amazon sellers are finding it even harder to stay profitable these days because of increasing fees. In 2024, Amazon added Low Stock Inventory Fees along with Aged Inventory Surcharge Fees on top of the regular fees, making it even more challenging to maintain profitability. 

What are Low Inventory Surcharge Fees?  

Amazon’s Low Inventory Surcharge Fees are extra charges applied when your inventory levels fall below a set threshold. Amazon sets a recommended inventory level for each product, and if you fall short, you’ll incur these extra charges. The idea is to encourage sellers to keep enough stock on hand for smooth operations and fast delivery to customers. 

How are Low Inventory Level Fees Calculated?  

Low Inventory Surcharge Fees are calculated based on the product’s historical days of supply. The historical days of supply is calculated at the parent-product level. If a product’s historical days of supply falls below 28 days in both the short-term and long-term periods, the low-inventory-level fee is added to the FBA fulfillment fees.
