How to sell on Daraz: seller account, fees and payouts

To sell on Daraz, get registered with FBR first, then open a free account on Daraz Seller Center and list your products. Daraz says there is no listing fee. It takes a commission on each order that depends on the category, and FBR withholds 1% of online-paid orders and 2% of cash-on-delivery orders before you get paid.

What do I need to open a Daraz seller account?

• FBR registration. Since 1 July 2025, online marketplaces and couriers may not serve sellers who are not registered with FBR. You need an NTN (National Tax Number): see how to get an NTN.
• KYC details. Seller Center asks for KYC documents: your CNIC, tax registration, business papers if you have a business, and bank account details.
• A bank account in your name, because Daraz pays order money straight into your account.

Being on the ATL (Active Taxpayer List) halves the tax withheld from every order. See how to become a filer.

How do I create a Daraz seller account, step by step?

What fees does Daraz charge sellers?

Daraz says there is no listing fee, and nothing on its public sell page mentions a monthly fee. Daraz takes a percentage commission from the payment for each order, and the rate depends on the category. It publishes the full list only inside Seller Center.

We couldn’t open that list ourselves. A 318-page Daraz commission list marked “effective from 1 June 2026” is posted by RetailEasePos, a third party. It shows these rates:

Many categories rose by 1 to 2 percentage points in that list. Treat it as a guide and confirm your exact sub-category in Seller Center.

What tax does Daraz deduct from my payments?

Two FBR rules apply to every Daraz order since the Finance Act 2025.

Income tax, section 153(2A). It is withheld before the money reaches you, at these rates (FBR rate card updated to 30 June 2026):

FBR treats this as a final tax on that e-commerce income.

Sales tax. FBR’s sales tax circular of 2 August 2025 says that when you sell on a marketplace and the buyer pays online, the marketplace’s bank withholds the tax. For cash on delivery, the courier withholds, and that can be Daraz itself if it delivers for you. For cottage industry and retailers other than tier-1, that withheld tax is the final sales tax. Everyone else adjusts it in their normal sales tax return (see what an STRN is).

Daraz also has to file monthly statements to FBR with what it paid each seller and the tax due.

When does Daraz pay sellers?

Daraz’s sell page says order payments go straight into your account, but it doesn’t give a schedule. In April 2021 Daraz announced it had cut its payment cycle from 14 days to 7 days across its South Asian markets. We couldn’t confirm the current cycle for Pakistan; your Seller Center finance section shows it.

Can I sell on Daraz without investment?

There is no listing fee, so opening the shop costs nothing. You still need stock or a supplier, and the commission and tax come out of each sale. Daraz also runs a separate affiliate program, linked from its sell page, for people who want to promote products without selling them.
