What are the requirements for selling internationally?

When you sell internationally, you need to make sure that the item you're listing can legally be sold in other countries, as the applicable laws may be different to your own country.

To sell internationally on eBay, you need to:

  • Have an eBay account in good standing

  • Have at least 10 Feedback points from selling

  • Have had your first successful sale more than 90 days ago

  • Meet the selling and item requirements of the site(s) where you want your listings to appear

When selling internationally - either by listing on a site different from your site of registration or by selecting an international postage option - your item may be sold to a buyer on another eBay site.

Before allowing you to sell internationally, we may ask you to sign an International Selling Agreement acknowledging that items sold to buyers on other eBay sites are subject to the policies of those sites, including their eBay Buyer Protection policies.

In addition to the above:
  • Listing specifies international postage service and cost

  • PayPal offered as a payment method

  • Item listed in fixed price (Buy it now) format

In addition to the above:
  • Listing specifies international postage service and cost

  • PayPal offered as a payment method

  • Item listed in either the auction-style or fixed price (Buy it now) format

  • Category you selected is eligible for ISV

    For example, you can't select international site visibility for items that are sold in the digital download format, which is available within certain categories.

    On eBay Motors, only items listed in the Parts & Accessories category are eligible.

If your account or your listing isn't eligible for international site visibility, you won't see it as a choice when listing your item.
