Frequently Asked Questions
Are these Amazon KDP print cost numbers official?
They're based on Amazon KDP's published print cost formulas as of the most recent rate revision, but Amazon updates rates periodically — always confirm your final price in KDP's own calculator before publishing.
Why is hardcover unavailable for some marketplaces?
Amazon KDP hardcover printing isn't offered on every marketplace yet (for example, Canada) — switch to paperback or a supported marketplace to see costs.
How is my royalty calculated?
KDP pays 60% of your list price minus the printing cost for paperbacks sold through Amazon's own store; this calculator subtracts printing cost from 60% of your list price automatically.
