3. Select “Edit eBook Pricing.”
4. In the “KDP Select Enrollment” section, tell us if you want to enroll
your book in KDP Select.
5. In the “Territories” section, tell us if you have all rights necessary
to make your eBook available worldwide. If your book is your original content
and you’re publishing it for the first time, you most likely hold worldwide
rights.
- If you do, select All territories (worldwide rights)
- If you don’t, select Individual territories
6. In the “Royalty and Pricing” section, select a royalty plan and enter your list price. You have three options for setting your list price:
- Choose your primary marketplace and set your list price in the currency of that marketplace. We’ll automatically convert the price to our available currencies. If you choose this option, books with prices that match in one market may not always match in other markets. This is due to variations in taxes, delivery costs, and other operating costs.
- Enter a specific amount by marketplace and available currency.
- Use KDP Pricing Support (Beta). This optional service shows the impact of changes in KDP book prices on number of books sold and author earnings. Note: There are minimum and maximum list price requirements depending on marketplace, royalty plan, and file size. You can see the minimum and maximum prices under the “List Price” field. You can’t list your book for free, but it’s possible to run a free promotion later.
7. In the “Matchbook” section, tell us if you want to enroll in Kindle
Matchbook.

You can set list prices by marketplace as long as they’re higher than the minimum list price (based on Printing Cost / Royalty Rate) and lower than the maximum list price ($250 (US), €250 (EU) or Ұ30,000 (JP)). You can see the minimum and maximum list price under the “List Price” field.
Note: In the European Union, Value Added Tax (VAT) will be charged for books sold on Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.de, Amazon.fr, Amazon.es, and Amazon.it. The VAT rate applied depends on the purchasing customer’s country of residence. If VAT applies, Amazon will automatically add the applicable VAT rate to your selected list price, and will then display the retail price (including VAT) on your book’s detail page.
