Calculate stock trading fees instantly. Get a clear breakdown of commissions, stamp duty, and transfer fees for your trades.
Input-rate arithmetic for mainland China A shares. Initial sale stamp duty follows the reduction effective 2023-08-28. Check trade-date rules and broker statements for commission and transfer fees; not actual settlement costs. Reference
Transfer fees are charged on the transaction amount for both buying and selling on the Shanghai and Shenzhen exchanges.
Stamp duty is only charged on sell transactions, currently at 0.5‰ (0.05%).
Transfer fees are charged bidirectionally on the transaction amount, approximately 0.01‰ (0.001%).
All rate inputs are ‰: 0.5 means 0.05%. Defaults are 0.5‰ seller stamp duty and 0.01‰ A-share transfer fees. Commission 0.25‰ and CNY 5 minimum are editable broker assumptions. Check your statement for bundled transfer fees to avoid double counting. Display rounds to two decimals and does not simulate per-fill settlement.
Overview
Understand what the tool solves, how it works, and the boundaries of its data.
This calculator estimates fees for mainland China A-share trades in CNY. Choose buy only, sell only, or a same-price buy-and-sell round trip, then enter the share price, number of shares, and fee assumptions. The result separates commission, seller stamp duty, and transfer fee for each side where applicable. It is not a U.S. stock or U.S. dollar calculator.
Trade value is price × shares. For each side, commission is the greater of trade value × the entered commission rate ÷ 1,000 or the entered minimum commission. Stamp duty is calculated only on the sell side. Transfer fee is calculated on each side using the rate you enter. All rate fields use per mille (‰): 0.5‰ is 0.05%, while 0.01‰ is 0.001%. The calculator displays money rounded to two decimal places.
At CNY 10 per share for 1,000 shares, each side has a CNY 10,000 trade value. With the default 0.25‰ commission rate and CNY 5 minimum, the raw commission is CNY 2.50, so the CNY 5 minimum applies. The default 0.5‰ seller stamp duty is CNY 5, and the 0.01‰ transfer fee is CNY 0.10 on each side. The same-price round trip therefore shows CNY 5.10 in buy-side fees and CNY 10.10 in sell-side fees, CNY 15.20 total. Buy cost is CNY 10,005.10; sell proceeds are CNY 9,989.90; the same-price net result is −CNY 15.20.
Guide
Follow the workflow and verify inputs and outputs with practical examples.
Select buy only, sell only, or round trip. Select Shanghai/Shenzhen or Beijing for the market option shown by the form.
Enter a CNY share price and whole-share quantity. Round-trip mode uses the same price for both legs; it has no separate buy and sell prices.
Review the per-mille rate fields and minimum commission. The defaults are editable calculation assumptions, not a lookup of your brokerage account’s contract.
Read the side-by-side fee breakdown. In round-trip mode, compare actual buy cost, sell proceeds, net profit or loss at the entered same price, and the estimated breakeven price.
For example, type 0.5 in the stamp-duty field to mean 0.5‰ (0.05%), not 0.5%. Typing 0.05 would mean 0.05‰, or 0.005%.
Use cases
See how the tool fits into real work and everyday tasks.
Use buy-only or sell-only to isolate that side’s modeled commission, stamp duty when selling, and transfer fee. Compare the labels and amounts with the fee lines in the applicable broker statement.
Change the commission rate or minimum to see how a different account agreement changes the estimate. Keep the rate unit at ‰ and use the same CNY trade value when comparing scenarios.
For a classroom or planning example, use the round-trip result to show how charges affect a buy and later sale at one shared price. It isolates fee arithmetic and does not model a price gain or loss.
Q&A
Find concise answers to common questions and confusing cases.
The calculator applies the entered minimum whenever trade value multiplied by the commission rate is below that minimum. With CNY 10,000 at 0.25‰, the raw amount is CNY 2.50; a CNY 5 minimum makes the modeled commission CNY 5.
No. It uses one price for both legs. Its net profit or loss is therefore a same-price fee illustration; it cannot estimate gains from a different future sale price.
Your brokerage agreement, market schedule, fee bundling, trade allocation, and settlement rounding can differ from the assumptions and two-decimal display here. Compare like-for-like fee categories before drawing a conclusion.
Notes
Review scope, result limitations, and important precautions before use.
This is a calculator for mainland China A-share fee estimates in CNY. The three rate fields and minimum commission are editable assumptions. The listed defaults should not be read as a quote for your account or as a universal fee schedule for every exchange, security type, or broker. The cited transfer-fee schedule supports the Shanghai market; check the applicable current schedule for the market and instrument you actually trade.
The model includes only commission, seller stamp duty, and transfer fee. It has no separate field for other possible charges, so check your broker’s fee agreement and statement to avoid omissions or double counting. Do not apply A-share defaults to U.S. shares, ETFs, bonds, Hong Kong securities, or other instruments without checking their rules. This estimate is not investment advice or a broker settlement statement.
