"Let's say 30 percent of the yearly turnover. That means around 10 books a day. This is not good news. It’s an additional tax that we cannot recoup. We are losing three percent. You can say, well that’s not huge, but actually, for a bookstore, it’s quite a lot."

"We made the decision that for Rakuten merchants, clients, we will not pass on the three percent tax in 2019, since we are waiting for more clarification from the French government on the how to enforce this new tax first. And second we don’t want to penalize our merchants during the shopping season, which is for them the crucial moments of the year."

"For the French Market we reckon it would be around several millions of Euros, so additional tax. And we think that it will have a negative impact again, since companies like us will ultimately be forced to reduce their investments in building new businesses and growing the French economy."

Amazon.com will raise fees for its French Marketplace partners by three percent starting October 1, which is a reaction to the so-called GAFA-tax in France, a new levy of the same amount, on tech giants like Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon.
In a country where about one in every five articles sold online, is sold by Amazon or its marketplace. The move is raising alarm among small and medium enterprises.
Romain Boyer runs a small, independent bookstore just north of Paris. He has a wide collection of educational and literature books. Amazon’s decision will have direct consequences for his business, because the marketplace is a vital part of his turnover.
"Let's say 30 percent of the yearly turnover. That means around 10 books a day. This is not good news. It’s an additional tax that we cannot recoup. We are losing three percent. You can say, well that’s not huge, but actually, for a bookstore, it’s quite a lot," said Boyer.
Amazon claims the tax is aimed squarely at the marketplace services they provide to businesses, so they had no choice but to pass it down to selling partners, according to its statement.
Amazon's step is not being followed by its competitors, like Rakuten, the third largest e-commerce platform in France.
"We made the decision that for Rakuten merchants, clients, we will not pass on the three percent tax in 2019, since we are waiting for more clarification from the French governmenr on the how to enforce this new tax first. And second we don’t want to penalize our merchants during the shopping season, which is for them the crucial moments of the year," said Fabien Versavau, CEO Rakuten France.
Yet this client friendly gesture comes at a steep price for Rakuten.
"For the French Market we reckon it would be around several millions of Euros, so additional tax. And we think that it will have a negative impact again, since companies like us will ultimately be forced to reduce their investments in building new businesses and growing the French economy," said Versavau.
As Amazon is so dominant in the French market, Boyer doesn't have many options but to keep using Amazon to sell dozens of books each month to his clients.
"That's for sure. Thirty percent of my business. Without that, I would have to close shop," said Boyer.
