Dropshipping Profit Calculator: China to Europe (2026)
A dropshipping profit calculator tells you exactly what you will earn on each order before you spend a euro on ads. The right dropshipping profit calculator adds up your product cost, shipping, taxes, and fees, then shows your true delivered cost and margin. Here is how to calculate dropshipping profit from China in 2026 — and a free tool that does it for you.
The profit formula
Profit per order = selling price − delivered cost − ad cost
The part most sellers get wrong is the delivered cost. It is not just the factory price — it also includes shipping from China, customs, and VAT. Miss any of those and your “profit” is a mirage.
What goes into your delivered cost
- Product cost — the factory price per unit.
- Shipping — $15 standard (under 1 kg, 10–15 days), $25 express (3–5 days), or $9.50/kg for items over 4 kg.
- Customs and VAT — applied on import into Europe.
- Fulfillment — receiving, storage, and order-by-order dispatch.
Use the SourGlobal sourcing calculator
Instead of building a spreadsheet, use the SourGlobal sourcing calculator. You enter your product price in China (CNY, USD, or EUR), quantity, unit weight, and shipping type, and it returns your final delivered price per unit — all included. The delivered figure already accounts for shipping to Europe, customs, and VAT, plus quality inspection and warehouse receiving, so the number you see is the number you actually pay.
For example, a 300 g product priced at ¥5, ordered at 100 units on the standard rate, returns a delivered cost of roughly €3.84 per unit — product, shipping, and taxes combined. You then set your selling price above that and you know your margin instantly.
Know your margin before you scale
The SourGlobal calculator shows your all-in delivered cost per unit — shipping, customs, and VAT included. Model any product in seconds.
How to read your result
Once the dropshipping profit calculator gives your delivered cost, the rest is simple: subtract it and your average ad cost from your selling price. If the remainder is at least 25–40% of your price, you have a scalable product. If it is thin or negative, either raise your price, pick a lighter product to cut shipping, or move on.
Pair the calculator with a China warehouse
To hit the delivered costs the calculator shows, your stock needs to ship efficiently. With a SourGlobal China warehouse, your suppliers deliver to your China address, we inspect and store your goods, and each order ships one by one to your customer — keeping your real cost in line with the estimate.
