[[File:Market.png|32px]]There are two separate taxes that are paid when items are sold on the market: Transaction tax and broker fee.

Sales tax is paid on market transactions. It becomes due once an item has been sold, and is paid by the seller. It is automatically deducted from the sale price before the ISK goes into the seller's wallet. It will be recorded in the player's wallet as "Transaction Tax". Sales tax is paid in addition to any brokers fees.

[[File:Contractitemexchange.png|32px]]Broker fee is the second tax that is paid on all market transactions. It is paid when the market sell or buy order is created with a duration longer than "immediate". The fee is not returned if the market order is taken down or expires.

In NPC stations, the broker fee starts at 3% and is reduced by the {{sk|Broker Relations}} skill and the standing towards the station owner's faction and corporation. The minimum fee at NPC stations with ~~{{sk|~~Broker Relations|V}} ''and'' maximum faction/corp standings is 1%.

Important to note is that the broker fee is based on unmodified standings and does not take any standing skills into account. In player-owned [[Upwell structures|Upwell structure]] markets, the broker fee is set by the structure owner. Skills have no impact on this fee, either. Different tax rates for different standings may be set.
