How Do You Withdraw Walmart Marketplace Earnings to India in 2026?

1. Confirm your business type is allowed. Walmart's U.S. Marketplace does not accept non-profits or HUFs, and accepts sole proprietors only from India.
2. Gather your documents: a GSTIN registration certificate, proof of address, and a personal ID. Walmart's list for sole proprietors also includes an MSME certificate and a Shop and Establishment License, and companies add a certificate of incorporation or Articles of Association.
3. Arrange a U.S. return address, either your own or through Walmart Fulfillment Services (WFS), since Walmart requires one for returns.
4. Apply in Seller Center and complete business verification. If you have no U.S. tax ID, select no when asked and upload Indian business documents.
5. Complete the tax information step. Indian companies without an EIN use Form W-8BEN-E, and Indian sole proprietors use Form W-8BEN.
6. Within 30 days of business verification, open the Payment Info page as an admin user and select Set up next to Payoneer or PingPong.
7. Enter the text message verification code sent to your primary business contact, and make sure the legal name and tax ID match your provider and bank details.
8. Link an Indian bank account in the same legal name inside Payoneer or PingPong, then withdraw each payout in INR.

Walmart Marketplace does not publish full fees for its withdrawal methods, so INR amounts are not calculated. The methods table above lists every fee it does publish.

Walmart Marketplace charges no setup or monthly fee and takes a referral fee on each sale, per its pricing page. Many categories pay 15 percent, and rates range from 3 to 20 percent by category and price. The fee applies to the total sales price, including shipping. For example, a $100 home decor sale carries a $15 referral fee.

Walmart Marketplace asks Indian sellers for a US tax classification during onboarding, per its tax classification guide. Indian companies without an EIN file Form W-8BEN-E, and Indian sole proprietors file Form W-8BEN. Walmart also asks for a GSTIN certificate. Walmart's guides do not describe any Indian TDS on payouts.

• W-8BEN-E: Walmart supports W-8BEN-E for sellers incorporated in India without an EIN, and says W-8BEN-E and W-8ECI documents must be renewed every three years, per its tax classification guide. The IRS says foreign entities use Form W-8BEN-E to document their status for US tax purposes. See W-8BEN-E for Indian companies.
• W-8BEN: Walmart supports Form W-8BEN only for sole proprietors from Mexico or India, per its tax classification guide. The IRS says a foreign individual gives Form W-8BEN when the payer asks. Walmart also says an Indian company with a US EIN is classified as W-8ECI. See W-8BEN for Indian freelancers.
• TDS: Walmart's payout and tax guides do not describe Indian TDS on Walmart payouts. Check your annual tax statement for any credit. The Income-tax Act, 2025 FAQs show TDS provisions moving to section 393 of the new Act from 1 April 2026. See TDS on marketplace payouts.
• GST on exports: Goods exported from India are zero-rated supplies under IGST Act section 16. A registered seller can export without paying IGST under a Letter of Undertaking in Form GST RFD-11 filed under CGST Rule 96A. See LUT filing.
• GST on fees: Walmart's referral and WFS fees are charged by a business outside India. Where an imported service is taxable in India, tax on categories notified under IGST Act section 5(3) is paid by the recipient on reverse charge. Place of supply rules decide this, and services performed on goods in the US may fall outside Indian GST, so confirm with your GST adviser.
• Income tax: Walmart sales income is taxed in India. The Income-tax Act, 2025 replaced the 1961 Act from 1 April 2026, and the presumptive schemes under old sections 44AD and 44ADA now sit in section 58. The old sections apply to income up to financial year 2025-26. See 44AD vs 44ADA.

• FIRA: Walmart pays your Payoneer or PingPong account, and the provider pays your Indian bank, so ask the provider and your bank for the inward remittance record. FIRA is a term used by banks and platforms and is not defined in the FEMA Export and Import Regulations, 2026. See FIRC vs FIRA vs e-BRC.
• Purpose code: Walmart sales are exports of goods. The RBI purpose code list describes P0104 as "Receipts against export of goods not covered by the GR/PP/SOFTEX/EC copy of shipping bill etc." Banks may apply a different export of goods code to payouts that arrive through Payoneer or PingPong, so ask your AD bank which code it uses. See purpose code for export of goods.
• EDF: Under Regulation 3 of the FEMA Export and Import Regulations, 2026, a goods exporter declares the full export value in an EDF at the time of export, and the EDF is deemed part of the shipping bill at EDI ports. These regulations replaced the earlier Master Direction from 1 October 2026 per A.P. (DIR Series) Circular No. 20. See EDF form for exports.
• Realisation: Regulation 5, as amended on 22 September 2026, sets nine months from shipment for goods, or nine months from the date of sale for goods exported to a warehouse outside India. Ask your AD bank whether it treats stock held in a WFS centre as warehouse exports. For shipping bills up to ₹10 lakh, the regulations let the AD bank close the EDPMS entry on your declaration. See EDPMS closure.

• Payout on hold: Sellers incorporated outside the US face a rolling payment delay of up to 21 days until 90 days have passed since the first shipped order and $7,500 has been paid, per Walmart's new seller payment hold policy. Keep shipping and delivery confirmations current, and wait for the next settlement cycle.
• Name mismatch: Walmart says the legal business name and tax ID in Seller Center must exactly match the bank account name and tax ID held by the payout provider, per its payout processing guide. Correct the record that differs, then raise a Seller Center Help case if payouts stay stuck.
• No payout method: You must set up a payout method within 30 days of business verification, or you must re-register and restart onboarding, per Walmart's payout processing guide. Choose Payoneer or PingPong on the Payment Info page as soon as verification is complete.
• Payment freeze: Walmart may freeze or reserve payments for compliance, performance, unusual transactions or legal issues such as a temporary restraining order, per its payment activities guide. Funds stay held until the review ends. Contact Support through the Help button in Seller Center to ask what is needed.
• Account closed: After an account is closed, Walmart pays the final balance only once returns, chargebacks and investigations are resolved, in most cases around 180 days after closure, per its final settlement payout policy. Keep your payout provider account open until that payment arrives.
