The BBC reports British businesses will be charged a 1.29% fee for payments from the European Economic Area and vice versa.
Most currently pay about 0.5% in similar charges, which have remained unchanged since before the UK left the EU customs union and single market.
PayPal said it was now incurring extra costs, such as the rise in interchange fees between the UK and EEA.
