On Cardano the minimum fee for a transaction is a × size + b, where size is the transaction's serialized size in bytes. On mainnet, a (the per-byte component, minFeeA / txFeePerByte) is 44 lovelace per byte and b (the fixed component, minFeeB / txFeeFixed) is 155,381 lovelace. Both are protocol parameters and can be changed through governance and parameter updates. Because the size is known before submission, the exact fee is knowable in advance.
