VTR Warning MADNESS - UK to EU under €20 Euros No Valid Tracking
Amazon doesn't know its own policies. Today, we and other sellers received VTR warning emails in France, Germany, Spain, and Italy.
The policy clearly states 'You must maintain a 95% VTR for the following seller-fulfilled shipments:
Cross-border shipments above €20: Shipments to and from the UK, Germany, Spain, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal, Poland, Austria, or Sweden that have an order value above €20 (including shipping charges, excluding VAT).
Today received warning emails for all categories for invalid tracking on orders below €20 Euros. It's madness with Seller Performance not understanding Amazon's own policies. We have raised this with seller support twice this year to get standard replies stating the policy above.
Why are Amazon not measuring cross-border VTR to their own policies on orders under €20?

The policy is full of contradictions and it appears Amazon do not have the information to be able to police their own policy properly.
For example as per the wording you have quoted it should only apply to items over 20 Euros but further down the policy under "exemptions" it states items under 20 Euros that are letter format are exempt. Why are they listing exemptions for things are not within the policy in the first place!
Really poorly written policy and it is looking like implementation and enforcement is going to be equally as bad.

received VTR warning emails in France, Germany, Spain, and Italy.
But not the UK? Are you sending all orders from the UK?

I looked into this and it appears as if the text differs based on the marketplace you're browsing the page on. E.g. Germany has the words 'of a 'letter' type' or something, in the stipulations for the cross-border shipments. I am trying that now after my VTR went down to 7%
