Urgent Appeal Regarding Wrongful Product Safety Violation (Case ID: 17775247551)

One of our products, which has been sold successfully on Amazon for nearly three years and does not fall under any prohibited items in your Product and Food Safety Policy, was unexpectedly deactivated on May 20, 2025, due to alleged "Product and Food Safety Violations."

We have submitted multiple appeals (Case ID: 17775247551), but the responses have been consistently automated, stating: "This product causes a safety risk. Therefore, it is prohibited from sale and listing on Amazon. At this time, we will not be reviewing any documents for this product."

This unjust suspension has caused significant financial losses and disrupted our sales operations for over two weeks. We firmly believe this is a misjudgment and kindly request:

A manual review by Amazon’s safety team to reevaluate the product.

Clear documentation of the specific safety risk cited.

Immediate reinstatement if no violation exists.

As a long-term seller, we prioritize compliance and are willing to provide any additional documentation. Please escalate this case to a specialist for fair resolution.

We appreciate your urgent attention to this matter.

Good Evening @Seller_sJuNEUrTXmz7G,

Thank you for reaching out to us on the Seller Forums. Apologies that you are going through this experience. It does not appear you are the only one as we have seen multiple sellers on the forums recently reach out about their ASINs recently removed for Product and Food Safety violations.

I have gone ahead and escalated the handful of cases you filed regarding ASIN ending 3SMP to see if we can learn more about its removal. The partner team should get back to us within the next few business days. I will follow up with you as soon as I hear back from them.

Sincerely, Cooper_Amazon

Good Afternoon @Seller_sJuNEUrTXmz7G,

We have heard back from our internal teams regarding your product containing lithium batteries and they have provided the following information:

"We appreciate your patience during our review process for your product.

We’ve re-reviewed the customer reported safety concerns and determined your product(s) may present a safety risk to Amazon customers. As a result of our review, your appeal is denied and this decision is final. We have removed your product(s) from Amazon, and this product(s) cannot be relisted. This affects all current listings and any FBA inventory.

Why is this happening?

Our review process involves analyzing customer complaints and reported safety incidents along with your selling history to make this decision. Following your appeal, we conducted a thorough re-review and were able to re-verify these concerns, leading us to conclude that your product continues to present a safety risk to our customers.

Our commitment to safety

At this point, there is no additional requirement from you to reverse this decision. We will reach out to you if this changes in the future. We understand this decision may be disappointing, and we don't make such determinations lightly. Amazon is committed to ensuring products sold on Amazon are safe for customers. This commitment sometimes means that even products with documentation adhering to safety standards may be subject to removal if customer safety risks are identified through customer reports or other means.

For more information about our policy, please visit the Requirements for lithium batteries and products powered by lithium batteries help page.

Required Actions

For FBA Inventory:

  • You have 30 days from the first notice you received on this issue to remove your impacted inventory from our fulfillment centers
  • Any inventory remaining after 30 days will be disposed of at your expense
  • Create a removal order through Seller Central using these resources: Remove Inventory & Fix Stranded Inventory

What happens to your impacted orders?

For all Orders and Listings:

  • All pending customer orders for this product(s) will be cancelled automatically
  • You will not be penalized for the first-time cancellation of these listings
  • Relisting this product(s) is prohibited

We appreciate your attention on this important matter.
