Do you have any asins in your inventory on .de site - active or not ?

I have had the message too. I am starting to think they have just sent it to everyone.
I had a problem a while ago with similar message about registering for Swedish VAT. After spending hours and hours trying to get to the bottom of it, one of their many replies was that they probably sent it just to remind me how important compliance is.

We had a phone call from Amz DE about this. I tired to explain that we did not sell anything electrical. On DE we only sell mugs and cotton tote bags. Neither category requires WEEE compliance. They put me on hold for 10 minutes while they checked our listings and came back confirming that we didn’t sell any electrical items. I thought it was weird and initially thought it may be a scam call. It was a legitimate call.

It was a strange message. Mine said my international selling was suspended but it said if I did not take action they would remove the affected products from sale.
This does not make sense as there is no point removing suspected products from sale if they have suspended the account.
It is like saying we will use this sledge hammer to crack the nut and then we will carefully remove the small bits of crushed nut.
Have you actually checked that your international sales are suspended? I did not check before I clicked the box.

I had the same, very threatening message pop up. I’ve ignored this until now as I do not sell electrical goods. I will continue to ignore this, as the apparent outcome is suspension of affected listings.

There is a report you can run.
Seller Central, Reports, FBA Reports, EPR Category.
If you run this report it will tell you which items it thinks are a problem. They will have EEE in the EPR_CATEGORY column.
