legal entity for non-UK residents
I have received a performance notification indicating that I am required to change the legal entity. The main part of the message states:
You have incorrectly selected the individual legal entity during the registration of your Amazon selling account.
The individual legal entity option is currently only available to sellers based in the EU or the UK, selling on Amazon UK or Amazon EU stores.
I am currently registered as self-employed in an EU country. However, Amazon requires me to change legal entity, and their options don't include 'self-employed' or 'sole proprietor.' Instead, they have: 1) State-owned business, 2) Publicly-listed business, 3) Privately-owned business, 4) Charity, and 5) None, I am individual.
Which option should I choose if they said that Individual in not for me?

I received the same notification 4 days ago and the funny thing is that I have not even listed a product in any of the EU or UK marketplaces... I have had this account for a little over a year and until now when I decided to start this in my trial and error stage I was scared because I received this notification from Amazon. Indeed when I registered my account I did it as an individual and not as a business because I did not intend to do so until I saw that the business required it.
Amazon's message.
"Hello,
This is an urgent request for you to provide additional information about your account to complete the verification.
Failure to respond to this request as soon as possible may lead to your disbursements and listings being temporarily deactivated.
Why is this happening?
You have incorrectly selected the individual legal entity during the registration of your Amazon selling account.
What do I have to do?
To proceed with the verification, register your account with the correct legal entity.
What happens if I do not provide the required information or documents?
You have a total of 60 days from the day when we first contacted you to provide all of the requested documentation or information to complete the verification. The time that we take to review and validate this information will not be counted against the 60-day threshold that you are given.
Failure to provide this information before the 60 days will lead to your disbursements and listings being temporarily deactivated until verification has been completed.
If it has been more than 60 days since we first contacted you, your disbursements and listings may have already been deactivated and will remain deactivated until the requested information or documentation has been provided and your account has been verified.
