Proof of Affiliation between brand and Barcode Owner?
I was creating a listing of Brand N with my own UPC which I directly bought from GS1, but keep receiving error 8572. The Brand N was enrolled in Amazon Registry by another seller and I have been approved by them to use Brand N to list new products. Amazon asks me to provide Proof of Affiliation between brand N and Barcode Owner. I have tried the following ways:
1. Asked the trademark owner to write a letter stating that they authorize us to use our own UPC. - case ID 13990693911
2. Asked the seller to write a letter stating that they authorize us to use our own UPC - case ID 14040467541
Both received the same reply from Amazon:
"Proof of Affiliation is invalid since it shows no affiliation between the Brand and the GTIN Owner. Kindly provide a valid Proof of Affiliation between the Brand N & Barcode Owner “x Inc.”.
@Sandy_Amazon Would you please take a look at my cases? Who is the brand owner Amazon is asking for? What exactly document Amazon want?

Hey @Seller_ZM4L2XLMmuRO9, you may be better assisted in the Manage Your Brand category of the Forums, but I did find this thread where Sandy described a similar issue and its resolution.
