Apparently not a joke.
A search on google re insurance required to sell on Amazon UK returns this:
You are required to have commercial liability insurance to sell on Amazon UK if your gross proceeds exceed £4,000 per month for three consecutive months. Under Amazon's policy, you must obtain public and product liability insurance with a minimum of £400,000 in cover and add Amazon as an "additional insured".
Key Requirements & Details:
Threshold: If sales exceed £4,000/month for 3 consecutive months, you must obtain insurance within 30 days.
Coverage Amount: Minimum £400,000 per occurrence and in aggregate for product liability.
Additional Insured: The policy must name "Amazon.com Services LLC and its affiliates and assignees".
Policy Type: Commercial general liability or Public and Product liability.
Proof: You must provide insurance certificates to Amazon upon request.

Is this for the UK as Amazon removed the need to have them mentioned on policies.
It is not normal on Amazon UK to have to provide them with your insurance polices unless a claim is made against you.
If it is USA which the email tends to indicate then it is necessary to have Amazon added to the policy. There are insurance companies who will do this for you.

Does this relate to a business on Amazon.com?
there have been other posts regarding liability and other insurances for sales in the USA.
Many sellers don't sell to the US (on amazon or other business channels) because of the high costs of insurance.

The point being though the insurance is mine, its is there to cover for any issues connected to my business whether thats through Amazon, Ebay, Directly, Not on the High Street.
Who do Amazon think they are to demand that they are mentioned on my Insurance - do you get Ebay asking for that?

does amazon 'resell' your stock in USA on amazon.com? that may be the way of them protecting themselves from claims. from what I know selling in USA is like rodeo in Texas with insurance claims and separate insurance policy is required to sell in USA, that was the reason I did not want to have anything to do with USA

Agree after we all paid to have them included they then said it was not necessary.
