Building Listings In Germany

HI there,

we are just looking to expand into Germany, we have the VAT applied for.

In the interim we want to see which products we can sell in Germany from the UK, as when we look currently it shows 44 products, which are mostly UK FBA products, but is missing quite a few FBA items that we do want to sell.

on some searches it says that you shouldn't Build Listings unless you are live and approved .

so, how can we check or update the German store in advance to see which products would be approved?

any guidance gratefully received,

Thanks

Hi @Seller_RqYbxwnZGzsPs, you can search for the listing as if you were creating an offer to see if it already exists. If you need to create the offer, just make sure that your offers meet the following requirements so that they can be connected and synchronised:

  • An ASIN must have an active offer in the source store.
  • A product must comply with all applicable laws, and not be prohibited in the target store.
  • A seller must be approved for restricted products or categories.

Note:

  • The easiest way to tell whether you have a Unified Account or linked accounts is to click the store switcher at the top of your selling account and see whether other stores appear.
  • If a product detail page with the same ASIN does not exist in the source and target stores, Amazon will attempt to translate and create the product detail page in the target stores. Amazon does not guarantee the creation of a product detail page.

See Build International Listings for full details and a link to tutorials.

Hi Taylor,

Thank you for your help.

We have multiple products in our UK store, and currently Amazon Germany (which is in holiday mode until we get our VAT registration come through) is showing just 44 products, when we have 717 sku's .

So wanted to check how we sync the 2 stores in readiness for the Germany store going live and stocks sent to FBA.

we really just want to see what products we will be able to list and send , so we can make decisions, as have a number of liquid items for example.

is there a way to sync the stores and then we could see what would be available ?

many thanks

Hello @Seller_RqYbxwnZGzsPs,

I would not recommend to list FBA products and send inventory before your DE VAT registration is ready and its validated in Seller Central.

Please have a look at this help page: Comply with German tax obligations (last updated in August 2025), as DE VAT issues could lead to the deactivation of your Amazon.de account. So it's best to get that sorted out before adding products or sending any stock to a German FC.

Best,

Emma
