ACCOUNT SUSPENDED AGAIN AND AGAIN FOR THE SAME REASON
Hi everyone,
I need advice regarding my UK Amazon account suspension.
My account was first suspended on 21st May 2025 for VAT verification.
I submitted all the requested documents:
1 - Utility bill for business address (within 180 days).
2 - Last 3 VAT filings from HMRC with submission receipt references.
3- Bank statements showing VAT payments/refunds to HMRC.
After submitting everything, my account was reinstated on 4th June 2025.
However, on 25th August 2025, my account was suspended again for the same reason, and Amazon is asking me to provide the same documents again.
I am really shocked and frustrated — the same documents were already reviewed and accepted earlier. Constant suspensions like this are causing huge sales and inventory losses.
Has anyone else faced this repeated VAT suspension issue?
Did you have to keep resubmitting the same documents?
Is there a way to escalate this so that it doesn’t keep happening?
Any suggestions on how to deal with Seller Performance in such cases?
Appreciate any guidance or shared experiences.
Thanks,
Shivam

Your VAT number is registered to a different name than the business name you are using on Amazon.
