Application to Sell the Product - Why do I have to do it again?
Hi,
I have applied to sell food supplements on Amazon and have been accepted some time ago.
Since then I have invested in sponsored products, had some interest and sales.
Today I discovered that 3/4 of my listings are inactive - just like that, no email, no information, nothing.
I checked - the system shows I have to apply to be able to sell in this category.
I already went through verification process, I have been approved and made some sales.
Whi is this happening? Why some products of the same category have not been deactivated and some were?
Amazon is not accepting any applications for the category I am selling in.
I have tens of thousands of pounds stranded in an Amazon warehouse and no way to even edit the listings.
Somebody please help as agents are not only rude over the phone but also pretty useless via email.

Amazon can and do remove permissions for products even if you have gained permission previously.
If they are not accepting any applications for the category then there is probably nothing Seller Support can do. They can’t override that message for you.
Sometimes if you wait a few days or weeks you do get permissions to list again but this is not guaranteed.
Have you also checked that you meet all the requirements for supplements. Are your labels on your product compliant?
This is one of the reasons I replenish little and often into Amazon. There is always the possibility that your listings or account could become inactive.

Sadly Amazon reps/support do not believe that anything is their job it is always the job of someone else it is an endless loop leading to constant misinformation and contradicting information ie one dept saying you have been aproved and can list new products or fix existing products of that brand but when you try to do so another Amazon dept will block you saying you have not been approved so you go back to dept 1 for confirmation that you are approved and they confirm that you are and you try again only for dept 2 to again claim you are not approved it is a total mess.

Could it be anything to do with the brand? Could the brand have decided to stop people selling on Amazon?

This is what selling on Amazon is like in 2023, they will find any possible reason to pull your product down, yet the site is filled with fake/fraudulent items from chinese sellers.
