Signed up as Private seller, but want to change to Business
Hello,
I signed up as a Individual seller following advise that it could be changed to a Sole trader/limited company later on.
I see this is not the case. I contacted seller support and they said that I could close this account and reopen a new one under the business details. I am worried about doing this as Ive read people having issue getting a new account after closing an account and that it can take a long time. Looking for advise, should I continue on this account in till i hit the disbursement limit, Will amazon let me change to sole trader then?
thanks

Definitely don’t do this. I’m sure someone more knowledgeable than me will be along shortly to tell you the correct way to proceed however the advice given by seller support will most likely get both accounts suspended.

Definitely don’t do this but instead update your account details and go through a new verification.

Did amazon request you change it after hitting the disbursement limit?
