Hi everyone,
I’m trying to add a secondary user to my client’s Amazon Seller Central account to help manage catalog listings. Instead of using my catalog specialist’s personal email, I created a separate business email (catalog@[mybusiness].com) to keep things professional and secure.
When attempting to add this secondary user under Settings → User Permissions, Amazon is requesting identity verification for the new user (which I named as the same name as my main account name). It’s asking for passport details and other verification steps.
Since I’m the same person managing both logins, I would be uploading my own passport twice. My concern is:
• Will Amazon flag this as suspicious activity or a duplicate account?
• Is there a workaround to create a secondary access account without ID verification?
• Has anyone successfully added a business-related secondary user without issues?
I’d appreciate any insights or best practices to avoid triggering Amazon’s automated security checks. Thanks in advance!
