We have tried to sell and list a product but the following message appears;

  • You need approval to list this brand.

    • You are not approved to list this product and we are not accepting applications at this time.

Has anybody experienced this before? We have sold many brands in the past but never had this issue., very odd indeed.

Why are for what reason do Amazon suddenly want and need approval? Best ways to resolve this?

Thanks

Lots of products / categories require approval. If they aren’t taking applications then as far as I know that’s that.

I’ve had this recently selling an old computer game (which others had listed in).

Amazon were exceptionally dismissive when I enquired stating they would not talk to me about it.

So another person paying the same membership can sell more items than me…seems unfair.

It’s a little messed up really, because they seem to block you when you probably have the right to sell that brand i.e. the brand already sells to wholesales etc.

Whereas in my case, I own a clothing brand I do not sell to anyone else, I am the only person authorised to sell the brand but they still allow piggybackers to join in the fun… Unless there is a way we can simply "lock buy box to [sellername] from the brand registry login.

We have the same problem with a number of products that are cleaners or disinfectants. We have been selling them for years, are a direct manufacturer that complies with legislation, but suddenly they are restricted. Tried contact Amazon but they were no help, in fact the Inactive Product help form has suspiciously disappeared from the help pages. I guess a bot has been set off to help deal with sellers abusing covid-19 but it is taking down legit listings in the process. Seller support did mention they were working to deal with this as they have had ‘a lot of complaints’

We are having the same problems with masks. We were selling them for quite of time however they just blocked our products and now saying this category requires approval. however, I see people are still selling their stuff.

How can we overcome this problem, anyone?
