Pallet shipping boxed products to FBA
I have heavy (5/10kg) products in plain brown boxes that we ship ‘as is’ to customers. I want to ship them on pallets into FBA.
I understand about putting a SKU label or MFR label on the box to identify the product but how to I put a ‘box’ label on the box without a) having two barcodes on the box (SKU and 'box) and b) defacing my product?
I don’t want my customers getting a product plastered with shipping labels? Surely I don’t need to box the box so Amazon can take it out of the box, before putting it in a new box to ship?
I just need a sanity check, relatively new to FBA and getting confused over a million pages of ‘help’.

If you are shipping on pallets and the items are individual, rather than boxes of, then all that is required, is the FNKSU label. You don’t need to attach a box label as well.

Thanks so much Neil.
Sorry this is my first pallet load. So if I can just make sure I’ve got this right…
Amazon shipping workflow sent me 30 packaging labels for 30 of the same SKU. Do I ignore these then? If I use them I will need to rip open the shrink wrap and stick them indvidually on each retail box.
Was I meant to attach an FNSKU onto my products? I am reselling Delonghi Kettles in original packaging if that helps?
I have resold other kettles before but I only sent in small shipments. I did not attach any extra labels to them as I thought their barcode was sufficient and they have all sold.
Thanks
