Any timelines of being able to ship to Ireland FBA warehouse?
I’m asking this more out of desperate home than anything, but I’m Irish and use FBA. After Brexit, I stopped sending stock to the UK warehouses and started shipping to the German ones. Obviously, that’s been an increased expense (average shipping price per item has jumped from 20c all the way up to 90c an item now ) . I had hoped when the fulfillment center opened in Dublin back in September, we’d have seen some movement on being able to ship stock in there, but it’s been utter radio silence since.
Does anyone know, typically, how long it would take Amazon between opening a center and allowing people to ship stock to it? Its so stupid that I’m having to ship stock from Ireland to Germany when there’s a fulfillment center 30 minutes away from me. I’ve not been able to find any information from Amazon about such a thing, or even a line of enquiry to follow with seller support (who obviously won’t be told much until it’s actually a thing).

Opening a centre for stock to be stored and fulfilled from is different from a receiving hub
That one may never become a receiving hub
Not to say they won’t change that or open one that is

I would think that this will only be possible if Amazon ever have an IE only website. At the moment there would be far too many issues with customs if they start shipping to the UK from an IE fulfilment centre.
The downside of this would be that you would only be fulfilling to Irish Customers…not sure what the demand would be for that.
