Cannot use our manufacturer barcode
I’m converting multiple SKUs to FBA.
The requirements on the convert page states:
Convert to ‘Fulfilled by Amazon’
Fulfillment by Amazon requires a single, scannable, correct barcode that can be clearly read by our scanners. There are two types of barcodes you can use:
*) Use manufacturer barcodes (UPC, EAN, JAN, or ISBN) that are already on the unit, when the ASIN is eligible
*) Print Amazon barcodes (FNSKUs) from within your seller account and apply them yourself
In the Barcode Type column, the page says:
Amazon Barcode Only
Why?
Our barcode is:
- For our own product, we manufacture the product
- Direct from GS1, not 3rd party
- Was accepted by Amazon as an EAN when creating each SKU
- Barcode fully checks out here: https://gepir.gs1.org/index.php/search-by-gtin
In Settings I have the “FBA Product Barcode Preference” set to “Manufacturer barcode”.
How do I get Amazon to accept our barcode?

Preparation of Beer, Wine & Spirits products in Germany and the UK
Special preparation of inbounds containing Beer, Wine & Spirits products in Germany and the UK
All Beer, Wine & Spirits products in Germany and the UK’s Fulfilment by Amazon are prepared by Amazon at specialist fulfilment centres. Please consider the following preparation conditions:
- Units do not need to be individually prepared/conditioned. If units are received prepared, they will be re-packaged and prepared at the fulfilment centre where they do not meet carrier requirements.
- Units should be sent in pallets (fulfilling the general requirements for pallet inbound), or another method that ensures that individual units will not break during transport to the fulfilment centre or during inbound (this is the seller’s responsibility).
- If units are to be sent in cartons, we require cartons to be closed and not include units with two different FNSKUs.
- With regards to bundles (both mono-product and multi-product), sellers will be responsible for sending the bundled units together in a carton or other packaging with the FNSKU sticker for the bundle ASIN on the packaging (not on each bottle). Preparation services do not include picking and assembling bundles. The packaging does not need to be prepared for delivery to the customer (but should follow the requirements set forth in the second point above) and will be re-packaged and prepared at the fulfilment centre.
- Each unit needs to be labelled with the FNSKU linked to the country-specific SKU (e.g. For Germany: FNSKU X000000000/MSKU DE-FBA-SKU1). Labelling needs to be done on the product itself, covering the original product barcode. For a better customer experience, we recommend that bottles are labelled with the FNSKU sticker not overlapping any information on the product label
Note: If the seller is unable to label each specific product, the service “labelling by Amazon” is still possible at a cost of €0.15/£0.15 per unit.

Because not all products are eligible for commingling (manufacturers barcode only)
To qualify, products must meet the following requirements*, at a minimum:
• Condition - New
• Single readable UPC, EAN, or ISBN barcode matching single ASIN in Amazon catalog
• Not expiration dated product
• Not consumable or topical products (Shampoo, soaps, etc.)
• Not Dangerous Good
You will need an FNSKU label.

Thanks.
There is no expiry date on the product (spirits).
Is it because the item is classed as a consumable?
I have purchased spirits from Amazon previously and they always had the manufacture barcode on them.
Do I just place the Amazon FNSKU over the top of the label barcode?
