As a new Amazon seller in the UK, it's important to have control over where your products are listed and sold. While Amazon's European marketplace integration offers exciting expansion opportunities, you may want to start by focusing solely on the UK market. Here's how to adjust your settings to sell exclusively on Amazon.co.uk.

Why Focus on One Marketplace?

  • Simplifies your selling operations
  • Reduces complexity of managing multiple marketplaces
  • Allows you to master one market before expanding
  • Helps avoid unintended international orders
  • Provides better control over shipping costs and logistics

Step-by-Step Guide to Limiting Sales to Amazon.co.uk

1. Deactivate Other European Marketplaces

  • Sign in to Seller Central
  • Go to Settings > Account Info
  • Select "Holiday Settings" for each marketplace:

2. Update Your Shipping Settings

  • Navigate to Settings > Shipping Settings
  • Uncheck international shipping options
  • Ensure only UK shipping methods are selected
  • Save your changes

3. Verify Your Settings

  • Confirm your shipping options are limited to UK addresses
  • Review your account settings to ensure all changes are saved

Future Considerations

When you're ready to expand beyond the UK market:

  • Reactivate desired marketplaces by removing holiday settings
  • Update shipping settings to include international options
  • Review local regulations and requirements for each marketplace
  • Consider using Amazon's European Fulfillment Network (EFN)

Pro Tips:

  • Keep your listings updated while marketplaces are inactive
  • Monitor your account settings regularly
  • Save your original marketplace settings for future reference
  • Document any specific requirements for each marketplace for future expansion

Need Additional Help?

❗ Remember: You can always expand to additional European marketplaces when your business is ready. Starting with a focused approach in the UK market can help build a strong foundation for future growth.

Account verification / funds held
by Seller_T9IjpuP1n4i4X

Hello! I was requested to provide some KYC information on 27th June, which I provided on 28th June. This specifically related to me and my co-founders proof of address and passport. It’s now business day 7 - I fully appreciate the importance of KYC requirements, however we have in excess of £250,000 held with Amazon that we need for supplier / payment / VAT / credit card payments. Seller central have recommended waiting until business day 10 has passed as the process takes time however my concern is our credit score and / or business reputation will be heavily impacted if I can not make the requisite payments on time. I’m severely concerned about the outlook for my company and hope that someone can please review the information as soon as possible.

Missing June Sales
by Seller_0RxXT38Z8SoGb

There are Sales Orders missing from our Reports repository. I have compared the Tax report to the reports repository and there are a significant number of orders missing. Also our fees do not come anywhere near the value invoiced. There are also sales orders on the report repository that do not appear on the VAT calculation report for June. How do i get accurate sales data for June?

Im having an issue which can't be solved via Seller Support.

4 months ago I received a KYC email and promptly uploaded verification details, the next day no issues and the account was back up with full selling privileges.

Today I woke up and I had disbursements cancelled and i couldn't request disbursement. After speaking with seller central they said my account has been subject to a verification check and to check performance notifications. The only performance notifications from Amazon are regarding ID for a secondary user that we cannot get a suitable ID from (that amazon needs) until next month. Since, i have deleted the user just in case this is causing the issue.

After further investigation I have noticed that my driving licence expired yesterday, the one issued within amazon KYC back in February - my issue is, if this is the issue why don't i have a notification to upload the new ID document. I can't get through to anyone and i'm just being told to wait 10 days until KYC team get back to me, it's worrying how they've not sent me any communication regarding this. Unfortunately we have staff and bills to pay for -- Any help in terms of point of contact or help from the mods would be really appreciated.

Mine was rejected for KYC verification due to long company name. I have submitted different Chinese pinyin combinations several times, and even the hanyu pinyin letter combinations recommended to me by Amazon Seller Support customers are not getting through.

My full company name in Chinese pinyin is “jiaxingshinanhuquxinfengchenwenniyangmaoshantaokoujiagongdian”.

Seller Support suggested two pinyin alphabetical combinations “Jxsnhqxinfengchenwenniyangmaoshantaokoujiagongdian”.

“Jiaxingshinanhuquxinfengchenwenniyangmaoshantaokou”

I've tried all of these, including various combinations I've tried on my own, and it's been close to 10 attempts and I've been rejected every time. I don't know what to do anymore, my account is just about to go over the two month review period and I desperately need a solution to this problem. Please help me! Please!

Sudden increase in Deferred transactions
by Seller_RLXCX068q9bgP

My deferred transactions have gone from about 15% of my balance, to 60%

Has anyone else seen this? Maybe it's a new policy?

Hello,

For the past year and a half, I have been trying to recover the funds from my Amazon Seller account. The issue stems from an inability to verify the account due to documentation requirements. Amazon is requesting an outdated document dated 08/2024, which they claim matches what is filed with the Bulgarian Commercial Registry.

However, I have submitted a more recent and significantly more reliable document, not only translated but also certified under the Hague Apostille Convention. This document has been processed through a certified translation agency, validated by the Bulgarian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and carries four official stamps verifying that we are a legitimate and registered company.

This very same document has been accepted by authorities and payment providers in Greece, Romania, the Czech Republic, and other countries, without issue.

So I must ask: Why is Amazon insisting on an older document, when I have provided a newer and officially certified version? All orders through Amazon were fulfilled over a year ago, and we have yet to receive our payment.

Is this deliberate obstruction, or is your team merely following automated procedures without actually reviewing the documents we have spent time and money to prepare?

I expect a clear and prompt explanation.

Hi,

Has anyone experienced the same problem as me?

I was required to submit information to verify my selling account on the 9th of September 2024. I had submitted the relevant information and was told that the documents did not match the online records. Now all documents match the online records, but now there is a new problem since the 12th of September. No matter which device/browser I use, amazon assistants tell me that they cannot see that I have pressed the submitted for verification button and the bottom of the page even though I am and have shown them countless video proof and screenshot evidence.

Many of the assistants have agreed that there is a technical fault on their side of some sort and will try contact those who can fix it.

It has been over 2 weeks now and still the problem is not resolved, and because of this technical glitch/issue, my payments are still on hold. I am new to selling on amazon and have not been paid a penny because of this issue and it is hurting business.

Please can someone advise me on what I should do and whom shall I contact to resolve this issue. Is there someone/somewhere else that I can submit this information for it to be verified outside this system? The only option I see is explaining to an associate who will forward it to another, who then tells me to press the submit button and closes the case.

Please can someone advise or guide me

the message on my account is as below:

"Additional information required for verifying your selling on Amazon account

Your selling privileges may be temporarily suspended if you do not provide the required information. Please note: We may need to request subsequent information to complete the verification process."

How can I cancel a disposal order
by Seller_Atp1PBVc4FoBj
Amazon replied

My account wasn't verified from Amazon payments team as they were not able to verify my address from the bills I submitted and my stock is in Amazon fulfillment center. I had set up automatic removal settings in case the account isn't reactivated.

Today, I received an Email of disposal order, and I want to cancel that disposal order to create a removal order on my address but my account is locked due to invalid charge method error. I've changed the card multiple times, and Amazon has charged the verification fee on the card multiple times but it's not charging the selling fee, and hence I can not access my sellercentral account.

Is there any way that I could convert that disposal order to a removal order?
