Our freight company has told me that my order is supposed to be delivered to Amazon UK LBA4.
Due to LBA4 is busy, Amazon informed our freight partner to redirect the cargo to LTN7, does it affect the inventory update time? Does Amazon will finally internally move my cargoes to LBA4 from LTN7?

Also just be wary that any large refund may put you over the threshold where you should have become VAT registered.
So for example you were doing a 12 month turnover of £80k and got a VAT refund back of £15k then HMRC calculate your turnover to be £95k and you would need to become VAT registered (based on current threshold of £90k)

Thank you Stillhere. I have opened 12 cases with the Help people trying to find out what I am doing wrong. That has not been mentioned once. Millions of people self-publish books. Most sell very few copies. Nor will mine.... so it would be ridiculous to register as a business with its monthly payments when I will probably sell, at most, 10 or 20 copies of my book. What do other people do?

Probably because they have not properly read your question, and they would not know what you were trying to list. Sadly Seller Support (SS) are not as knowledgeable as other sellers, and mostly read from scripted replies, AND have been known to give out totally wrong advice.
Before you go any further you need to register with HMRC and wait for your UTR to come in the post,

Its been pulled from several sources and outside links are banned on Amazon anyway.
My advice is to ask your accountant to check.
But - VAT is not applicable to goods exported and Amazon are the deemed supplier for VAT purposes only. So anyone (who is not UK established) selling something at £12 on UK site, then Amazon is the deemed supplier. You actually sell to Amazon at £10 and Amazon sells to customer at £12 and sends £2 to HMRC.
Your sale is £10 (VAT not applicable as an export) for accounting purposes.
The fees on invoice is my understanding of the recent changes Amazon are making on 1st August here you will be invoiced from an office in same country where you are established. And just like any invoice for goods/services Amazon will be adding VAT at the rate your country specifies.
This is certainly the way eBay are doing it and have been doing it for several years. But this is Amazon so they may do it differently but it is my understanding.

in my account it says
Your next scheduled transfer initiation date is 02/07/2024*. However, if your available balance remains £0.00, no transfer will be initiated on that date.
I've just enrolled a product into the VINE programme for the 2 free reviews to start with. Once I get these reviews, am I able to pay for the remaining 28 reviews or have I now lost the opportunity to enrol my product in VINE for 30 reviews?
My account has been deactivated as i supposedly need to confirm my identity on the US market place? i only sell in the UK but have noticed i have 12 or more deactivated stores which include US, Mexico and Canada etc although ive never setup an account in those market places or even sold in them.
How do i give the US team enough information to pass verification when i dont live in the US, work in the US, Pay taxes in the US? i have no paperwork which would relate to their country? my account has been active for years and now its been deactivated and i cant pay my bills.. any help would be fantastic
