Product Inspection
Upon receiving your inventory at our facility, we thoroughly inspect each item to ensure it meets Amazon’s condition requirements. This includes verifying that items are new, undamaged, and properly labeled. For restricted or fragile products, we make sure to apply any necessary precautionary measures, such as extra padding or hazard labeling.
Amazon-Compliant Labeling
We ensure that each product has the correct barcode (Amazon FNSKU or manufacturer barcode). If required, we print and apply FNSKU labels to each individual product, following Amazon’s placement guidelines. All products are scanned and verified to ensure that the correct label is applied to the correct product, preventing any confusion or errors when they reach Amazon’s fulfillment centers.
Packaging Requirements
We strictly adhere to Amazon’s packaging requirements to avoid any potential issues during the fulfillment process. This includes:
Poly Bagging
Items such as apparel, textiles, or loose items are sealed in poly bags with appropriate suffocation warnings.
Bubble Wrapping
Fragile items are securely wrapped in bubble wrap or protective materials to prevent damage during transit.
Boxing and Cartoning
We pack multiple units into cartons if necessary, making sure that the box dimensions and weight comply with Amazon’s specific guidelines.
Expiration Dates
For items with an expiration date, we ensure that the date is clearly visible and formatted correctly as per Amazon’s requirements (MM/DD/YYYY).
Bundling and Multipacks
If you sell products as bundles or multipacks, we properly package and label them as such, ensuring that Amazon recognizes them as a single sellable unit. We apply the necessary “Sold as Set” or “Do Not Separate” labels when required.
Quality Control
Each prepared order undergoes a thorough quality control check before it leaves our facility to ensure it meets Amazon’s stringent standards. This step helps reduce the risk of non-compliance, which can lead to delays or additional charges from Amazon.
Shipping to Amazon Fulfillment Centers
After your products are properly prepared and labeled, we organize and pack them into cartons for shipment. We work with your preferred carriers or choose the most cost-effective option to ship your products to Amazon’s fulfillment centers. We also generate and apply the correct shipping labels, ensuring that the cartons meet Amazon’s weight and dimension guidelines.
Amazon’s Packaging and Shipping Standards
Amazon has specific packaging and shipping standards to ensure the safe and efficient handling of products in their fulfillment centers. These include:
Barcode Labels
- Every product must have a scannable barcode (FNSKU or manufacturer barcode). If the item is being sold as part of a multipack or bundle, additional labels may be required.
Packaging Materials
- Amazon requires specific packaging for different types of products. Fragile items must be bubble-wrapped, and liquid items must have secure, leak-proof packaging.
Poly Bags
- Items placed in poly bags must have a suffocation warning label and must be transparent enough to allow the barcode to be scanned through the bag or have an external label.
Expiration Dates
- Any product with an expiration date must have it clearly visible and printed in the correct format on both the item and the packaging.
Box Weight and Size Limits
- Boxes should not exceed 23 KG unless pre-approved, and no box should be longer than 62 Cm on any side unless otherwise required by the product size.
Non-compliance with these rules can result in Amazon charging non-compliance fees, delays in listing your products, or even rejecting your shipment entirely. Our FBA preparation services ensure that your products are fully compliant, helping you avoid these issues.
