      Hi Tatiana, seen many of your videos, amazing stuff, they motivated me to try this. I'm really trying to give it my all best, and create my own luck, but now there not approving me to sell in a toy category with a simple product I purchased, soooo frustrating. How can I overcome this decision and appeal as I'm a little surprised because i gave them what they wanted and more, thanks?

      Hey Tatiana, I watched your video and many others, unfortunately I didn’t find the answer I’m looking for, it’s all the same information, I will ask the same question that I asked them.
      I know Amazon wants a credit card that has a history and nothing new, that being said can someone add his personal credit card with history yet a different bank or a new bank for the transaction

    Thank you Tatiana! can you make a video about budgeting for a prospective amz store and also whether it is a good idea or not to find angel investors for such a project?
    another question is how to estimate what would be better - an amazon fba store (with prime or without) and a shop on a different platform (beyond the known fact about more control and CS quality as well as newsletter / community base). for those who do not have yet a newsletter and a big pool of people waiting for those products.
    What I don't like about amazon as a buyer is that often some products come in a defective box / with a defective cover (if a book) or something just is not working. I rarely return products but of course would want make sure my items are in the best possible shape. How much control over that a seller has after the items have been shipped to the inventory storage?

    Hi Tatiana!
    Thank you for the video!
    I do have a follow up question on one of the points you made. When you first creat a professional account, it asks you what type of business am I (“none, I am an individual”, “charity”, “private owned business”, “publicly owned business”, “state owned business”)
    What do you recommend I chose? I do not have a set business name yet. But I would like to sell selling. Do you suggest I wait and make a company name or use my own name and click “none, I am an individual” business type option? (I am located in NYC)
    Thanks so much!!

    Hi Tatiana, Just to let you know in Amazon Europe is possible to change the company but works different than US, we just have an option on the seller central to transfer the business entity and now is just easy as US but it wasn’t simple like that some months ago

    hello! great video ive been studying your channel and taking notes as you've been speaking. I might have missed this part and I apologize if you're repeating something, but if we were to open an account as an individual and provide bank information and all should it be our personal information as well as personal address or do you recommend having a PO Box or another form of information. I know you mentioned not to use a bank account, do you think that the personal information would be safe to use?
    thank you,

    Hi Tatiana, first, I would like to thank you for the very informative video. I had already created a merch by Amazon account in 2018, to create designs to be printed on T shirts. Because I didn't really have knowledge how to generate income, and after years I just assumed my account would be closed. After watching this video I went back to try and log on to my account and I was able to get in. I would like to do drop shipping business using Amazon. Can I convert my old account to the new type I want or do I need to create a new account specific for drop shipping? Thank you for your support!

    Hello Tatiana, thank you for sharing this great information, I just have one question.
    You stated that Amazon is very strict about their policies and requirements, I do have an Amazon associate affiliate account, do I need to open a Amazon Sellers account to sell on Amazon.
    Would that be considered having two accounts?
    Thank you in advance for your time.

    Hi Tatiana, love your vids! They’re very informative, helpful and well delivered!
    I have a question if anyone can help! I’m trying to setup my account but I cannot connect my phone # to the sellers account since it’s already connected to my regular Amazon account. I asked Amazon for help but they just keep telling me I need a new number with a new email for the sellers account. Any suggestions? Do I need a whole other phone just for this? I don’t want to use a family members because if FBA goes well for me, I’d like for them to try it as well.

Thank you so much for sharing this information I’ve been looking to start selling with Amazon for a while and now know exactly where to start. I have all of the documents needed however I recently moved so my business and ID does not match my new mailing address. Will I need to update them before trying to open an professional account with Amazon?

    I have a question 🙋‍♀️ 🤍
    If you sign up as a business Llc and they ask for a utility bill and it has to have the same name on it as the business and the same address how are you suppose to have a utility bill as a online business when you don’t have a business location to pay for utility bills ? I just want to know so when I change my information to my brand new business account that I’ll be working on while o get my foot in the door with my personal information. If you could help, if you don’t know I still appreciate your help and time ☀️🤍

    Hi Tatiana. Always a great informative show. I have watched many of your videos but none of them discuss step by step information of creating your seller central account. I have an old seller central account which I just re activated Paid the fees and finished the Tax interview but now am stuck on the product questions such as will my products have upc's, do i own the brand, how many products do I plan to sell etc. questions. Can you please help me get past this step.

  • @sarachersoni8324
    @sarachersoni8324 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Tatiana, in this video you said it's not a good idea to open a second account. I've opened my seller central account only to realize after that the country where I'm currently living isn't on the list of countries allowed to sell on Amazon (so I'm suspended), BUT my origin country is on the list! Unfortunately, I have already submitted all the documents with my info from the country where I'm living, but I thought I could give it a shot a submit again all the documents, but with the info from my origin country this time. Do you think in this case it would get too messy to try and change all the info in my current account, would you rather close that account and open a new one? Thank you for your precious advice!

  • @not_enoughmana
    @not_enoughmana 3 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I just went through changing my entity for the EU markets recently. I originally registered with a different company that I didn't end up setting up a full LLC for but wanted to register with my LLC later. Took me over a month to get it fixed but in case anyone comes across this, you can talk to them over chat to get them to re-enable the Entity field editing OR you can open a case with support requesting that they enable editing for you. If you walk through the issues with them over chat just be aware that they're 8 hours or so ahead of us, so you may have to wake up at 7am to catch them, but it's worth it to have them talk you through any other Account Verification issues you may be having.
    I was trying to use my EIN number, for example, but had no idea I kept getting rejected because in my state the EIN number is issued on a different document than my Articles of Organization and they needed the field to match up with the Entity Id from my Articles document.
    Anyway, hope this helps other folks!

      Hi Jazz, Many thanks for this tip, but how can you get on chat to amazon? They didn't verity/approve my account application. I am now trying to get them to reconsider my documents (which I have initially submitted in the wrong format) but all I can get from them are automated replies which don't resolve the situation and is quite frustrating.

      If you look at the bottom there are tabs that allow you to select a "Call" or "Chat" and if you're in the USA, you can only do the chat feature or email because the number is a UK number.

      Carla Goncalves beyond frustrating, same thing happened to me. Where you able to get it verified? I set up a new account under a new name and telephone number and recently sent a request to close my other account and praying to God that it doesn’t raise any flags for my new account. Not an expert here but maybe you should close your account first(I should have done that first😒) and then set up a new account with fresh email and number! Disclaimer: do your research before taking my advice

  • @sarachersoni8324
    @sarachersoni8324 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey Tatiana, hope you read this and you can suggest me what to do. I really want to start with this, I'm super motivated and already on track, already did my research, spoke to the suppliers for the product I have in mind, waiting for my sample and in the meantime, trying to set up my Seller Central account, which is way harder than I thought, it's been deactivated until I upload everything they want... the problem is understanding WHAT! When uploading the utility (internet) bill, there's a mandatory check saying something about having "a valid credit card on the document", so on the bill... I don't know how it works in the US but here in Malta you don't have this kind of info on a bill, do you have any idea what they mean by that? Is that something I'm missing here? I tried to get in touch with them to get answers by the "send an appeal" system seems horrible and not working properly...

Can I use the utility bill in my name (without LLC name on it), since the LLC address is same as my personal address and I am the LLC's primary contact on the seller account? Thank you so much for all your tutorials.

    Hi Tatiana!
    Quick question for you, when you mention setting up your account as company that has been around for awhile and has history, what does that mean? Like for instance I cant name my company a big brand name ( coke, Maybelline etc) So what do you mean by setting up your account that has history?

  • @caitlinvitale6362

    Hi Tatiana! I love your videos and just subscribed to your channel :) I have a question...so a long time ago I opened an amazon seller account but never had a chance to use it. I just reactivated it a few weeks ago because I want to sell my Etsy stuff on Amazon as well. If I need to make a bunch of changes to the account like my new business name, new business bank account, new store name, new email, new married name, new address *and* add my LLC...how do you suggest I do this without getting shut down? I heard in your video that you mentioned it's best not to make a lot of changes when updating a new account b/c Amazon could suspend it? Would LOVE your advice on this very much 🙏🙏

    6:13 regarding new companies / new bank accounts, Amazon says about business licenses - " must be valid for atleast 45 days from the time of registration". So, if anyone is planning to form a company - should plan 45 days ahead before signing up in seller central, I guess. Great info Tatiana as always!

    I’m starting to gather everything to open an Amazon seller central account. I would really like to start an LLC, but it would be a new business. I watched your video and you suggested waiting to open the LLC because it would be new. Would it be hard to get it excepted by Amazon with a new LLC? I have a bank account that I’ve had for years so I can use that one to open my seller central Amazon. Thought that would help to get account opened.
    Also I hate to open an LLC down the road because that will close the door to me selling in other countries like Germany and the UK. I’m not sure, what would you recommend?

    Hi! I had an old seller central account that I am trying to reactivate and when I click on the button that says register now nothing happens. It doesn't go to a new window or anything. I have been trying for a while with no luck. I cannot send a message because it requires me to be logged into my seller account to send a message. Any advice? The only thing I feel I can do now is start a whole new account and you suggested not to.

I don’t have a sellers account, I have never registered to sell, but I do have an Amazon Prime account that I use to purchase items, Is this going to be linked in anyway or are they 2 separate things??

    Very useful video!! I have a question: I am about to open my seller account for the first time as an Individual Professional. My deposit method is a Payoneer account. What happens if my address in Seller Central is written in a different order compared to my address written in my Payoneer Account Statement? For example, in Seller Central the Country and Zip Code are shown at the beginning, but in my Payoneer Account Statement, the Country and Zip Code are shown at the end. Will this be a problem for verification??

    Such a great, informative video. I was just wondering if anyone can give me some further advice on here. I live in Ireland and I'm going to set up my seller account in the next for weeks for FBA. I'm wondering if I should make my seller account with Amazon UK because I fear there might be issues with BREXIT? Because of BREXIT I will be shipping my products to an FBA centre in Paris to avoid any issues as both Ireland and France are still in the EU. So should I look to create a seller account through Amazon France or would it still be ok to set one up with Amazon UK?
    Thanks so much

    Hello! I have been watching your videos for a while now. I am very interested in doing this. I have a few questions...
    1) How long (approx) does Amazon take to approve/deny the Seller applications?
    2) Is it easy to change it from Professional Individual to a Professional Business Account?
    I'm wanting to apply Professional but with Individual for now to build up time for my business as you stated no "NEW businesses".

  • @jflsdknf
    @jflsdknf 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Thank you, I wish someone had explained this earlier. I already have samples and a supplier lined up and now stalled trying to get my account verified with utility bill. I didn’t know you had to have your own utility bill in your name in order to sell. I live with family so it’s a problem. I’ve tried everything and now looks like I’ll have to wait a month until a bill changed to my name comes in. I had to impose this on my husband’s family which I don’t feel is right of Amazon to expect. Meanwhile supplier’s waiting. Not a good place to be. I can only hope when I can finally submit the bill it gets approved.

I apologized and asked what I can do further because I've done everything I could think of and they basically blocked me.... so I wasn't able yo get back into that account to change anything at all (that's why I think they blocked me) so I made a new one..... I really hope this goes well and I get approved because of not. I'm screwed.

    The only problem I do face is that I am the "nomad" type as you've mentioned so I don't have utility bills on my name. That will cause a huge delay.
