Guided reading

Hello guys! As we all know, Amazon in the United States has many warehouses in the United States, and sellers have many choices. There are many advantages of using FBA for delivery, which can increase the exposure of the store, allow sellers to get more buyers and sales, and at the same time save a lot of manpower, material and financial resources for themselves, and fully expand global sales business. The most important thing is, we The seller's wallet also swelled up!

Although FBA has many advantages, there are often various problems when sellers send goods to FBA in the United States, which affects the timely warehousing of goods. Warehousing does not sound like a big problem, but a little carelessness in the process will still add a lot of trouble, not to mention the extra cost, and the subsequent impact will even affect the overall operation of the store. This is the last thing we want to see. Today, Xiao Jiejie will tell you, what problems should FBA pay attention to? How can we ensure that the goods can be quickly put into the warehouse and ensure the normal operation of the store.

1. Customs requirements

Customs inspection will affect the time limit for warehousing. After creating a cross-border logistics order, you need to perform export declaration according to the customs requirements before shipment according to the mode of transportation, and perform import customs clearance when the goods arrive at the destination country. Therefore , it is necessary to prepare in advance the matters needing attention in import and export customs affairs before delivery , so as to avoid the goods being detained or returned by the customs and prolong the transportation time. In particular, it is necessary to carefully study the new policies of the customs. You can ask the carrier or customs broker to obtain more guidance on the goods and avoid the risk of the goods being detained.

2. Tariff requirements

Since AMAZON does not provide any customs clearance and customs prepayment services, in order to avoid the detention of goods due to customs duties, please confirm the customs payer before shipping the goods. It is recommended to prepay customs duties or pay customs duties by a third party.

1. Amazon does not act as the consignee and does not provide customs clearance of goods. Therefore, sellers must choose the tax-included channel for the goods that are stocked to Amazon's warehouse in the United States.

2. The customs clearance of the goods is entrusted to the FBA first-way logistics carrier to be responsible for smooth customs clearance and final delivery of the goods.

It is the seller's responsibility to comply with all U.S. customs laws and regulations, including applicable duties and taxes. Goods imported into the United States are subject to import duties and taxes, whether self-employed or commercial entities. Certain goods are exempt from customs duties. U.S. Customs and Border Protection does not require importers to have a license or permit. Other agencies may require permits, permits, or other certifications, depending on the imported goods.

3. Category requirements

Product requirements are also very strict. To select the FBA products to be sent, you first need to determine whether the products can be put into the warehouse, whether they are embargoed products by Amazon logistics, and estimate the quantity to be sent to the warehouse. If it is a product that is restricted by Amazon, Amazon will also require the seller to provide a "product ingredient information table" or other additional information. The seller needs to prepare relevant materials in advance to ensure that the requirements for storage and transportation of these products are met. It is the seller's responsibility to ensure that all products comply with applicable regulatory requirements.

Fourth, product packaging

1. When the goods are sent out, it is necessary to pay attention to the appearance of the goods and check whether the goods inside are damaged. Amazon will reject defective products. Therefore , you need to pay attention to check the packaging and protect the goods inside before leaving the warehouse .

2. Products exported to the United States must be labeled MADE IN CHINA , and the outer box and each product must be labeled "MADE IN CHINA", otherwise they will be detained and returned by the local customs.

3. Sellers need to check the SKU code frequently . If there is an error, the seller needs to pay Amazon to help replace it, which not only increases the cost, but also affects the delivery time.

4. The package in a single box cannot exceed 30kg . If the package in a single box exceeds 15kg, the "Team Lift" label needs to be affixed.

5. Product infringement issues

Sellers should also note that products sent to FBA in the United States must not be infringing products, otherwise they will not only be confiscated, but will also be banned in serious cases. The United States attaches great importance to the trademark and brand of products, and sellers who sell infringing products will suffer great losses. At the same time, we must protect our products from being infringed, and conduct trademark registration in a timely manner.

Six, choose a reliable US FBA head

There are three types of logistics that can be selected for the first journey: express delivery, air delivery and Shanghai delivery. The express delivery speed is the fastest and the cost is the highest. The air delivery time and price are second. , Clipper Haipai has a faster timeliness, but the price is lower than that of air freight, and the cost performance is high.

In addition, when iron people choose logistics, they need to consider price and timeliness, but they cannot blindly covet low prices . If they encounter a company whose service cannot keep up, it will cause a lot of trouble. You can also combine the three logistics methods to form the most suitable logistics solution for you.

Finally, Xiaojiejie has to remind the ironmen that if you do not comply with some product preparation requirements, safety requirements and product restrictions for Amazon FBA warehousing, it will lead to preprocessing of the Amazon fulfillment center or non-compliance with you. Additional charges for behavior may also result in Amazon fulfillment centers rejecting, discarding, or returning your inventory, increasing operating costs. In severe cases, you are prohibited from sending shipments to the Amazon fulfillment center in the future, and you will be banned! Enter the Amazon FBA blacklist! Of course, as long as we follow the rules well, we will not be blocked.

In addition, pay attention to the requirements for warehousing and choose a guaranteed cross-border logistics service provider, so that our goods can be warehousing quickly and smoothly!
