German WEEE upload steps and precautions
On October 6, the Amazon platform opened the German WEEE upload channel. Sellers should upload the WEEE-Reg.-Nr number to the background in time. If the registration number has not been uploaded on January 1, 2023, Amazon will take measures such as blocking and suspending sales of non-compliant products.
Today, I will share with you the uploading process and precautions of the German WEEE on the Amazon platform. Full of dry goods, pay attention to collection!
Upload process:
The first step is to log in to the seller platform, go to the producer responsibility extension compliance information page to submit your WEEE-Reg.-Nr number, or click the prompt box on the Amazon platform to directly enter the upload interface
The second step is to select the corresponding registration category
According to the category selection of their own products, the products of domestic sellers are generally the fifth category. If you are not sure about your product category, you can find a service provider who helps you register for consultation or click ( /nF )Inquire.

The third step, in the corresponding registration category, fill in the WEEE-Reg.-Nr number
If the seller is a distributor, you can use the WEEE-Reg-Nr number provided by the upstream supplier to upload. When uploading, you must check "I have received this electrical and electronic equipment scrap registration provided by my supply chain producer. No". If the seller submits his own registration number, just ignore this option.

PS : The seller only needs to fill in the 8 digits of the registration number when filling in, no need to add DE before the number

Finally click submit
After providing information on Seller Central, Amazon will verify your submission with the appropriate government agency or producer responsibility organization. Amazon may take up to 5 business days to complete the verification of the registration number.

Once verified by Amazon, the status next to the seller ID will change from "Submitted" to "Active" or "Inactive + Inactive Reason". If the status is "valid", it proves that the submission is successful and you can sell the product with confidence. 
If the status is "invalid", the seller can take corresponding actions according to the reasons provided by Amazon, and then re-upload the registration number.
