Recently, rumors about a new round of verification have been spreading among Amazon sellers, and Amazon has officially announced that the “2024 Annual Certification of the US Consumer Act” is coming soon. According to the announcement, Amazon will send notifications to sellers who need to complete the annual certification one after another. Sellers are requested to pay close attention to email notifications to avoid missing the window period and causing their accounts to be deactivated.
1. Important tips for annual certification
If the seller has completed the information submission required by the US Consumer Act last year, Amazon will send notifications to sellers who need to complete this annual certification in the next period of time. Sellers should continue to pay attention to email notifications to ensure that the certification is completed in time to avoid account deactivation.
2. Operation tips and precautions
Check email notifications: Sellers can go to the backend account health page to check whether they have received the “Complete your priority operations” warning and related certification notifications.
Seller requirements: All high-volume sellers must be certified at least once a year to prove that their information is still correct. High-volume sellers are defined as sellers who have sold 200 or more new or unused consumer goods in any consecutive 12 months in the past 24 months and have a total revenue of $5,000 or more.
Account Update: Non-high-volume sellers do not need to verify again, but all high-volume third-party sellers must update their information in a timely manner and notify Amazon when the information changes. Amazon must verify any updates made.
3. Notes and Risk Reminders
If the seller’s account is within the scope of the annual certification of the bill, but fails to complete the self-certification process within the required time, Amazon will issue a formal notice to the seller. If the seller does not respond within the required time, or Amazon cannot verify the account information, Amazon may freeze funds or suspend the account until the seller successfully completes the verification.
The “2024 Annual Certification of the US Consumer Act” is an important initiative of Amazon for seller account information, aimed at protecting consumer rights and account security. Sellers should pay close attention to notifications and prepare and complete the required certification process in a timely manner to ensure the normal operation of the account and the security of funds.
