As one of the world’s largest e-commerce platforms, Amazon has attracted many entrepreneurs and sellers. For novice sellers who are new to Amazon, the convenience of FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) is undoubtedly a huge attraction. However, after choosing to use FBA, many sellers often fall into doubts about the operation of FBA labels. This article will summarize the common questions about the operation of Amazon FBA shipment labels.
1. Printing of FBA product labels.
When using FBA services, it is crucial to print product labels correctly. Here are several ways to print FBA product labels:
1. Use A4 paper to print the label, cut it, and paste it with transparent tape.
2. Use self-adhesive A4 paper to print, cut it and stick it directly on the product.
3. Use pre-cut self-adhesive A4 paper to print, and stick it as soon as it is pulled out.
4. Use a label printer, but be aware that the label must be processed or homemade.
5. Use a thermal printer, download the FBA product label, slice it and print it.
It is worth noting that it is recommended to use carbon ribbon and coated paper when printing, because long-term storage or humidity may cause thermal paper labels to fade.
2. How to make your own FBA labels?
You need to make sure that your own FBA labels can be scanned. You can take a screenshot of the existing label, adjust the size and appearance using Photoshop, and then save it to your computer for printing and use at any time.
3. What software is used to make FBA labels?
After purchasing a label printer, it usually comes with its own label making software.
4. How to print FBA product labels in advance?
Enter the Amazon backend, select Manage Inventory, click the SKU for which you need to print a label, select Print Product Label, fill in the required quantity and paper/label type, and finally click Print.
5. Do FBA labels have to be printed with self-adhesive paper?
Not necessarily. If you use items on the “Amazon Logistics” product, A4 paper is also acceptable. But be aware that A4 paper is easy to blur and wear, and if the label wears, it will cause trouble.
6. During the printing stage, if the product name on the label is wrong, can it be modified?
Yes, after downloading the label, use the relevant software to edit and modify it.
7. What are the precautions for printing product labels?
You can use a laser printer and A4 self-adhesive paper, or use a barcode printer (128B format). Inkjet printers are not recommended.
2. Issues related to FBA product labeling.
1. What are the requirements for labeling of Amazon FBA products?
FBA requires that product labels and shipment labels must be affixed to the outer box. Set products must be attached with a “Do not remove the set” label, while non-set products do not.
2. How to distinguish the product labels generated after FBA?
The barcode on the product label is the product’s FNSKU, which corresponds to the product one by one. After printing the label, stick it on the corresponding product.
3. How to stick the product label when shipping?
FBA delivery requires two labels: product label and outer box label. Product label is affixed to product packaging, and outer box label is affixed to outer box for scanning.
4. How to affix FBA overweight label?
US station: Single items over 50 pounds need to be delivered separately, marked with “Team lift”. European station: Overweight “Heavy Package” label is affixed to the outer box.
5. There are four small boxes in a large box, how to affix the labels?
Product label is affixed to each product, and outer box label is affixed to the large box. This can avoid unpacking and scanning.
3. Other issues of Amazon FBA labeling.
1. How to choose Barcode Type?
Choose Amazon Barcode, which is related to FNSKU. If you choose the manufacturer barcode, the product will be mixed with other similar products.
2. Notes for FBA delivery:
Each outer box of goods needs to be affixed with 2 FBA labels, affixed on different boxes.
The outer box should be neat and thick, with sufficient internal filling.
The express delivery bill should not be affixed to the label.
For novice sellers, “How to operate Amazon FBA shipment labels” may be one of the most confusing questions. But with gradual familiarity and practice, sellers will gradually master this process, ensuring that the seller’s products can be smoothly delivered to Amazon warehouses and achieve more efficient sales.
