In cross-border e-commerce sales, Amazon’s FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) service provides sellers with convenient warehousing and logistics solutions. However, sellers may sometimes need to delete FBA shipments in order to adjust inventory or deal with other issues. This article will analyze the Amazon FBA shipment deletion process and answer questions about whether the shipment will be received after it is deleted.
1. Amazon FBA shipment deletion process.
Log in to Amazon Seller Center: First, log in to Amazon Seller Center and enter the FBA management page.
Select shipments: In the FBA management page, find the shipments to be deleted and select them.
Delete shipments: Click the corresponding delete button or option to confirm the deletion of the shipment. The Amazon system will process the deletion request.
Shipment status update: After deleting the shipment, the Amazon system will update the status of the shipment and show it as deleted or removed.
2. Will the deleted shipment be received?
Once the seller deletes the FBA shipment, generally, these shipments will no longer be received or enter Amazon’s warehouse. The Amazon system will remove the deleted shipments from the inventory and will no longer be associated with these shipments. Therefore, the deleted shipments will no longer be received or processed.
However, it should be noted that it may take some time for the Amazon system to process the deletion request and update the relevant data. Therefore, it may still happen that the shipment status is not updated in time for a period of time after the deletion. Sellers can confirm whether the shipment status has been updated to deleted or removed by checking the FBA management page or contacting Amazon customer service.
Three, precautions and suggestions.
Carefully delete shipments: Before deleting FBA shipments, sellers should consider carefully and ensure that the deleted shipments are in line with actual needs and business plans. Once deleted, the shipment cannot be restored, which may affect inventory management and supply chain.

Restrictions on shipment deletion: According to Amazon’s policies and regulations, there may be restrictions on shipment deletion in some cases. Sellers should understand and comply with Amazon’s regulations to ensure compliance with the regulations.
