As the saying goes, “you can’t eat hot tofu in a hurry.” When shipping on Amazon, you must not rush to ship. Before shipping, you must do a good job of preparation and be targeted to prevent mistakes in a hurry or chaos.
Inner box packaging requirements
1. Bulk products
Must be individually packaged and well packaged to ensure that no part is exposed; the outer packaging should be sealed to prevent the goods from scattering.
2. Set products
For example, a set of six different toy cars sold as one item must be marked with a set mark on its packaging. Add a label to the set product to clearly indicate that the product will be received and sold as a single item. For example, mark “This is a Set, Do Not Separate”.
3. Boxed products
Must use a hexahedral box with an opening or lid that will not open easily by itself. If the box is easy to open by itself, it should be sealed with tape, glue or staples, but it cannot be fixed with cable ties and nails to prevent harm to Amazon staff.
4. Goods packaged in polyethylene bags Polyethylene bags used to protect goods must meet the following requirements.
Polyethylene bags with an opening of at least 5 inches (measured flat) must provide an suffocation warning, which can be printed on the bag or affixed to the bag in the form of a label.
Polyethylene bags must be transparent.
Polyethylene bags must have a barcode (UPC, EAN, etc.) or an x00 label that can be scanned through the bag, or an X00 or ASIN label affixed to the outside of the bag.
Polyethylene bags must be completely sealed.
Polyethylene bags or shrink wrap must not exceed the size of the product by more than 3 inches.
Adult products must be packaged in black opaque polyethylene bags or shrink wrap.
Warning labels should comply with regulations.
5. Inner box label
In inventory management, click the “Edit” button of the product, and select Print product label to enter the label printing page. After the inner box label is printed, it must be processed and the “Made in China” logo must be added. This logo is required for shipments abroad. The integrity of the barcode must be ensured when the label is affixed. Do not affix it incorrectly. Once affixed incorrectly, the loss caused is difficult to estimate. Because a delivery fee needs to be paid when the goods are sent to the buyer, and another fee needs to be paid when they are returned. Moreover, after the return, Amazon will continue to list the product until the packaging of the product is damaged. Generally speaking, the quality of cross-border packaging is still acceptable, which results in the same item being returned several times or even more than a dozen times due to the problem of incorrect labeling. Overall, once the label is affixed incorrectly, it may cause a loss of tens of thousands of yuan.
