How to choose and set up Amazon FBA labeling service
In the Amazon FBA logistics system, labeling is a key link, which directly affects whether the goods can be successfully stored in the Amazon warehouse. It is crucial for sellers to understand how to choose and set up a labeling service. The following will introduce in detail the relevant content about Amazon FBA labeling service.
1. The necessity of labeling services
According to Amazon’s regulations, all products that need to be stored in the warehouse must be labeled. Therefore, whether you are a novice seller or an experienced seller, you need to understand the relevant rules and qualifications.
2. Labeling qualifications
Sellers must ensure that products comply with Amazon’s labeling standards. Specific requirements include:
- Item Condition: Product must be new, used, collectible, or in good condition. If you do not meet the above conditions, you will not be able to enjoy Amazon’s labeling service.
- Product type: Almost any product can be labeled, with no restrictions.
- Prohibited Products: Products prohibited from sale and high-priced goods are not within the scope of labeling services.
Amazon reserves the right to make the final decision and refuse to label products that do not meet the conditions.
3. How to set up Amazon FBA labeling service
For sellers who wish to take advantage of the labeling service provided by Amazon, you can follow these steps to set it up:
- Log in to the Amazon FBA backend.
- Select Settings in the drop-down menu and go to Fulfillment by Amazon.
- In the Optional Services section, click Edit.
- In the Labeler option, select Amazon to enable labeling, or Seller to opt out.
- Finally, click Update to save your settings.
4. Labeling service fees and options
Sellers can choose to use Amazon’s labeling service, which usually costs $0.20 per label. Another option is for the seller to label the items themselves, which is more cost-effective. When choosing, sellers should make appropriate decisions based on their actual circumstances.
5. Tag types
The main tags of Amazon FBA are as follows:
- Product Tag (FNSKU): The primary identifier used to identify and list products.
- Shipping Label: A label affixed to the outer box of the package to facilitate the warehouse to confirm the goods when receiving the goods.
- Pallet labels: Usually used during shipping, labels need to be affixed on all four sides of the pallet.
Overall, choosing the right labeling service and setting it up correctly is a critical step in ensuring smooth warehousing and sales of goods. Sellers should review whether the store meets Amazon’s labeling threshold before operation to achieve efficient logistics management.
