Amazon: Manually Create Listing

Amazon's requirements for creating a listing typically include the following:

  • Product Category Approval: Some product categories, such as automotive, clothing, and jewelry, may require approval from Amazon before you can list items in them. This approval process often involves providing additional information and meeting specific criteria.
  • Brand Registry: If you are selling products with your own brand, you can enroll in Amazon's Brand Registry program to gain more control over your brand's listings and protect against unauthorized use.

If an ASIN cannot be found or "Approval required"  is needed, Delete and Park the listing with the appropriate note on both "No ASIN" or "Approval required"

NOTE: Continue these steps until no more Listings are in "draft" status.

IMPORTANT: It is advisable to confirm similar listings across all Amazon accounts.
