Selling on AmazonHow to Register as an Amazon Seller: A Simple Starting Guide
Prepare your account, first product and fulfillment method, with practical steps for sourcing from China.
Choose your marketplace
Decide whether to start with Amazon Saudi Arabia or the US marketplace. Use the official seller website for that market because requirements and fees vary. Your choice also affects packaging language, product preparation and shipping.
Prepare your information
Have your email, phone number, identification, business information and bank details ready. The registration flow may request address evidence, payment details and additional documents. Confirm the licensing requirements for your business activity and keep names and addresses consistent.
Register and complete verification
Start registration on the official seller website. Enter your business and contact information, payment details and store name. Follow the registration prompts and submit clear, complete documents. Amazon may request additional verification or a video call. Monitor messages until the review is complete.
Prepare your first product
Check product eligibility and any required category approvals before purchasing substantial inventory. Study comparable products and prepare accurate photographs and descriptions. For China sourcing, approve a sample and define materials, dimensions and packaging in writing. Include inspection, shipping and selling costs in your pricing calculation.
Choose a fulfillment method
You can fulfill orders yourself or use a suitable Amazon service. With FBA, you send inventory to Amazon fulfillment centers and Amazon fulfills orders under its service terms. Follow your account's shipment plan and preparation, packaging and labeling instructions. Review current fees.
Start with a manageable quantity
Choose an initial quantity you can assess through sales and customer feedback. Canton Falcon can assist with supplier sourcing, samples, inspection and shipment preparation in China. Send your product type, quantity and destination market through the request form.
