Hello,

I understand that you are facing a temporary deactivation of your Amazon Seller account and the removal of your listings. The email you received from Amazon indicates that this action was taken because you were offering items that may be inauthentic, which is in violation of Section 3 of Amazon’s Business Solutions Agreement.

To address this concern and reactivate your selling account, Amazon has requested specific information for the ASINs listed in the email. The required information includes:

  1. Copies of invoices, receipts, contracts, delivery orders, or authorization letters from your supplier issued in the last 365 days. The quantity of items shown should match your inventory.
  • If you are not the brand owner, provide an authorization letter and a complete set of documentation to prove a valid supply chain.
  • If you are the brand owner, provide a copy of the brand registration certificate and business license or personal identity card.
  • Contact information for your supplier, including their name, phone number, address, email, and website.

You can only send .pdf, .jpg, .png, or .gif files, and these documents must be authentic and unaltered. Amazon may contact your supplier to verify the documents, and they will maintain the confidentiality of your supplier’s contact information. You may remove pricing information, but the rest of the document must be visible. It is also helpful to highlight or circle the ASIN(s) under review for ease of review.

To submit the requested information, you can click the “Appeal” button next to the message on the Performance Notifications page in Seller Central.

If the requested information is not received within 17 days or after two unsuccessful appeals (whichever occurs sooner), your account may be permanently deactivated. Failure to successfully appeal this decision may result in Amazon permanently withholding any payments to you.

During this process, it’s crucial to comply with Amazon’s requirements and provide all necessary information accurately and promptly. Additionally, you can seek help in creating your plan by referring to the resources available in Seller Central Help and reviewing the document requirements for appeals.

While waiting for a response, it’s important to monitor your account’s performance by accessing the Account Health dashboard in Seller Central or through the Amazon Seller app on your iOS or Android device. This will provide insight into how well your account is performing against the required performance metrics and policies.

I understand that you have already purchased the items from Walmart and have provided the receipts as requested. You have also submitted a plan of action (POA) apologizing for the issue and committing to proper supplier authentication. At this point, it’s crucial to remain patient and continue to follow up with Amazon regarding the status of your appeal.

If you have any further questions or concerns, I recommend reaching out to Amazon’s Seller Support for direct assistance. They will be able to provide you with the most up-to-date information and guidance based on your specific situation.

I hope this information helps, and I wish you the best of luck in resolving the issue with your Amazon Seller account.
