To sell on Amazon, you must adhere to our performance metrics and policies. Failure to do so may lead to the temporary deactivation of your account, removal of listings, or limit your use of the Merchant Fulfilled Network (MFN).
If your account has been deactivated or your listings have been removed, you can appeal for their reinstatement by following the steps below. If you believe your deactivation is an error, please follow the instructions within the page to provide an explanation.
