Battery compliance update for Fulfilled by Merchant listings
Starting July 28, 2025, you must complete battery safety compliance questions when you create or edit any Fulfilled by Merchant products listings that contain batteries or battery-powered items. This change helps ensure both customer safety and accurate product information.
When you create a listing, you’ll now see the following question:
- Are batteries required?
If you answer yes, you’ll then see the following questions:
- Are batteries included?
- What is the battery cell composition? (Examples: alkaline, lithium-ion)
You can find battery cell composition information on the battery, manufacturer's label, or product packaging. If your battery type isn't listed in List Your Products within Add Products, select other than listed and enter the composition manually.
For more information, go to Dangerous goods required information and documentation (hazmat).

Good morning,
How does this requirement apply to sellers who create ASINs via API, such as SellerCloud, Feedonomics, Celigo, etc.?
Will sellers of products that use coin cell batteries be able to submit Reese's Law compliance applications during the initial ASIN setup process?

I expect this will make things even worse. None of my products are shipped with batteries and I fill in the template correctly, yet Amazon marks some of my returns as HazMat because of batteries. Not looking forward to another problem selling on Amazon.
