Using the drop-down menu, select Change to fulfilled by Amazon.

Once your listing has been created, you are ready to ship to Amazon. From
your dashboard in Amazon Seller Central, navigate to Inventory > Manage
Inventory.

Click to find your Sourcing Expert

Next, you have the option of sending individual products or multiple SKUs.
Simply check the boxes on the left-hand side to select the products destined
for FBA. Navigate to the Action on Selected button and in the drop-down
menu select send/replenish inventory.

You will be prompted to confirm. Double-check your selected products, then

click “Yes, continue”.

Step 2: Select pickup location
Having selected the inventory items to be shipped, the next step is to input
the ship-from address. This is the physical location from which your
shipment will be collected.

It may be your home or residential address, a business address, your freight

forwarder, or a supplier’s warehouse. By default, the most recent shipping
address will be applied, so in the instance, you need to select or add an
alternative address, click ship from another address.

Step 3: Add your prep and labeling details

The following are critical steps in the shipping process. This is where you
need to input the relevant shipping details that Amazon requires including:

Packing details

Prep and labeling requirements

 The quantity you plan to send

To enter the packing type you have two options - individual units or creating
a new packing template. Packing individual items is recommended for one-
off shipments or when shipping multiple SKUs in the same package.

If you plan to ship identical case-packed products each time you create a
new shipping plan, it is worthwhile creating a packing template that you can
refer to later for future shipments.

If you’re creating a new template, then provide the details, including

dimensions, of your package in all fields and click save.
Unless your product is in a restricted category, there are no prep
requirements, and you can proceed to select no prep required. If your
product does fall under a restricted product category, select the category,
and Amazon will provide the additional packaging details you will need for
proper preparation before sending inventory.

For example, fragile products such as glass will need additional

preparations, and you will be required to bubble wrap all individual items.
When it comes to labeling your products, Amazon has different barcode
label requirements for different products. If you sell private label products,
all you need is a UPC, or a manufacturer barcode, printed on your product,
label, or packaging. In most instances, this will suffice.

For select product categories, you will need an Amazon-generated barcode,

known as an FNSKU label, to be placed over the merchant barcode for every
single product.

Similarly, for arbitrage or wholesale Amazon vendors, an FNSKU label will be

necessary to distinguish your FBA inventory from other sellers supplying
identical products. In most cases, Amazon will suggest when an FNSKU
label is required.

FNSKU labels can be printed within Seller Central and applied yourself, or for
a small fee, Amazon can print and label for you. If you are using the UPC
barcode option or printing the FNSKU labels yourself, you can select labeling
by seller.

Step 4: Identity how many units are to be

shipped
Once you have provided the prep and label details, you can enter the number
of units or cartons for shipment. Some products may require you to provide
an expiration date, such as topical or ingestible products.

If you are sending individual units, proceed to enter the number of units and
click Ready to pack.

For case-packed products, enter the number of boxes per shipment and
Amazon will calculate the units per shipping box based on the information
you provided when you created the packing template.

Now that you’ve provided all the relevant information for your shipping plan
details, you can click confirm and proceed to the next step.

Step 5: Send to Amazon

If you have selected individual units, you will be required to fulfill an
additional step to confirm if you will be sending in one or multiple packages.

You will then be prompted to provide the package dimensions.

When you click confirm and continue, Amazon will then validate your SKUs,
calculate shipping fees, and apply the fulfillment center shipping
destinations.

Step 6: Confirm shipping

At this point, you have provided Amazon with all the details they require,
from the SKUs to the quantity and packaging specifications. In this step, you
will confirm details regarding the logistics of your shipment.

You begin by entering your shipping date. This is the date your shipment will
be picked up from the address you supplied in Step 2. If you do not know the
exact collection date, provide an estimate.

The shipping service you select will depend on how your items are packed.
For most Amazon sellers, this would be Small Parcel Delivery (SPD).

Professional sellers sending larger shipments may opt for the Less than
Truckload or the LTL option. This refers to cases or boxes that have been
stacked on pallets and will require specific pallet labels.

Step 7: Review and confirm

Before clicking the Accept charges and confirm, be sure to do one final
review of your shipment, and your shipping fees and select your freight
carrier.
If you choose to select UPS, Amazon-partnered Carrier, the shipping costs
will be provided.

If your cartons are being sent directly from your supplier, through a freight
forwarder or third-party logistics company, or if you would prefer to organize
your own collection, select a non-partnered carrier and use the drop-down
menu to select your carrier.

Once your shipping plan is complete, you will need to provide your tracking
IDs. You have to accept the charges in order to proceed to print your
shipping labels.
One thing to note, when using an Amazon-partnered carrier, you have up to
24 hours to cancel your plan and void all shipping costs.

Step 8: Print your labels

The final step is to print your carton labels and attach them to your
packages, to get them ready for collection.

Once you have accepted the charges and confirmed shipping, you will be
prompted to select print box labels. Selecting your desired print option from
the drop-down menu will open up your labels in a new tab, ready to be
printed.
If you are shipping using an Amazon-partnered carrier, your label will include
the courier consignment. If you selected a non-partnered carrier, this will
need to be obtained and applied to each package.

To meet Amazon requirements and ensure you have a speedy shipment,

follow the prompt to continue to the shipping queue and proceed to enter
your shipment IDs.
Remember to check your shipping queue regularly for updates and the
status of your shipment.

What if my shipment gets assigned to more

than one FBA warehouse?
By default, you may find that your shipping plan is split into multiple
shipments, across multiple fulfillment centers. The fulfillment centers
allocated to your shipment are dependent upon the products you are
shipping and where you are shipping them from.

While this may incur a higher cost of shipping, this is in your best interest to
ensure delivery to your customers meets Amazon Prime Free Two-Day
Shipping.

If this is the case, you will need to ensure each carton has the correct FBA
label so that each product is delivered to the assigned FBA warehouse.

How Much Are Inventory Placement Service

Fees?
If you are opposed to multi-fulfillment center shipments, you do have another
option. You can sign up for the Amazon Inventory Placement Service which
lets you send your inventory to a single fulfillment center or receiving center
where it will be split up and distributed to different fulfillment centers on your
behalf.

However, some categories, restricted products, and oversized items are

exempt from utilizing the service. The destination of receiving or fulfillment
center is still determined by Amazon and a per-item fee applies.
 IPS-fees

Should I choose small parcel delivery (SPD)

or less than truckload (LTL)?
If you are a small to medium seller on Amazon and generally ship standard
items in single cartons or boxes of individually packaged products, the Small
Parcel Delivery (SPD) shipping method is ideal. SPD shipments are typically
sent through UPS, Amazon’s partnered carrier, or an alternate carrier of your
choice.

While the Less Than Truckload (LTL) method is also available as part of
Amazon’s partnered carrier program, it is generally used by advanced sellers
for large volume, pallet shipments with oversized items or items that weigh
 at least 150 pounds. To be eligible for LTL you must have a dock and forklift
to enable the loading of pallet shipments.
