Amazon FBA Labelling and Packaging Guide
Let’s look at all the labeling requirement criteria one by one:
FNSKU Labelling
FNSKU is the way that Amazon recognizes a product as unique to the seller that has sent it to the Amazon fulfillment center.
Amazon has 11 different kinds of FNSKU label specifications available on their menu. Whereby, the seller can choose one of the labels for their product. These different types of labels allow you to identify the type of product being sold. Most used label for Amazon products is “40-up labels 52.5 mm x 29.7 mm on A4”.
Below you can find all the options for printing out the FNSKU labels.
Sold as set Labels:
The units that are supposed to be sold in sets must not be separated and sold individually. Such products are required to be marked & labeled as sets on their outer package to let Amazon know that these products will be sold as one complete unit and not be treated as a single entity.
Suffocation Labels:
Suffocation warning: “To avoid any danger of suffocation, it is essential that you keep all plastic bags away from babies and children. Do not use these bags in cribs, beds, carriages or playpens. These bags are not toys for kids to play with”.
Products that are being protected by polythene bags must meet the following criteria:
Suffocation warnings labels are mandatory for poly bags with 5 inches opening or more.
Warning labels must be placed in a legible font and on the prominent face of the product. You can use the following table to decide the font size of the warning labels.
Shipment Labels:
Shipment labels are labels that are required to be placed on the outer most packaging/cartons of the product to let Amazon know about shipment details. These shipment labels can be generated in sellers system in new shipping plan.
Small Parcel Delivery (SPD)
The SPD is used for small units that are packed in individual boxes and are marked individually on the boxes.
Less Than Truckload/Full Truckload (LTL)
This type of shipment will load your shipment along with products from other vendors too. Also, the entire shipment might have multiple dropping points on the way before dropping off your shipment.
PACKAGING REQUIREMENT:
Loose Products
Each product must be contained in one complete secure package and each package will have unique FNSKU. Amazon refuses to accept products that require Amazon’s help to assemble before dispatch.
Sold as Set:
All the products that are required to be sold as sets must be marked as “do not separate”, “sold as a set” or “this is a set”. These types of products will be received and dispatched as sets.
Poly Bagged Units
The thickness of polybag must be 1.5mils
The bag must be clear
The bag must have a barcode (UPC, EAN, etc.) or X-00 label which can be scanned through the bag.
The bag must be sealed completely.
The polybag must not protrude more than 3″ past the product’s dimensions.
