UPC Bar Codes – Everything you Need to Know for Amazon FBA
AMAZON BARCODE TROUBLES
One common issue is when a product’s barcode does not match the product’s listed ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number) in Amazon’s catalog. This can result in the product being delisted or even having the seller’s account suspended.
Another issue is that Amazon requires certain types of barcodes for certain products, such as GTINs (Global Trade Item Numbers) for products in certain categories. If a seller does not have the correct type of barcode for their product, they may not be able to list it on Amazon or may face penalties.
Additionally, some sellers may encounter difficulties with barcode quality, particularly if the barcode is not scannable or is not placed in the correct location on the product packaging. This can result in delays or errors when fulfilling orders.
To avoid these problems, it is important for Amazon sellers to understand Amazon’s barcode requirements and to ensure that their products have the correct barcodes and that they are properly placed and scannable.
