When Shipping From China To Amazon FBA UK Warehouse, You Need To Pay Attention To The Following Points

‌Product Packaging Requirements‌:

1. Products must be packaged in sturdy hexahedral boxes or bags to ensure that they are not damaged during transportation. For fragile items, sufficient cushioning materials (such as bubble pads, foam plastics, etc.) should be used for packaging to prevent breakage. Liquid products must be well sealed, use leak-proof packaging, and mark the packaging with “this side up” and other signs to prevent leakage.
2. Each product package must be affixed with a clear and readable barcode label so that Amazon warehouse staff can accurately identify the product. The label should be affixed to a flat, dry surface to avoid bending or folding.
3. For products that require special handling (such as fragile items, dangerous goods, etc.), the corresponding warning label should be affixed to the packaging. ‌

Shipping Quantity Requirements

1. When shipping, you must ensure that the actual shipping quantity is consistent with the quantity in the shipping plan. More or less than the planned quantity may cause Amazon warehouses to refuse to accept the goods or incur additional processing fees.
2. If you cannot send all the goods at once, you can ship in batches, but you must ensure that each batch of goods has clear shipping records and tracking information so that Amazon can update the inventory status in a timely manner.

Weight And Size Requirements

1. The weight of a single item generally cannot exceed 50 pounds (about 22.7 kilograms). Items exceeding this weight may require special handling or additional fees.
2. The longest side of a standard-sized item cannot exceed 18 inches (about 45.7 cm), the second longest side cannot exceed 14 inches (about 35.6 cm), and the shortest side cannot exceed 8 inches (about 20.3 cm)1. Items exceeding these dimensions may require special packaging and shipping methods, and may incur additional fees.

Shipping Document Requirements ‌

1. A commercial invoice must be provided when shipping. The invoice should contain a detailed description of the goods, quantity, unit price, total price, information on the shipper and consignee, etc. ‌
2. The invoice must be a formal commercial invoice and comply with international trade regulations ‌

Other considerations

1. Make sure the goods are packed firmly and can withstand long-distance transportation.
2. The declared information must be accurate and comply with the UK’s import restrictions and tax policies.
3. Choose the appropriate mode of transportation and freight forwarder from China to the UK to balance efficiency and cost.
4. By following the above precautions, you can ensure that the goods are delivered to Amazon’s UK FBA warehouse smoothly and reduce the risk of rejection due to non-compliance with requirements.
