I recently had to re-verify my VAT number / "Business Information" with Amazon, as I had originally input my business name in the name field, however as a sole proprietor, my DE VAT number was registered in my legal name.
I updated this and the VAT number and information is updated and verified - this is great news!
Unfortunately, this threw a spanner in the mix with my "Primary Contact Information" under KYC found here; https://sellercentral.amazon.de/sw/SSR/BusinessKYCInfo/spaDashboard
I submitted my passport and a bank statement and eventually this was verified after a few attempts (I believe the original picture of my passport wasn't clear enough).
I then got an email from Amazon stating
"We have good news! Your payment account ‘Sell on Amazon’ has been activated. We will get in touch with you if we need further information"
So, great news again! I thought I'm all set up!
I then received an email asking for some further business information;
"[Action required] Information required for your ‘Sell on Amazon’ payment account"
The email outlines that Amazon would like me to upload a document from the last 180 days, such as a copy of an advance VAT return, or commercial register letter. That's no problem at all, I have these bits of paperwork ready to provide.
I follow the link to provide these new documents (once again, at https://sellercentral.amazon.de/sw/SSR/BusinessKYCInfo/spaDashboard) to submit them. However now, I am shown that my seller verification has returned to an error state, telling me "The information entered does not match the document submitted. Please update the information provided and resubmit."
I've checked it over and over, and the information is an exact match, my bank statement is the correct format and features my name and address, but I keep getting stuck in this loop - is this a machine error?
I would highly appreciate any insight on this matter!
