What’s New?
See our Inventory File Comparison Chart below to determine which new attributes you must provide when you submit the new inventory file.
Why should I upgrade?
Upgrading to the new product feed template will allow you to use recommended browse nodes and product attributes that will improve the customer search and browse experience and ultimately help customers find products more easily on Amazon.co.uk.

When should I upgrade?
Starting from 1 May 2013, the current feed template will no longer be accepted. As a result, sellers must be using the new inventory file by that time.
How do I upgrade?
If you currently use:
Do I have to reload my entire inventory?
Although not required, we recommend you move existing product listings over to the new template in order to take advantage of the new browse and search refinements.
How can I test my upgraded feed?
We recommend uploading only a few items as you familiarize yourself with the new feed. You may also set the Release Dates of you product listing one year into the future, to prevent your offers from appearing on Amazon.co.uk, while you try the new feed.
Does this affect other categories?
No, this upgrade is for Shoes, Handbags, and Shoe Accessories. It does not affect other categories.
Who do I contact for help?
Contact Seller Support for assistance.
