Remote Fulfillment with FBA
Amazon is now auto-enrolling current FBA customers into this. As Amazon never does anything to benefit third-party sellers, this must be increased profit for Amazon.
Has anyone used this service before, and can you advise on how the VAT is handled? Furthermore, I am guessing it involves having to send more stock into Amazon's warehouse?

I've had this notification too, Not sure what it involves on our side of things regarding all the overseas rules and regulations. A little clarity from Amazon would be really helpful.

I believe but could be wrong that there are tax implications. I switched mine off when Brexit happened as I didn't want all the hassle and expense.
I prefer to use "Allow Amazon to buy my products". This way I have no worries about GDPR (or whatever it's called) or vat or returns. Amazon does all that.

If they ship our stuff abroad it will be rejected at the border.
@mods if you have a minute can you tell us how to turn this off?

We have had stock end up in an EU warehouse before, I think its from an UK FBA order sent to the EU and the buyer returns it, it doesn't come back to a UK Amazon warehouse but instead goes to an EU one.
I had to do a disposal request to stop the storage fees.
