Proofs of physical operational business address
HI
I have been asked to verify that I am a sole trader operating from the UK. I had no problem with the passport, driving licence and I do not need to be registered for VAT as I do not have a turnover greater than £85,000 (I so wish!).
However I cannot seem to provide Amazon verification department with proof of physically operating from the UK. I work from home and I have sent them copies of invoices from suppliers and delivery notes from EVRI with my trading name and address on it. I cannot think of anything else to prove that I am operating in the UK. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I am in the same situation, small business from home, sole trader and II really do not know how to prove that I operate from the UK. I sent invoices, council tax bill, letter from the electoral register and bank statement. I think it's down to luck honestly. I can't think of anything else.

Hi CharB,
Send documents as PDFs and there may be a minimum (and maximum) file size... max may be 10mb
I don't know minimum...
Best

Why don't they say this in the first place? Is this a test to see who has more initiative?

I am in the same position, I have sent everything in pdf format but they still want proof of my physical operating address, can someone please help, we will have to stop trading while this is sorted out as we cannot afford to keep buying stock and not receiving any money

Hi Orchid_Accessories,
I sent scans of invoices for packing materials sent to my address, and scans of Proofs of Posting from my local Post Office to show I was operating from this address
Hope that helps

Same issue here, sent accounts, ID for all directors, proof of address. I have spoken to 4 different people from Amazon but get nothing useful from anyone, they tend to just bounce me around until I go full circle and end up with an email from a bot. No idea where to go from here. I use MCF for distribution so Amazon is basically holding my stock and business hostage with no advice on how to fix it.
