Premium Delivery Eligibility - Has this been updated.
I have just had a look at this. It seems to cover a period of 7 days, not 30 days as before. Is that correct?

I seem to recall there was an announcement about that but can't be ar$ed to look for it. A rare positive move which actually helps sellers.

Hello,
On July 31, 2025, we’ll update Premium Shipping Options programme requirements to focus on your recent shipping performance and give you more flexibility to maintain programme eligibility.
We will:
Reduce the on-time delivery rate requirement from 97% to 92%.
Reduce the performance evaluation period from 30 days to 7 days, specifically between day -14 to day -7 from the current date.
This shorter evaluation period means that your current operational performance, rather than older performance metrics, will determine your programme eligibility.
If any of your performance metrics fall below the thresholds for Premium Shipping Options eligibility, we’ll notify you and share recommendations to improve them. If you continue not to meet the thresholds, your programme eligibility may be revoked.
To help you meet Premium Shipping Options performance requirements, we recommend that you use Shipping Settings Automation (SSA). The tool generates more accurate Prime delivery promises by automatically adjusting your transit times based on carrier, shipping methods and location.
For more information about programme requirements, go to Premium Shipping Options and Premium Shipping Options FAQ.
To view your current performance metrics, go to Premium delivery eligibility.
