GTIN Exemption Brand Approval
I was recently approved as a brand, does this mean I am exempted to sell in the clothing category without providing a product ID, or do I still have to file or GTIN exemption? In addition, when i press the hyperlink that leads to GTIN Exemption page, it says error. I tried it from a laptop too. No avail.

Unfortunately, you still need a GTIN exemption even if you are on Brand Registry.
But its really easy now. Have you tried just creating a product "not sold on Amazon" and indicating that you do not have a product ID?

Hello @Seller_mitYZE4dLh4Zu,
My name is Dougal from the Community Manager Team and I would be happy to assist with your GTIN exemption question. I did see that you had a GTIN exception approved the day after posting this. Was the issue solved or do you still need assistance?
In the interim and for any other Seller's that review this post, you may not be able to move forward with a GTIN exemption because the category may not allow exemptions. The best way to check is the Product ID (GTIN) requirements by category help page. This page provides a list of categories, IF the category allows exemptions and if it does, has a link on the process to request that exemption for each category.
Please let me know if you need additional support.
Best, Dougal
