New seller question about FBA shipment without barcode

Hello,

I'm a new seller here.

I have a question about creating a listing on Amazon and sending a shipment to FBA. My product does not have a barcode, so I applied for a GTIN exemption. Now I want to send the shipment directly from the supplier to the Amazon warehouse. When I try to create the shipment, it does not allow me to select Amazon to take care of labeling. Is there any way to send a product without a barcode to FBA?

Thank you,

Daniel

Hi @Seller_Q57rUMsPzHo8t,

Dominic from Amazon here, no every product needs a label/barcode.

Fulfillment by Amazon uses barcodes to identify and track inventory throughout the fulfillment process. Each item that you send to an Amazon fulfillment center requires a barcode.

There are three kinds of barcodes for identifying products:

  • Manufacturer barcodes (eligible barcodes include UPC, EAN, JAN, and ISBN)
  • Amazon barcodes (such as FNSKU)
  • Transparency authenticity code (brand owner only, may be required to help prevent counterfeit)

Amazon barcodes must be applied to all products that are not tracked using the manufacturer barcode. These products include the following:

  • Products that are not in new condition
  • Products that don’t have a scannable UPC, EAN, JAN, or ISBN barcode
  • Restricted products and dangerous goods
  • Products with an expiration date
  • Consumable or topical products
  • Media products
  • Products for children or infants

You can print Amazon barcodes and apply them to your products yourself, or you can have Amazon print and apply them for a per-item fee. For more information, go to Use an Amazon barcode to track inventory and FBA Label Service.

Please let me know if you have any questions! This page has a ton of info on barcodes: FBA product barcode requirements

Best,

Dominic
