Iceland as not listed in countries supported
I would love to get some info on that, my business is located in Iceland (which is a part of the EEA - European econmic area), thing is Amazon does not think Iceland is still a country, i´ve checked some old posts on the forum and found that Iceland was in this list (3 years ago)
And they claim that Iceland is not in EU when asked, but i noticed that Norway is in the same situation, non-EU but still in EEA , exactly like Iceland, but Norway is in the list.
Can they not put it manually into functionality, my account can receive Euro currency.
I will set up a third party payment service, but i would love to do this directly, it´s less trouble and less cost.

If it’s not a listed country, you can’t. This affects many other countries.
More countries are slowly being added so check weekly.

What list are you looking at?
The list on the seller central help pages certainly shows Iceland.

Hi,
Thanks for your post.
I’m afraid that you are getting two situations confused. Iceland is an accepted country for registration but it is not an accepted country for payment.
Please see the following help pages:

Countries and Currencies Supported by Amazon for Disbursement
In order to receive payment from Amazon you will need to add a bank account from one of the accepted countries or contact a third party service provider.
I hope this helps.
Thanks,
Jessica

SOLVED:
After sending an email to them with these files attached they sorted this out very quickly.
Here is a copy of what info you will need from the 3rd party payment service (in this case TransferWise)
I just wonder, would i have to do this for remaining accounts, currently i set up UK and DE , one with GBP and the other with EUR, and i still have 3 to assign and i plan to sell in these markets as well.
