Amazon Seller Account Expansion for Non-Residents in 2025
KYC is shifting. INFORM Act enforcement is tighter. What worked last year can trigger reviews today.
If you are outside the U.S., setup choices matter. We help you avoid costly verification traps and keep momentum.
No guesswork. Private plan for your exact facts.
Why non-residents hit KYC walls
- Claiming U.S. operations without proof. If you list a U.S. business address, expect to validate you operate there. Virtual addresses rarely pass.
- Inconsistent records. Amazon compares what you claim in Seller Central against tax interviews, company filings, and banking.
- Early profile changes. Address, bank, and tax edits in the first 90 days often trigger deeper reviews.
- Document issues. Screenshots, partial pages, old dates, or mismatched names slow everything down.
Seller Performance Review: what actually causes delays
Common triggers
- Reactivating dormant accounts
- Upgrading plan to Professional
- Changing the registered address
- Updating bank details early
Submission rules
- Submit full-page, recent, readable documents
- Do not resubmit repeatedly. Wait for Amazon’s review window
- Names and addresses must match exactly
- No screenshots or altered files
The U.S. address reality
If you list a U.S. business address, be ready to verify it. Amazon may require proof that you actually operate there.
Virtual addresses usually cannot provide acceptable documentation, which leads to stalled verification and expensive detours.
Costly myths that create weeks of delay
- “Any U.S. address is fine.”
- “I can change banks and addresses during setup without risk.”
- “Screenshots are acceptable for KYC.”
- “If Amazon asks again, I should upload the same file right away.”
