- In this video, I show you my updated step-by-step instructions on how to create an Amazon seller account as an international seller that doesn’t live in the USA or isn’t a citizen of the USA.
UPDATE: Hi everyone. Recently, we got hit with what (we believe to be false) copyright claims on our older videos music. Regardless of the legitimacy, we've been going back through those videos & removing the sections with music 🌞 it's a slow process with the editor. We're hoping to restore as many as possible. Thank you 🌞 ecommerce is an ever-changing world, and so we do recommend watching our latest videos regardless. Thank you & we hope you have a wonderful day, wherever you are in the world 🌎
You have no idea how much I've learned from you!
Finally a video explains the steps clearly. Thanks a lot

Useful information! You help to make it all less scary. Thanks.
I have learned a lot and had tried several times to register but in vain and it has just gone through in a matter of minutes. I was told it takes two weeks for verification and you must have a heavy account first.
Thank you so much
Very informative video. Specially the taxation part. Thanks a lot for this. Really enjoyed it. Will download the book.
Thank you so much for all the helpful information!! God Bless you...
Thanks, very helpful!
SOOOOOOOOO HELPFUL VIDEO THANK U GUYS :))
after you open the account and try ti list the item you get banned or suspended, that is forever, as the laws on amazon are getting more strict, so the big question is, what do you do from there, you need to do a video explaining the rules of amazon as a lot of us are getting banned by strict rules created by previous people that made mistakes, it happened to me, what do I do now? need help fast..
Hello Sarah. Great video as usual.. Thank you for all the information :)
Great video as usual Thank you Sarah!
You are seriously the very best
Thank you Sarah its very helpful.
From all the countries in the world I can't say I was surprised to hear the word "Israel" along with current empires. So it means one more Israeli to the list. Thanks for those clips, they are great
you got a thump up and I subscribe as well, besides that you talk like a Kalashnikov , the video was very very good and will help me a lot..great job
Very informative. thank you.
This was very helpful
Great video! Thanks a lot & hi from Singapore 👋😊
Hello! So nice to have subscribers from all over the world :)
Hi Sarah. are all the steps here still applicable? if not, which of these steps/process needs updating?
thanks for this video by the way, very informative.
Thank you for the great video! could you make the same type of video explaining how to open an amazon account in the UK?
What if someone is living outside of those 136 Amazon accepted country's ?
Can I simply make my american address via Malibox Forwarding?
She already mentioned it, Payoneer @ 1:50
Thank you Sarah :)
Very informative.
YOU ARE AN ANGEL.. THANKS A LOT..
When do you use the EIN if Amazon doesn´t asks for it on the interview? Thanks
Thank you, very informative video! Keep it up!
By the way, who will take care of the US custom clearance once your goods arrives in the US?
Hey Sarah! Thanks for the great info! I was wondering how someone living outside the US could import things say from Thailand or China... we would need import/export licence and customs officers and etc right? how do you do it if you do? and where can i find American suppliers. Would be very helpful if you could answer these questions 😄 thanks!! Keep up the great work!
Sarah thanks for the video and ebook
Hey Sarah, thank you for your wonderful tips on Amazon business for international sellers. my question is on requirement number 2. The credit/debit card information we are required to fill in should be our local credit/debit card details or the Payoneer card details?
Hi Sarah, Thanks for the detailed video. I am bit confused ,for international seller why virtual address of USA is required. What if buyer wants to return the faulty item .
Heyyy there i have a question. What if my country it is not in the 136 countries amazon's list? I live in Guatemala ... thankyou
Rick Perez you don’t sell to USA
Thankyou very much!
Thanks!!!
hi sarah... i have a probs!!! on the credit card and billing address page. my country nigeria is not on the list... what do i do?HELP ASAP
What if I'm a US citizen but I live outside the United States? How would I go about doing this?
I m from Serbia and Amazon dont support my local bank account so I need to make US virtual bank account via Payoneer. Do I need some VPN service like TunnelBear to hide my location,even if I have EIN.
Hi Sarah, any advices on my issue? I'm trying to make a amazon individual seller account, but my country isn't in the list. I even got a credit card which I use to buy stuff from Amazon. Any suggestions?
I have the same question too, to Sarah
Did you find any solution for this problem as my country is not listed too
I have the same issue. I tried to get a US address & phone no. Then after I entered my credit card details, it said its not valid since the US address doen't match with the billing address of the credit card. I can't put the correct address as my country can't be found on the dropdown list of countries. Hope there's still a way & someone can help us.
I can help you to open one as I am a US citizen. Reach out to me if you are interested. thanks. mockunasg@gmail.com.

Thanks, it is very detailed. Just a quick question, you can sell on Amazon even you do not have a company, right?
I wonder if it's exactly the same in 2021... May I suggest you create un updated video about what you're discussing here. Thanks.
Great video....
Thank you Ms Sarah
Just subbed! Very informative. Do you know where to get supplies right from the US instead of China?
Thank you for awesome videos, I just don`t receive verification PIN from Amazon, I have tried it many times with different phone numbers as well, can you suggest anything? (I am from Europe)
Cheers!

Giedrius Mockunas Can you help me open a sellers account im from UK its the only thing stopping me from starting my business please help me out
Email me: giedriusmail08@yahoo.com.
Giedrius Mockunas hey, if I ask you to open an account, should credit card details be of yours as well? I mean is it possible to have an amazon account under one name and credit card and other info under different name?
Great 👍 thanks
Hi Sarah, i'm in Australia and have a credit card but it says the credit card information is invalid. I'm not sure what this could be? The card is valid for a couple of years yet
i have tried to open an amazon account the same like you do, i stated my local debit visa card. and my account is suspended because amazon can't charge my debit visa because some reason. I even use my card to buy stuff from Amazon before. how does that happen? do you might know the cause?
hello... awesome video, thanks... i tried to create a pro merchant account but there isn't 'Start a free trial' nobe to click. is there a way around this?
thank you so much
Hi thanks for your videos, very clear and useful. I live outside US but I do have a US banking account, do you recommend me to use my US bank account ?
You did not mention the deposit method requirements. I have opened a Payoneer account but I do not know where I need to include this information.
Thanx dear :)
Thanks for the video. I'm opting for an Individual Account that is free. After all this is for the absolute beginner selling in Amazon for the very first time. What are the disadvantages if any?
very helpful thanks for this. do you have any tips for selling via the fba program from Australia. many thanks
Hi Lisa. It isn't much different than if you live in America, quite honestly! One big difference is that you'll have less sales tax requirements than USA-based sellers which I discussed in a video a couple of weeks ago - which makes it a bonus for you :)
Hi Sarah! I am so glad I found your videos!!! I have been searching for something like for for some time now. and whats more! I am a fellow kiwi currently living in the USA. I have a question. I am on a dependent visa so I am unable to work here till my EAD gets approved. which may take about 6 months or more. In the mean time I would love to sell on amazon but I want to make sure I am doing it legally. Is it possible for me to sell in New Zealand and Australia, basically outside of USA or is there a way I can sell in America legally? would love to get a reply from you! thank you!!
I couldn't understand the #2 requirement... So: they will need a credit card from one of these companies, but they also need you to have a payoneer account? Which are the tasks of my own credit card, and which are the tasks of the payoneer account?
srincrivel1 i believe #2 requirement is for seller to make payment to amazon, whereas payoneer allows amazon to make payment to seller. Hope this clarifies
Hi Sarah,..have you made $10.000 a month?
Christian Cornel
noob sumon
Hello
Thx i will try
very nice
hey, i did all that, I think they chenged a few things, but now they charged me 50$
was this supposed to happen? do you know if I can get my money back or at least stop them from taking any more?
Hi Sarah,Thanks for amazing videos,
They are super informative. I would like to ask, does amazon central charge tax in their $39.99 PM . I recently signed up from UK. Amazon charged me $39.99 plus $8.99 tax.
Where are the links you mentioned? I can't find it "in the description below"
Me too.
I am Also Finding this one
Australia, she said, down under.
Hello dear i am from Oman ,,, if i create account from Oman (as it is supported country from Amazon ) then i am able to buy products in USA please let me know....
if you open an individual account, can you still compete for the buy box? If not, how unrecommended is it to start with an individual account?
I am wondering, when I need to fill the address, should I use my address in Australia or the LLC address?
Do you need to apply for an EIN# to sell on Amazon.com if you are an international seller?
Have you figured this out ?
Sarah when started to get an account with amazon in the place that saids Free trail and in the one I oponed said "Start selling." does that means I get free trail for 30 days?
when you did this video, wasn't necessary you have an EIN number?
Have you figured this out ?
look it up on google, it can be a bit of a process for over seas people ( not US residents).
hi, Is the buyer rating for Kindle ebook store and Amazon store are the same? ( accumulative ) I am a beginner on Amazon. I am considering to start from ebook publishing so as to help to accumulate buyer rating and feedback on amazons store
Hi Sarah, what if your country is not listed on Amazon's 136 list of companies? Is there a work around for this?
No one has an answer for that.
I really hate amazon for this shit
Hey Sarah, very important issue:
How can I cancel the registration process after the 1st step (green checkmark @ `seller agreement`)?
I played around and typed in a random name, and forgot I was logged in with my customer account.
Ultimately, I want to create an account, but with my real data of course. Stupid I know.
Can you help with that please?
so i need two payments account the one that i need to purchase the item for my customer and the one that amazon will send the payment to me?
Hi there, very good information for someone like me, however I am wondering, for the credit card section, do I need to provide the company credit card? or can I provide my personal CC. I am in OZ
Morning, wondering why some people suggests to set up USA contact details for international billing reasons, I have no clue what that is
There is no need to do this. In the past it was necessary, so it's possibly just outdated advice :)
In one of your video you specified that workaround for those who live outside 136 countries approved by amazon can use some services like getting US mailing service and phone number (virtual) from US and use Payoneer for payment and bank account. is this only possible for individual seller account and not for Professional account as you have told?
Or is it outdated even for the individual seller's account since the video was made in 2015?
I kinda understand why do we need credit card in the professional account which is an insurance to amazon to get paid every month regardless of your performance and that's why we don't need credit card in the individual account since we are paying per transaction fees (099$). am I correct?s
the last thing, in the individual account we don't have to fill tax form since we are selling less than 40 unit which makes sense why it's not a problem to get US mailing service and phone number! did answer my questions?m
hello;
i need a clarification about the requi#2: i need a payoneer card to receive payments from AMAZON and a VISA card to pay fees to AMAZON..... can I link both cards to my seller account when setting it up?
please advise
thanks
Hey there, great video. I'm a seller in the US, what do I need in order to open Amazon Uk account?
Sarah it seems that it's possible to work around incase of opening an individual account for those who live outside 136 countries that is not accepted by amazon as you showed in the other video, but from what I know it's not possible to do it for merchant (Professional account) ? is there any way we can do this for a professional account
Hi your country was in the drop down menu what happens when a country listed like Barbados how do I sign up to drop shipping on Amazon?
Hi Sarah, I can’t seem to find a free 30 day trial for amazon, just 39.99 p/m. Is this video/trial out of date? Thanks!
Hi, how do I check if I have filled out a W-8BEN form? I have a seller account set up for $39.99 p/m but cant remember if I did this step or not? Sorry I am very new to all this. Kind Regards, Nat
Do we need to pay any fee beside the 39.99?
I don't have to pay tax if I'm not from USA. ?
I got confused with Payoneer, you can use it to be paid but not for the credit card step during the signup ?
It will cost $39.99 + additional charges on opening a seller account on amazon.
Is it true or not ?
because it is written on credit card screen under plan details.
So you don't have to worry about taxes after this? Or what are the things you need to do next to be okay with your taxes if you live outside the US?
hi Sarah..it's asked me to supply National Id and Bank account scans in the notifications flag icon at the top left corner. Is that normal. I'm from Australia
sarah my problem is my country is not listed so how i can registered
same problem here
I can help you to open one as I am a US citizen. Reach out to me if you are interested. thanks. mockunasg@gmail.com.
Hi Sarah - thank you for another very good vid. Does biz name on Amazon help on product searches or primarily the product description? Stay fresh...
Good question Steven. No it doesn't. Don't worry too much about your name - as long as it sounds professional, it'll be fine :)
Hi Sarah, Ted, thanks for this video. I've gone ahead to follow your ebook and created my Amazon Seller Pro Account. It was not as smooth sailing as your video, as I have been asked for extra documentations such as:
1) A copy of a government provided national ID. Well, Australia does NOT have national IDs?! I just provided a copy of my driver's license. Hopefully it will be accepted.
2)Bank Statement showing the same address I provided and same address displayed on the national ID. Once again, Australian government do not provide national ID.
3) Email address but I already provided an email address.
4) Phone number but I already provided my mobile number.
I now have to wait for my application to be approved in about a week's time which will probably eat away into the free 30 days.
Thank you for the update. Yes, it changed since I created this video unfortunately. It shouldn't eat into your 30 days though since you won't actually have an account until it's been approved :) in the meantime I recommend looking for items so that you're ready to go once it's approved!
Thanks for the reply. Amazon has replied in just hours! My quarterly bank statement was not accepted coz it is not dated inside 60 days?! How weird, seeing it is the latest Bank Statement... Will have to see if I can generate a monthly one or something... will ask them what other document I can provide.
Hi I would like to know if you have been accepted?
Hi Sarah (Princess) Do you know if the Jungle Scout one time fee of $197 or $97 is for lifetime or yearly?
Same here I cannot find the free 30 days trial for Amazon. Please check if this option is still available. Thanks. Like the videos you are creating keep it up :-)
Hello Sarah, Can you make a video on how to open an Amazon China Seller account and start selling on Amazon China Marketplace?
Hi, cheers for the video. I'm an Australian living abroad and have been very interested in starting up, but what should I put down as my address when registering, and can I change it in the future? Again thanks
i tryied using a Payoneer card but they didt exept it and my country is not listed in the 136 countries.Do I use my local bank card and information or is there some other way?this part is really confusing.
