Amazon Changes on January 21, 2025

Amazon has made some big changes on January 21st, 2025.  Most notably…

1.  Amazon has eliminated the ability to create an instant FBA shipment.  From now on, you will need to wait 15-60 minutes for all the items to process before you can start with the FBA shipment.

2.  Amazon has eliminated the ability to print the FBA label immediately after the first scan.  All FBA labels must be printed after the listings have been processed by Amazon.  This is for new SKUs only.

On the plus side…

1.  There are fewer split shipments
2.  You can list up to 1500 SKUs for a single shipments (no more 200 SKU max)
3.  There’s no need for 2D barcodes or Excel Files for box contents
4.  The entire listing and FBA shipment process can be completed within ScanLister

While, we understand these changes are going to be frustrating for many people, we are doing our best to provide you with all the solutions for listing and creating FBA shipments.  Keep in mind, these rules apply to all Amazon software listing products.

To comply with Amazon’s new rules, we have provided two different ways of creating an FBA shipment.  Please make sure you are using the latest update for the Mac and Windows version of ScanLister.  If you have any questions please visit our Facebook group.

1) Listing on ScanLister and finishing the FBA shipment directly within ScanLister

2) Listing on ScanLister and finishing the FBA shipment on Seller Central
