FAQs
1. How are my prices set for expanded offers?
Amazon fulfilled offers are priced with the price rule of same price as the source store, adjusted for taxes and fees. Once enabled, prices automatically adjust to account for estimated fulfilment fees (based on the dimensions, enrolled fulfilment programme and estimated location of inventory), estimated VAT, custom adjustment and currency difference between the source and target stores. Seller-fulfilled offers are priced with the same price as the source store, adjusted for the exchange rate if applicable and VAT. Note: The Build International Listings tool adjusts prices periodically to reflect currency conversion fluctuations in the target stores’ currencies. The frequency of these updates might vary from daily to weekly. These updates will not show changes of less than 1%.
2. What VAT implications does the European Expansion have for my business?
Selling in more than one European country is possible without the high administrative burden of obtaining and managing up to 27 EU VAT registration numbers by opting in for the Union One Stop Shop (OSS). When opting in for OSS, you will report all EU B2C Distance Sales through a single VAT return within your country of establishment, irrespective of the actual ship-from country. Note that this does not remove other obligations for obtaining a VAT registration number, such as holding inventory in other EU countries. Always consult your accountant to understand what requirements may apply. For support, check out VAT services on Amazon – an end-to-end tax compliance solution that helps you manage your VAT registrations, filings and returns.
3. How is my source store selected for expansion?
- If you currently sell in only one store in Europe, that will serve as your source store.
- If you are selling in multiple stores in Europe, we will select the one in which you have the most offers as your source store.
- If you are selling in multiple stores in Europe and a connection in the Build International Listings (BIL) tool exists, we will keep the defined source store from BIL.
4. How will my listings be translated?
All translations and creation of product detail pages in the target store will be attempted via the Build International Listings (BIL) tool. Translations can be adjusted after the successful expansion to selected European stores.
5. What else do I need to do after clicking on "Start Expansion"?
For Amazon fulfilled listings, no further action is required. Listings in the target store will become active once the expansion process is complete.
For seller-fulfilled listings, created listings will be inactive and your account in target store will be set to holiday mode. You will be able to activate your seller-fulfilled listings directly on the European Expansion Accelerator page after you review your account settings, listings and pricing, and shipping settings and templates in the target store.
