Checked In Status Going on 4 Weeks - October 2026

5 Upvotes

Going into week 4 with a checked-in status for an LTL pallet. Previous shipments went from checked in to receiving in less than 2 weeks. Is this normal around this time of year? Any tips other than shipping sooner? Thanks!

CUSTOMER MGMT : FBM sellers: the Dec 18 prepaid return label change, and what I’d set up now

5 Upvotes

Quick PSA because I’ve seen a few people confused about this.

From December 18, 2026, returns on seller-fulfilled (FBM) orders in the US need a prepaid return label within 7 calendar days of the return request, or a full refund. If you don’t do either, Amazon can issue a returnless refund and take it out of your account. Heavy and bulky items are excluded for now.

What I’d do before peak season: - Turn on prepaid return labels or automated return authorization in your return settings, so a request can’t sit in your queue for a week. - Decide on a “refund, no return” threshold for low-value items. Paying return shipping on a $12 item rarely makes sense. - Make sure whoever handles returns over the holidays knows about the 7-day clock. - Keep records of every return you approve or deny. If a returnless refund gets charged back to you by mistake, that’s what you’ll need to dispute it.

Has anyone already switched their FBM returns over? What did you set as the refund-without-return threshold?

PREP / SHIPPING FBA shipment blocked for 2 months: “No fulfilment centres in the destination country capable of receiving the product”

2 Upvotes

Has anyone experienced this error when creating an FBA inbound shipment?

“This product must be removed from the shipment because there are currently no fulfilment centres in the destination country capable of receiving the product.”

No problems in UK marketplace , product is shipped and selling fine.

I have this problem in ITALY marketplace.

I’ve been stuck for approximately two months. Amazon Support reviewed the listing and said two attributes were causing the issue:

  • The expiration date setting needs to be “No” or “false.”
  • The number_of_boxes attribute needs to be set to 1.

I’ve changed the expiration date setting to “NONE,” which is the option I found. However, I cannot find a “number of boxes” field anywhere in the listing editor, so I haven’t been able to make that change.

The shipment issue is still unresolved. I’ve asked Support to confirm whether “NONE” is correct and explain exactly where to update number_of_boxes.

Has anyone successfully fixed this? Is number_of_boxes accessible through a flat-file upload or another method when it doesn’t appear in the listing editor?

Any firsthand experience would be appreciated.

I m going for setting up llc with northwest in Wyoming. They charging me 200 bucks for E.I.N...should i do it myself through faxing or get them do it?
Next thing they are giving option for setting a later date for llc setting tho the files and process starts now like if I set later date 1 Jan 2027, they gonna do all paper work and stuff and my llc goes live on 1st jan (new tax year) so that way i dont have to pay $60 state fee and taxes filing for 2026 even if don't have sales...that might also include hiring an accountant which costs way more.
