Here are the main benefits:
-
Global Reach: Amazon operates in over 20 countries, giving you access to millions of customers worldwide.
-
FBA’s Global Fulfillment: Amazon handles storage, packing, and shipping of products, even across international borders.

📈 How to Get Started with Amazon FBA International Selling
1. Register for an Amazon Seller Account
To begin selling internationally, you first need to have an active Amazon seller account. If you already have a US-based Amazon seller account, you can easily expand into other countries. Amazon’s Global Selling program allows you to sell in multiple countries with a single account.
2. Choose Your International Marketplaces
Amazon offers international marketplaces where you can list your products. Some of the popular ones include:
-
Amazon US (amazon.com)
-
Amazon UK (amazon.co.uk)
-
Amazon Canada (amazon.ca)
-
Amazon Germany (amazon.de)
-
Amazon Japan (amazon.co.jp)
You can choose which marketplaces to target based on where your product demand is strongest. Additionally, Amazon supports multi-country inventory so that your products can be shipped from fulfillment centers located in different regions.
3. Set Up FBA International Shipping
For international sales, your products must be shipped to the appropriate Amazon FBA fulfillment centers in the countries where you plan to sell. Amazon’s Pan-European FBA program allows you to store inventory across multiple European countries.
Additionally, Amazon’s Global Export Program makes it easy to fulfill international orders without worrying about local inventory.
4. Prepare Your Listings for International Markets
Your product listings will need to be localized for each international marketplace. This includes:
-
Translating your listings: If you’re selling in non-English markets, consider having your listings translated to the local language.
-
Adapting pricing: Adjust your prices based on the local market’s pricing, taxes, and exchange rates.
-
Understanding local regulations: Ensure your products meet the regulatory requirements of the target market (e.g., product certifications, labeling laws).
5. Understand International Fees
Selling internationally through FBA comes with certain fees. These may include:
-
FBA fulfillment fees: Vary by country and are based on the size and weight of your product.
-
Storage fees: International storage fees are charged for holding inventory in Amazon’s fulfillment centers.
-
Referral fees: These are a percentage of your sales price and vary by marketplace and product category.
-
Currency conversion fees: If you sell in a different currency, Amazon will charge a currency conversion fee to transfer your earnings back to your home country.
It’s important to calculate these fees to determine the profitability of selling internationally.
