Amazon FBA Inventory Reimbursement 2026: What Changed and How to Recover What Amazon Owes You

Amazon FBA inventory reimbursement dispute image showing a cardboard FBA box with a glowing digital receipt reducing reimbursement from selling price to manufacturing cost.
Amazon’s FBA inventory reimbursement policy changed fundamentally on March 10, 2025. Most FBA sellers recover significantly less money than Amazon owes them. They have not updated their cost documentation to match the new rules. For inventory lost or damaged in Amazon’s fulfillment centers before a customer order, Amazon now reimburses at manufacturing cost — not selling price. A product you sell for $50 that cost you $12 to source now generates a $12 reimbursement. For inventory lost or damaged after a customer places an order, Amazon still reimburses the sale price minus applicable fees. This portion of the FBA reimbursement policy did not change. This guide explains what changed, how Amazon calculates FBA reimbursements in 2026, the nine claim categories, what documentation Amazon requires, and what legal options exist when Amazon denies or underpays valid claims.
Quick definition: Amazon FBA inventory reimbursement is the compensation Amazon pays FBA sellers when inventory is lost, damaged, destroyed, or mishandled while under Amazon’s control. Effective March 10, 2025, Amazon reimburses FBA inventory lost or damaged before a customer order at manufacturing cost. This is your sourcing cost from a manufacturer, wholesaler, or reseller, excluding shipping, handling, and customs duties. The claim window is 60 days. Sellers who do not submit their own manufacturing cost data receive Amazon’s estimate, which is consistently lower.

What Changed in Amazon’s FBA Reimbursement Policy?

Amazon announced two significant changes to its FBA inventory reimbursement policy in late 2024, both of which took full effect in 2025. Both are confirmed in SPS Commerce’s verified 2026 reimbursement policy breakdown. Understanding both changes is the starting point for recovering what Amazon owes you.

Change 1: Reimbursement shifted from selling price to manufacturing cost (effective March 10, 2025)

Before March 10, 2025, Amazon reimbursed lost and damaged FBA inventory at or near the item’s retail selling price. A $50 product received a reimbursement close to $50. That changed on March 10, 2025. After March 10, 2025, Amazon reimburses FBA inventory lost or damaged before a customer order at manufacturing cost — what you paid to source it. According to Amazon’s official policy announcement, manufacturing cost “means your cost to source a product from a manufacturer, wholesaler, reseller, or produce the item if you are the manufacturer. The same $50 product now generates an FBA reimbursement at its manufacturing cost. For a wholesale seller, that might be $12 to $15. Sellers report reimbursement amounts dropping 50 to 75% on average.

Change 2: Claim window reduced from 18 months to 60 days (effective October 23, 2024)

Before October 23, 2024, sellers had 18 months to file FBA reimbursement claims. Effective October 23, 2024, that window narrowed to 60 days. Amazon’s stated reason is that the automated reimbursement system now resolves more cases proactively. In practice, a seller who does not monitor their reimbursement reports monthly will miss valid claims permanently. There is no extension process. Amazon does not reopen expired claims.

What did not change

For inventory lost or damaged after a customer places an order, Amazon still reimburses at the original sale price minus applicable fees. The manufacturing cost calculation applies only to pre-order losses — inventory in Amazon’s fulfillment centers before any customer order exists.

How Does Amazon Calculate FBA Reimbursements in 2026?

Amazon uses two distinct calculation methods depending on when the inventory loss or damage occurred. Understanding which method applies to each claim is the foundation of an effective FBA reimbursement strategy.
When the loss occursReimbursement basisExample: $50 retail item, $12 manufacturing cost
Before a customer places an order (lost or damaged in storage, during inbound, during removal)Manufacturing cost — what you paid to source the item, excluding shipping and duties$12 reimbursement
After a customer places an order (lost or damaged during fulfillment or delivery to buyer)Sale price minus applicable Amazon feesApproximately $35 to $38 depending on category fees

What happens if you do not submit your manufacturing cost?

If you do not submit your own manufacturing cost data through the IDR portal, Amazon uses its own estimate. Amazon’s estimate is based on comparable products from its catalog, other sellers’ listings, and wholesale channel data. Amazon’s internal estimates are consistently lower than actual manufacturing costs. A seller with a $12 actual manufacturing cost who submits no documentation may receive $6 to $8 from Amazon’s estimate. Submitting your own manufacturing cost data before claims are generated ensures FBA reimbursement at your actual cost.

What Counts as Manufacturing Cost Under Amazon’s Definition?

Amazon’s definition of manufacturing cost is specific and narrower than most sellers initially assume. What is included — and excluded — determines whether your submitted cost data will be accepted.

What Amazon includes in manufacturing cost

Manufacturing cost includes your per-unit cost to source the product from a manufacturer, wholesaler, or reseller. For private label sellers, manufacturing cost is the per-unit cost of production. For wholesale sellers, it is the per-unit wholesale purchase price from your supplier.

What Amazon explicitly excludes

Amazon’s policy explicitly excludes inbound shipping costs, handling and prep costs, customs duties and import fees from the FBA reimbursement calculation. This is a significant exclusion for importers. A seller who purchases products at $10 per unit but pays $3 in ocean freight and $1 in customs duties has a $14 total landed cost. Amazon’s FBA reimbursement basis is $10. The additional costs that form your true landed cost are not recoverable through FBA reimbursements.

Why this matters most for high-margin products

The manufacturing cost change hits high-margin products hardest — where the gap between manufacturing cost and retail price is largest. A private label seller who sources a product for $8 and sells it for $45 used to receive close to $45 for each lost unit. Under the current policy, the FBA reimbursement is $8. For sellers with large FBA inventory positions in high-margin categories, the cumulative impact across even a small percentage of lost or damaged units is material. Industry analysis suggests 1 to 3% of FBA inventory experiences reimbursable issues annually. A seller with $500,000 of FBA inventory at cost can expect $5,000 to $15,000 in annual reimbursement exposure.

How Do You Submit Your Manufacturing Cost to Amazon?

Submitting your own manufacturing cost data — rather than accepting Amazon’s estimate — is the most important action FBA sellers can take. Amazon provides a specific portal for this purpose.

The Inventory Defect and Reimbursement portal

The IDR portal is where sellers manage manufacturing cost data and review FBA reimbursement claims. Access it through Seller Central → Reports → Fulfillment → Inventory Defect and Reimbursement. Navigate to the Manage Your Manufacturing Cost page and enter per-unit manufacturing costs for each active ASIN. You can enter costs manually or upload a bulk file for large catalogs.

What happens if you leave cost fields empty?

Cost fields that are missing or zeroed out default to Amazon’s internal estimate. Amazon’s estimate is significantly lower than actual manufacturing cost for most ASINs. Go to Inventory → Manage All Inventory and enter the accurate per-unit manufacturing cost for every active SKU. Missing or zeroed-out cost fields default FBA reimbursements to near-zero in some cases. Prioritize your highest-volume and highest-cost ASINs first, then work through your entire catalog.

What documentation supports your submitted cost?

Amazon may request documentation to verify your submitted manufacturing costs. A supplier invoice showing the per-unit purchase price from the manufacturer, wholesaler, or reseller is the required documentation. The invoice must identify the specific product by name, model number, or UPC, and show the per-unit cost. Convert invoices showing a bulk purchase price to a per-unit cost before submitting. Submit cost documentation within 60 days of each claim. Without documentation, Amazon uses its internal estimate.

What Are the Nine FBA Reimbursement Claim Categories?

Amazon’s FBA reimbursement policy covers nine distinct categories of inventory loss or fulfillment error. Each category has specific eligibility requirements, documentation standards, and filing procedures. Understanding which category applies to each inventory discrepancy determines the correct filing approach.
  1. Lost inventory in fulfillment centers: Inventory that cannot be located in Amazon’s fulfillment network after a reasonable search period. This is the most common FBA inventory reimbursement category and the one most affected by the manufacturing cost change. Amazon provides automatic reimbursements for many lost-in-warehouse cases, but not all qualify.
  2. Damaged inventory during storage or handling: Products damaged by Amazon’s warehouse staff, equipment, or internal transfer processes. Covers damage during storage, and during picking and packing operations before shipment.
  3. Fee overcharges: Cases where Amazon charged incorrect FBA storage fees, fulfillment fees, referral fees, or other charges that do not match your product’s actual specifications. Fee overcharge claims require comparing charged fees against expected fees based on your product’s size tier and weight.
  4. Refund errors: Cases where Amazon issued a refund to a buyer without receiving the returned item, or processed a refund for more than the original purchase price. The seller absorbs the refund but never receives the item back.
  5. Inbound shipment and missing inbounds: Inventory shipped to Amazon’s fulfillment centers that was missing upon arrival and not accounted for in the receiving process. Claims require shipment documentation showing quantity sent versus quantity received.
  6. Canceled shipments: FBA shipments that were canceled but still resulted in charges or inventory losses. Rare but recoverable with proper documentation.
  7. Lost in transit to buyer: Items confirmed as lost during shipping from an Amazon fulfillment center to the customer. This category uses the post-order calculation — sale price minus applicable fees.
  8. Customer return claims: Returned items that were not restocked properly, went missing after customer return, or were incorrectly classified as unsellable. Monitor return reports against restock confirmations to identify claims in this category.
  9. Multi-Channel Fulfillment (MCF) order issues: Lost or damaged inventory for non-Amazon channel orders fulfilled through Amazon’s network. Marketplace-specific reimbursement caps apply to MCF orders — introduced in August 2024 and still in effect in 2026.

What Is the 60-Day Claim Window and When Does It Start?

The 60-day claim window is the most operationally critical element of the 2026 FBA inventory reimbursement process. Miss it and the claim is gone permanently.

When does the 60-day clock start?

The 60-day window starts from the date the reimbursable event occurred — not the date you discovered the discrepancy. For lost inventory in fulfillment centers, the clock starts when Amazon’s system records the inventory as lost. For inbound shipment discrepancies, the clock starts when Amazon marks the shipment as closed or reconciled. For customer return claims, the clock starts when Amazon processes the return. Inventory discrepancies are not always visible in Seller Central immediately. A unit lost during an internal warehouse transfer may not appear in your inventory reconciliation report for several weeks. That leaves less than 30 days to identify and file the claim.

Why monthly monitoring is no longer optional

Under the previous 18-month window, quarterly inventory audits were adequate to catch most reimbursable events before the filing deadline. Under the 60-day window, monthly reconciliation is the minimum frequency required to avoid missing valid claims. Monthly reconciliation of your Inventory Reconciliation Report, Return Report, and Reimbursement Report against your shipment records identifies discrepancies within the filing window before FBA reimbursement claims expire.

Which Claims Are Automatic and Which Require Manual Filing?

Amazon’s automated reimbursement system resolves a portion of FBA inventory reimbursement claims without requiring seller action. Understanding which categories are automatic and which require manual filing prevents missed claims and duplicate submissions.

What Amazon reimburses automatically

Amazon now provides automatic reimbursements for items identified as lost in its fulfillment centers through its internal inventory tracking system. When Amazon’s system cannot locate inventory after a reasonable search, it generates an automatic FBA reimbursement. The seller does not need to open a case. These automatic FBA reimbursements appear in your Reimbursement Report in Seller Central. Amazon calculates these at its own manufacturing cost estimate — not your submitted cost — unless you already entered accurate cost data in the IDR portal before the reimbursement ran.

What requires manual filing

Manual FBA reimbursement claims are required for: removal order claims, inbound shipment discrepancies, fee overcharge claims, refund errors, some customer return issues, and MCF order discrepancies. These categories do not trigger automatic FBA reimbursements. If you do not identify the discrepancy and file a manual claim within the 60-day window, the claim expires.

The risk of relying on automatic reimbursements

Automatic reimbursements give sellers a false sense of security. Amazon’s automated system does not catch every reimbursable event. Some lost inventory cases, inbound shortages, and return processing errors require manual identification and filing. Sellers who assume the automated system catches everything regularly leave valid FBA reimbursement claims uncollected. Monthly reconciliation remains essential even for accounts that receive automatic FBA reimbursements regularly.

What Documentation Does Amazon Require for Each Claim Type?

Documentation requirements vary by claim category. Incomplete or mismatched documentation is the most common reason Amazon denies valid FBA reimbursement claims.

Inbound shipment claims

For inbound shipment discrepancies, Amazon requires your Amazon Shipment ID, proof of inventory ownership — supplier invoices, purchase receipts, or manufacturer-signed packing slips — and delivery documentation. For LTL and FTL shipments, provide the carrier’s bill of lading showing the box count and shipment weight at carrier pickup — stamped and signed by Amazon’s fulfillment center. For small-parcel shipments, active tracking identifiers for all packages are required.

Lost inventory and damaged inventory claims

For lost and damaged FBA inventory claims, provide the FNSKU or ASIN, the quantity claimed, the transaction ID from your inventory reconciliation report, and supplier invoices showing the manufacturing cost. The invoice must clearly identify the product and show the per-unit cost. Include the specific date range and reconciliation data showing the discrepancy. Include exact dates, order numbers, and amounts in claim descriptions. Vague claims fail at a higher rate than data-backed claims with transaction IDs and timestamps.

Customer return claims

For customer return claims, provide the original order ID, the return request ID, confirmation from the Return Report, and inventory reconciliation data showing the returned unit never appeared in sellable or unsellable inventory. Screenshots from Seller Central showing the discrepancy between the return record and the inventory record support customer return claims.

Why Do FBA Reimbursement Claims Get Denied or Underpaid?

Most FBA inventory reimbursement claim failures in 2026 come from five avoidable errors — not from the underlying inventory loss being illegitimate.

Error 1: No manufacturing cost data submitted

Sellers who have not entered manufacturing cost data in the IDR portal get Amazon’s internal estimate on every automatic FBA reimbursement. Amazon’s estimates are consistently lower than actual manufacturing costs for most product categories. The gap is invisible unless you calculate the correct reimbursement independently and compare it against what was received. This is not a claim denial — it is an underpayment that never gets flagged. The FBA reimbursement still appears in the Reimbursement Report, just at a lower amount.

Error 2: Filing after the 60-day window

Claims filed outside the 60-day window are automatically rejected regardless of the validity of the underlying loss. There is no appeal process for expired claims. Monthly reconciliation is the only protection against this error.

Error 3: Missing or mismatched invoice documentation

Claims supported by invoices that do not match the product — wrong product name, missing per-unit cost breakdown, or invoice addressed to a different entity — are denied. Amazon verifies that the documentation matches the claimed product and cost. Screenshots of purchase history from retail websites, informal supplier quotes, and receipts without product-level detail all fail this verification process. Clean supplier invoices showing the product name, ASIN or model number, quantity, and per-unit cost are the most reliable documentation for FBA reimbursement claims.

Error 4: Vague claim descriptions

Cases opened with vague descriptions — “my inventory is missing” or “I am owed a reimbursement” without specific transaction data — are consistently rejected. Multiple follow-ups risk the 60-day deadline. Every FBA reimbursement claim description should include the specific ASIN or FNSKU, the quantity affected, the date the discrepancy was identified, and the transaction ID from the report.

Error 5: Claiming items that are ineligible

Several item categories are ineligible for FBA inventory reimbursement regardless of the circumstances of the loss. Items pending disposal or already disposed of at the seller’s request are not eligible. Items damaged by customers — as opposed to damaged by Amazon — are not eligible. Items not registered in FBA at the time of the loss are not eligible. Items where the quantity shipped did not match the shipping plan are not eligible for the plan-versus-actual discrepancy. Filing claims for ineligible items wastes time and risks flagging the account for excessive claim activity.

How Do You File an FBA Reimbursement Claim Step by Step?

Filing an effective FBA inventory reimbursement claim requires the right report, the right documentation, and specific claim language. Here is the process for the most common claim type — lost inventory in fulfillment centers.

Step 1: Run the Inventory Reconciliation Report

Go to Reports → Fulfillment → Inventory Reconciliation in Seller Central. Download the report for the past 90 days. The report shows every inventory movement — units received, sold, returned, removed, and adjusted. Cross-reference the starting quantity plus units received against the ending quantity plus units sold, removed, and returned. Any unexplained negative variance is a potential FBA inventory reimbursement claim. Note the FNSKU, the quantity discrepancy, and the date range where the discrepancy appears.

Step 2: Check your Reimbursement Report for existing payments

Before filing a claim, check whether Amazon already generated an automatic FBA reimbursement for the discrepancy you identified. Go to Reports → Payments → Transaction View and filter for “other” transaction types — or go directly to the FBA Reimbursements report to check for existing payments. If Amazon already processed a FBA reimbursement for the discrepancy — even at a lower amount — a duplicate claim will be rejected. If the automatic FBA reimbursement is lower than your documented manufacturing cost, document the gap and proceed with a supplemental claim supported by your cost documentation.

Step 3: Gather your documentation

Before opening the case, assemble the FNSKU or ASIN, the quantity lost or damaged, the transaction ID from the Inventory Reconciliation Report, and your supplier invoice showing the per-unit manufacturing cost. Verify that the invoice clearly identifies the product and shows a per-unit cost.

Step 4: Open a case through Seller Central

Go to Seller Central → Help → Get Support → Selling on Amazon → FBA Issue → Inventory or Reimbursement. Select the specific claim category. In the case description, include the exact FNSKU, the quantity affected, the date range of the discrepancy, the transaction ID, and the specific FBA reimbursement amount you are requesting based on your manufacturing cost documentation. Attach your supplier invoice. Note the case ID and submission date. Both matter for tracking and follow-up.

Step 5: Track and follow up

Amazon typically responds to FBA inventory reimbursement cases within 3 to 7 business days. Track every open case by case ID, ASIN, quantity claimed, and date submitted. If Amazon requests additional documentation, respond within the time window specified. Failure to respond closes the case. If Amazon denies the FBA reimbursement claim for a factually incorrect reason, reopen the case with corrected documentation and a specific correction of the stated denial reason.
For individual denied FBA inventory reimbursement claims, the standard escalation path is reopening the case with corrected documentation and, if necessary, escalating to Seller Central’s Account Health support team. When the issue is systematic — Amazon repeatedly denying well-documented FBA inventory reimbursement claims across multiple ASINs — legal escalation provides a direct path that the standard process cannot.

Pre-arbitration demand letter for systematic reimbursement denials

When Amazon is systematically denying well-documented FBA inventory reimbursement claims and the aggregate underpayment is material, a pre-arbitration demand letter routes the dispute to a formal legal review. Amazon’s outside legal team must evaluate the cost and risk of defending a formal AAA arbitration. That calculation frequently produces a FBA reimbursement payment that the internal support process could not achieve. Read our full guide on our pre-arbitration demand letter page.

AAA arbitration for material reimbursement disputes

When pre-arbitration demand letters do not produce resolution and the aggregate FBA inventory reimbursement amount is large enough to justify formal AAA arbitration, we file a formal Demand for Arbitration. An arbitrator can order Amazon to pay FBA reimbursement amounts Amazon’s internal process denied. AAA arbitration has produced favorable outcomes for sellers in FBA inventory loss cases where documentation was strong and Amazon’s reimbursement calculation was inconsistent with the BSA. Read our full guide on our arbitration against Amazon page.

Reimbursement claims in conjunction with account suspension

When a seller’s account is suspended and FBA inventory reimbursements are frozen alongside selling privileges and disbursements, FBA reimbursement recovery becomes part of a broader fund recovery proceeding. Our Amazon withheld funds team handles fund recovery — including frozen reimbursements — through pre-arbitration demand letters and formal AAA arbitration when necessary, pursuing all withheld amounts as part of a single coordinated legal strategy.

Frequently Asked Questions About Amazon FBA Inventory Reimbursement

When did Amazon change FBA reimbursements from selling price to manufacturing cost?

Amazon announced the change in late 2024 and it took full effect on March 10, 2025. For inventory lost or damaged before a customer places an order, Amazon now reimburses at manufacturing cost. That is your sourcing cost from a manufacturer, wholesaler, or reseller, excluding shipping, handling, and customs duties. This is the core FBA inventory reimbursement change in 2025. For inventory lost or damaged after a customer places an order, Amazon reimburses the sale price minus applicable fees. That calculation is unchanged.

How long do I have to file an FBA reimbursement claim?

60 days from the date the reimbursable event occurred. This window took effect October 23, 2024, replacing the previous 18-month window. The 60-day clock starts when Amazon’s system records the loss or damage — not the date you discover the discrepancy. There is no extension process and no appeal for expired claims. Monthly reconciliation is the minimum monitoring frequency required to avoid missing valid claims before the deadline.

Does Amazon automatically reimburse all lost FBA inventory?

No. Amazon now provides automatic FBA reimbursements for some lost inventory cases, but not all reimbursable events qualify for automatic processing. Removal order claims, inbound shipment discrepancies, fee overcharges, refund errors, and some customer return issues all require manual FBA reimbursement claims. Sellers who assume automatic FBA reimbursements are catching everything regularly miss valid claims. Monthly reconciliation remains essential even for accounts that receive automatic FBA reimbursements.

What if I disagree with Amazon’s manufacturing cost estimate?

Submit your own manufacturing cost data through the IDR portal before claims are generated. Go to Seller Central → Reports → Fulfillment → Inventory Defect and Reimbursement → Manage Your Manufacturing Cost. Enter your per-unit sourcing cost for each ASIN. Support your submitted cost with supplier invoices showing the product name and per-unit cost. These are the inputs that determine your FBA reimbursement amount. Once your cost data is submitted, Amazon uses it for FBA reimbursement calculations rather than its internal estimate. If Amazon already generated a FBA reimbursement at its lower estimate and you have documentation of a higher actual manufacturing cost, open a case through Seller Central with the cost documentation.

Can I file FBA reimbursement claims if my account is suspended?

Amazon’s policy requires your selling account to be in normal status when you file a claim for a lost or damaged item. A suspended account may not be able to file new FBA reimbursement claims through the standard process. FBA reimbursement amounts already owed before the suspension may be recoverable as part of a broader withheld funds recovery proceeding. Our team pursues all withheld amounts, including frozen FBA reimbursements, as part of a coordinated legal strategy.

What is the Inventory Defect and Reimbursement portal?

The IDR portal is the Seller Central tool where sellers review their FBA reimbursement history, manage manufacturing cost data, and track open claims. Access it through Seller Central → Reports → Fulfillment. Access it through Seller Central → Reports → Fulfillment → Inventory Defect and Reimbursement. The Manage Your Manufacturing Cost page is where you enter per-unit manufacturing costs for each ASIN. Sellers who have not yet visited this page almost certainly receive Amazon’s lower internal estimates on every automatic FBA reimbursement — rather than their actual manufacturing cost.

How DAM Law Firm Can Help With FBA Reimbursement Disputes

DAM Law Firm represents Amazon sellers when FBA inventory reimbursement disputes exceed what the standard Seller Central process can resolve — systematic reimbursement denials on well-documented claims, material aggregate underpayments, and frozen reimbursements as part of an account suspension.

Pre-arbitration demand letters for systematic reimbursement denials

When Amazon is systematically denying or underpaying well-documented FBA inventory reimbursement claims and the aggregate amount is material, we send a pre-arbitration demand letter to Amazon’s outside legal counsel. Attorney-level correspondence routes the dispute out of the automated support system and into a formal legal review. This approach produces FBA reimbursement payments in cases where repeated support tickets and case escalations could not. See our pre-arbitration demand letter guide for the full process.

AAA arbitration for material FBA inventory disputes

When pre-arbitration demand letters do not produce resolution and the aggregate reimbursement dispute is large enough to justify formal AAA arbitration, we file a formal Demand for Arbitration under the BSA’s dispute resolution provisions. An arbitrator can order Amazon to pay FBA reimbursement amounts Amazon’s internal process denied. We pursue FBA inventory reimbursement disputes through AAA arbitration when documentation of loss is strong, the amount is material, and the internal process has been exhausted. See our Amazon arbitration page for the full process.

Reimbursement recovery as part of withheld funds cases

When a seller’s account is suspended and FBA inventory reimbursements are frozen alongside selling privileges and disbursements, we handle FBA reimbursement recovery as part of a broader withheld funds proceeding. We pursue all withheld amounts — pending disbursements, frozen reimbursements, and FBA inventory reimbursements owed before the suspension — in a single coordinated legal strategy. See our Amazon withheld funds page and our Amazon account suspensions page.
