- Inauthentic Products
- Used Sold as New Complaints
- Restricted or Unsafe Products
- Intellectual Property Infringement
- Duplicate Listings
- Price Gouging
Inauthentic Products
Listings are flagged when Amazon questions the authenticity of your inventory. You must provide valid documentation from legitimate suppliers.
Used Sold as New
If your product is listed as “new” but appears repackaged or damaged, Amazon may suspend the ASIN due to buyer complaints.
Restricted or Unsafe Products
Certain products, like pesticides or supplements, require approval or may be restricted. Safety complaints also lead to listing removal.
Intellectual Property Infringement
Includes trademark, copyright, patent, or counterfeit claims filed by rights owners. Amazon may remove the ASIN immediately upon receiving a complaint.
Duplicate Listings
Creating multiple listings for the same product is against Amazon policy and may trigger an ASIN-level suspension.
Price Gouging
Charging excessively high prices during times of high demand or emergencies. Violations can lead to listing or account suspension.
