Simplify Safety with Amazon Compliance Dashboard
Amazon’s Manage Your Compliance dashboard is designed to help sellers streamline the process of meeting safety and regulatory requirements. By centralizing these tasks, it saves time and allows sellers to focus more on growing their business.
Compliance plays a vital role in ensuring the safety of Amazon’s customers, employees, and partners. It helps confirm that all products sold on Amazon meet necessary legal standards. Maintaining high safety standards builds trust among buyers and sellers alike.
Risks of Selling Non-Compliant Products
Failing to meet compliance regulations can lead to serious problems. Products without proper safety documentation can be harmful to customers, lead to listing removals, and negatively impact your Account Health. For international sellers, non-compliant goods may be held at customs, and Amazon may dispose of any inventory in its fulfillment centers that doesn’t meet requirements.
Through the Manage Your Compliance dashboard, sellers can upload and manage safety documents either individually or in bulk. This centralized platform allows users to submit, track, and fulfill all regulatory requirements for their products. Sellers can access this tool by logging into Seller Central.
Previously, sellers had to address each compliance request separately. Now, the dashboard simplifies that process by offering an efficient workflow. Sellers can quickly organize and submit all required documentation to show that their products align with Amazon’s policies and legal regulations.
Upload Safety Docs Easily on Amazon
The dashboard displays each product’s compliance status, including its name, image, ASIN (Amazon Standard Identification Number), and SKU (Stock Keeping Unit). Sellers can view exactly what documents are needed, the approval status of submissions, and which products are at risk—helping them focus on listings that could most impact sales.
Sellers can handle compliance tasks one-by-one or all at once using bulk upload features. By downloading a spreadsheet of all current compliance requests, filling in the required details, and re-uploading it, sellers can fulfill documentation needs for up to 5,000 listings at once.
Use Compliance Reference for Guidance
To assist sellers in understanding their responsibilities, Amazon offers the Compliance Reference tool. It helps users stay informed about the specific requirements for different product types—whether they relate to imports, exports, safety regulations, or specialized categories like toys, electronics, or products containing batteries. This tool also connects users to lab testing services if extra support is needed.
Sellers can use the Compliance Reference tool to search for compliance details by keyword or product type. It also shows a list of service providers that can help with regulatory requirements. However, sellers are encouraged to evaluate these providers on their own to make sure their services are appropriate and current.
Amazon is constantly working to improve the Manage Your Compliance dashboard. Sellers are encouraged to visit the Seller Forums to provide feedback, share experiences, and learn tips from other sellers.
