Starting January 1, 2026, Amazon will no longer offer FBA prep and labeling services in the US. This means sellers must fully prep and label their products before sending them to Amazon’s fulfillment centers.
What’s Changing:
- No more prep or labeling by Amazon for FBA shipments in the US.
- Applies to inventory sent directly to FBA and through AWD, AGL, SEND, and Supply Chain Portal.
- Only shipments created before Jan 1, 2026, will still get Amazon prep—even if they arrive later.
What You Should Do:
- Prep and label your products yourself or use a vetted 3PL.
- Check if your 3PL is ready and certified.
- Train your team and test new workflows before the deadline.
