Have you done FBA lately, first you no longer have to put any packing slips in the parcel.
Use your address that you are registered with.
You will be unable to ship to amazon.co.uk from outside the EU, you need an agent within the EU to forward your shipment or amazon will refuse the shipment.

Why is it not the same for Amazon UK? I get what Micky is saying about agent within the EU - that makes sense

No they don't need a slip also, just the address label.

Even shipping to the US you need an agent to clear the goods through customs and Canada I would expect the same.

You are shipping goods from outside these countries and all need customs clearance, amazon will not do this for you. More than likely there are taxes to pay, VAT, Duty on the imported goods. You can check what duty is payable by inputting the tariff code into the relevant countries duty calculator.
