Question about setting up UK Amazon account.
 

Hi, I am trying to start selling on amazon with an existing account we created long time ago for buying.

It is not gonna be a stealth as we are only selling goods we have mastered and dominated on ebay. Just about 5 items manufactured specifically for us.

My problem is that my existing UTR was associated with an already closed account years ago. Is there a way out of this?

My questions are:
Would they ask me for UTR immediately I convert to a seller account.
Would they ask for bank account instantly I convert to seller account.
Would they ask for any other document as soon as I convert.
Should I start with a professional business seller or just the basic one.
For VCC should I just use my bank debit card or should I buy a VCC?

Can I use a saving account for Amazon and with different name as in amazon registered details and will it be possible to change to a different bank account later?

Thanks.

If you have a previously banned account then you are going to need to go down the stealth route.

They can ask for documents from you at any time they wish.

I'd personally use a VCC straight away

The new account is diff from my previously banned account and has no relation to it at all. I don't want to use stealth in this case cause I don't want to limit my monthly sale for fear they could ask for paperwork I wont be able to provide in case of stealth

How do you bypass UTR for stealth?

You can't sell quickly even on legit account
All you need vcc to open and you do need to provide utr number at start then later on they will as proof does not matter if real account or stleath
You will be asked id bank statement of the account on AZ proof of address and proof of utr number later on or maybe straight after you convert it's down to AZ

If you're using the same UTR that was previously used on a banned account then the two are not different and can be linked. You shouldn't let the fear of account verification limit your sales, there's always ways around this, instead just make multiple seller accounts.
