FBA IN UK for US sellers ?

[kockedoff]

I have seen few seller who are in US but also on UK site I see their items are available for sale fulfilled by UK fulfillment ...

is it possible to be a US seller and do FBA in UK a well? how?

yes, but you need an importer/agent in the UK as amazon will not be the importer so you cannot send goods direct to them. In other words you need a middleman.

Don't know of any off hand, you need to Google freight agents. If you have a freight agent in USA he will no doubt have a UK office. The problem importing is that VAT and Duty charges are payable once the goods are cleared customs and the agent needs to be sure he will get paid once he makes these payments are made on your behalf.

Probably all off the overseas Amazon sellers who sell on the UK site, it will surely be their only option if they want to sell on Amaxon UK site.

just get a freelance person in UK from the freelancer sites, someone with a good rep, it is just a job and someone will want to do it, as long as the goods are legit...
