Default Can a UK resident set up an Amazon US seller account?

I am trying to get back on amazon UK by setting up a stealth account however with ID checks i wondered if it is easier to set up a USA account and if that is possible using UK address?

Any help appreciated

It is possible - log onto the Amazon US account and register - you will need US account however from what I have seen (I stand corrected if I am wrong)

from what I understand you can use any bank account, uk, us, au, etc
I was wondering about the address attached to it? would it work without having a uk amazon in place?

You can use a UK bank with amazon.co.uk, plus many other countries. You don't need a UK amazon account to sell in USA, and yes amazon.com and amazon.ca are now the easiest marketplaces to set up. Just for the record, amazon USA and Amazon Europe don't share info (as yet)

From what I can understand.

You can open a Amazon USA account with USA details and USA bank and sell on Amazon USA

You can sell worldwide with that account. However you would be better opening a ca. account if you want to sell to Canada.

To open a US account(a) you need to provide US information, then you have the issue of withdrawing your money.

What does it means 'need to provide US information'? is it you need to have us address, phone no etc.....? for withdraw,i am sure you can use UK bank details.

No disrespect but please post correct information. You can use all your UK stealth info to set up in the USA and UK stealth to open in CA, but use different info as if USA gets suspended Canada will follow. Yes you can use your UK bank for USA, not sure on Canada though as we don't sell there anymore.

Default Re: Can a UK resident set up an Amazon US seller account?

I know this has already been answered, but yes, you can create an Amazon US account with a UK address and UK bank account and UK credit card. I am running 3 Amazon US stealth accounts with no problems so far. One of them is nearing 2 years and the others are more than 6 months old.

However, is it just as easy to create an Amazon UK account? I haven't been successful in creating a stealth UK amazon account yet..

Barry, Canada for our products is very slow and not at this time worth the investment in technology. I would say similar to Spain, very poor.

This sounds like some hope is still available for us UK Amz stealthers...

If Amz.com and Amz.co.uk do not share information, would it be ok to set up an Amz.com account from stealth details on an Amz.co.uk account which has been suspended? Or is this a no-go ?

Then, if successful, using the freshly created Amz.com account to sell on Amz.co.uk ?

As said earlier ebay King, at this moment amazon.co.uk and amazon.con don't share info, so yes you will be OK. You cannot use amazon.com account details to sell on .co.uk. You need to set up a .co.uk account which if you wish to be stealth is virtually impossible as you have to supply passport info.
