Barry it no extra trouble to go through correct channels, costs maybe £50 to your freight agent for UK customs clearance. A few years ago you could get stocks through and direct into amazon. Now companies like DHL,FedEX have under instructions from amazon blocked international shipments to there EU depots.
Ok I'm genuinely interested in this and i don't know much about importing into the EU as its not a problem I have, but couldn't you just pay the import duties via Dhl online and send it direct to Amazon?
All my imports have the VAT paid before they arrive at UK customs.

OK Barry peace....Who sends the goods is classed as the exporter, who receives the goods is the importer, and if sent direct to amazon, amazon would be classed as the importer. The importer is responsible for the duty and vat, not the exporter.So import would show up on amazon's deferment account (google it) and you would also require the VAT number of amazon. Also just imagine if tons of ⊗⊗⊗⊗ goods were sent to amazon, amazon would be classed as the importer.

My real info have been suspended from Amazon.com, now if I want to sale on UK, FR, DE market, should I use my real info or go with stealth info? Do they share info?
Hi Tony, things are changing as we all know. To the best of knowledge amazon.com and .co.uk don't share info at this moment. However there seems to a connection between .com and .fr, maybe some beta software they are trying out.
For the UK you will need a passport or DL ID, utility bill. However I opened a new UK account a few weeks back and the telephone ringback confirmation has vanished.

Ohh, regarding the opening of EU account, so amazon will need to verify each and every newly opened account? Which means I cannot proceed with the stealth method because I need to put in a my real information? So they will ask for a passport or driving licence and later a utility bill to have the account verified?
I have opened 3 .com accounts and so far, there isn't any such verification requests.
Yes, all new accounts get daily disbursement on the EU
I read this on Amazon UK website. Is this mean I will get pay every two week?
Thank you

How do I get paid?
Amazon first settles your account 14 days after you register. Subsequently, the payment process repeats every 14 days. It normally takes five business days from the payment date until the money is available in your bank account.
For a payment to take place:
Must have a positive or zero “Selling on Amazon” account balance. Referral Fees, Variable Closing Fees, customer refunds, customer claims, or charge backs, if any, can affect your balance.
Entered a bank account in your seller account.
Tony, that seems to refer to older accounts that have not been verified by the "verification team" All new accounts you can disburse daily (well every 24 hours to be exact).

On sign up they will ask for a passport/DL number. They then may request copy of the passport and a utility bill at a later date.

I can second that.
I have UK account banned but US account ran smoothly although they share the same info and credit card.
