depends on what you sell it may makes sense.

is your plan to ship from your supplier to amazon fba in UK and then dispatch to germany from UK?

yes it does work if the costs make sense

there should be 0 customs from uk to germany. you are within europe

German Customs are strict.

Extremly strict.

Be careful of moving parcels around.

Always a chance of losing items ( not direcvtly involved with FBA).

other question.
when we do fullfil, we have to print the label. usually i have to save it as file in my PC and send it to my co-worker. do you think it's safe to open the file and print it in other PC which other amazon account is there ?
the reason i do that because i mentioned before, i am in china now.

Save it to the PC and make sure there is no Net access / Amazon not logged in when you print it - not a big deal
