Getting ready to sell on Amazon India? Use this checklist to prepare documents, listings and settings before you launch.
Before you register
Keep these ready: PAN, GSTIN (for most categories), a bank account in the business name, a working phone number and email, and your business address.
Make sure the business name and address match exactly across GST, bank and registration documents. Mismatches are a common reason for verification delays.
Prepare your catalogue
- Product names, brand and manufacturer details
- Barcodes (GTIN/EAN) or a GTIN exemption where eligible
- Accurate dimensions and weight, including packaging
- Clear images on a white background that meet Amazon image rules
- HSN code and GST rate for each product
Set up your account safely
Use the account owner login only for owner tasks. Add each team member or service provider as a separate user with only the permissions they need. Turn on two-step verification.
After launch
Check account health and notifications daily for the first few weeks, respond to buyer messages within 24 hours, and keep stock levels accurate to avoid cancellations.
