Shipping to an Amazon FBA warehouse can be complicated. Freightos.com makes sure all of Amazon’s requirements are covered in your shipment, including booking an appointment for delivery to a fulfillment center.

Start by telling us where the shipment is coming from and going to. The origin address is usually the factory overseas. The destination address will be the Amazon FBA warehouse Amazon provides you with in “Seller Central.” If you’re not sure which warehouse to choose, here’s some more information about what to look for.

Then, choose whether you’re shipping boxes/pallets or a full container, and enter the size, dimensions, and weight.

Next, tell us the value of your goods (for insurance purposes) and when they'll be ready.

After you've filled in this information, you'll be taken to the Recommended Services page.

Along with adding optional services like customs brokerage, a customs bond, and insurance to your shipment, you'll need to choose how you want your shipment labeled and palletized. We recommend getting your supplier to handle labeling and palletization to avoid extra charges from your forwarder.

Once you click “Search & Book, you’ll see Quotes from multiple freight forwarders. To find the one that works best for your shipment, you can sort and filter to narrow down the options according to price, transit time, forwarder, and more.

Review your booking summary and if you’re happy with your Quote, press “Confirm & Book Shipment.”

You’ll be taken to your Shipment page where you can pay for your shipment and provide full details about the consignor (sender of goods) and consignee (receiver of goods), as well as upload relevant documents such as your commercial invoice.
​

Note: Even though Amazon cannot serve as the consignee, you can use their address as the consignee address.
