How to become an Amazon seller?
Provide GS1 Barcodes (GTINs) for Amazon listings, or your listings will be removed…
To sell your products on Amazon, you need to add a unique product identifier, known as a GTIN (Global Trade Item Number), i.e., a GS1 barcode number.
GS1 Hong Kong is the only officially licensed organisation with the authority to issue barcodes (GTINs) locally with “489” prefix.
According to Amazon, product listings without valid GTINs will be removed by Amazon. Amazon recommends to obtain GTINs directly from GS1, and not from other third parties selling GTIN licenses. Amazon verify the authenticity of product GTINs by checking the GS1 database. GTINs that do not match the information provided by GS1 will be considered invalid and could impact your Amazon account.
