What are the key facts?
- 1Amazon India added seller-focused sales guidance and operational content

- 4The tutorials cover onboarding, product listing, order fulfillment, and account management
What happened?
On September 15, 2026, the Amazon India News Center listed content related to “How to sell products on Amazon.in” for sellers. The content is part of a pre-holiday update to the platform’s business education resources for new sellers and prospective merchants. It focuses on standardized tutorials covering onboarding, product listing, order fulfillment, and account management on the India marketplace.
The current page does not show any new uniform commission rates, storage fees, or mandatory effective date. The update therefore should not be interpreted as a fee-policy change. Chinese cross-border sellers entering the India market still need to prepare corporate and tax documents, check product compliance, and arrange brand and intellectual property evidence, import procedures, local delivery, returns, and customer service.
Small and medium-sized brands preparing to enter the India market for the first time, sellers relying on third-party service providers for operations, and businesses planning to test new products during the holiday season may find the content particularly relevant. Sellers should verify the tutorials against the actual requirements in their Seller Central accounts and confirm whether displayed fees apply only to local Indian sellers rather than assuming they automatically apply to cross-border entities.
What does this mean for cross-border sellers?
The new Amazon India sales guide mainly helps new sellers understand onboarding, product listing, order fulfillment, and account management, lowering the preparation barrier for entering the India marketplace. It does not currently indicate changes to uniform commission rates, storage fees, or a mandatory effective date. Sellers should continue to verify entity, tax, compliance, and fulfillment requirements against their actual Seller Central accounts.
What should sellers do now?

Verify entity, tax, brand, and intellectual property evidence requirements item by item, produce a gap list, and assign an owner and status to each item for review before submission through Seller Central.Listing character checker
- 2This week, check the product information and Listing character limits for new products planned for Amazon.in using the sales guide, and save the test result for each Listing. Acceptance requires that all tested Listings have no character-limit violations and that all issues are documented.
- 3This week, organize import, local delivery, returns, and customer-service procedures for products planned for sale on the India marketplace. Assign the responsible person and handling stage for each process, and create a process table that the operations provider and Seller Central requirements can be checked against item by item.AI Customer Service
