Dropshipping Violation of Seller Code of Conduct Amazon Suspension

If you’ve received a suspension notice for violating Amazon’s dropshipping policy, you’re not alone. Many sellers—especially new ones—fall into non-compliant dropshipping practices that conflict with Amazon’s Seller Code of Conduct. The consequences can be serious, including account suspension or removal of selling privileges.

What is the Seller Code of Conduct?

Amazon’s Seller Code of Conduct outlines rules to ensure a safe, fair, and trusted marketplace. Sellers must act honestly, deliver what they promise, and provide a consistent customer experience. Violating these rules, including through improper dropshipping methods, can result in suspension.

What Constitutes a Dropshipping Violation?

Amazon allows dropshipping, but only under strict conditions. Violations typically include:

  • Shipping orders with another retailer’s packaging or invoice

  • Not being the seller of record (i.e., customer thinks they ordered from Walmart or another store)
  • Failing to take full responsibility for returns, inventory, and customer service

  • Relying on suppliers who cause delays or stockouts

  • Lack of tracking or proof of delivery

Essentially, you must appear to the buyer as the sole seller, with no third-party branding or involvement visible.

What Happens if You Violate the Policy?

Amazon may:

  1. Suspend your account
  2. Remove ASINs or listings
  3. Hold your funds
  4. Permanently ban you for repeat violations
