Packing Slip Change and New Processes for Inventory Shipments to Fulfillment Centers Mar 27, 2014

Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) has made some updates to how you prepare shipments that can affect your processes for sending inventory to Amazon fulfillment centers.

Effectively immediately, FBA no longer requires packing slips for your shipments to Amazon fulfillment centers. We hope that this change will save you time and resources when packing your shipments.

To help facilitate a faster receive time, FBA is now asking you to include your box quantity during the [Prepare Shipment|http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201171270] step of the [Shipment Creation Workflow|http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html/?nodeId=201171220]. This new process is for Small Parcel Delivery (SPD) only (both through Amazon Partnered Carrier and your own carrier).

FBA shipping labels now have unique identifiers, so you will need to print out the entire set of labels for all your boxes. You may need to modify your label printing process if you have been reproducing a single label to apply to all boxes in a shipment. This change also means you will need to reprint an entire set of labels for a particular shipment if you change the number of boxes in your SPD shipments.

For more information, please see the new instructions on our[ Prepare Shipment Help page.|http://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=201171270]
