You have no idea how much this video just opened up more opportunities for me. I've been selling on Amazon for about 8 years but high volume for the past 2 years. I had so many issues with adding products that had a UPC code on the product already but most times would run into some issue. THANK YOU for making this video. I'm about to pay off my house in 10 years and not 30. lol
Josh, I cant thank you enough! I spent 2 days trying to figure this out, turns out putting my brand name in the product listing instead of Generic was the problem. Followed your video and had it done in 2 minutes. You're the man!!!
Hi Josh, I have a question here. After approved the GTIN, you can start your listing after 30 minutes, but I have been waiting for 2 hours and I still cant listing the product without the UPC code. Im doing the same steps as you but until the listing page, the product ID still need to be enter. Can you please help me? Thanks & regards.
Thank you SO MUCH for making this video. I just lost time with Amazon Support on approving my UPC codes which were from GS1 but after another company's name (different GS1 Prefix which wasn't registered for selling in Europe). Following your instructions, I open the whole category for the seller and list all 12 products. Thanks for your incredibly important work! this simple!
So what do you give your seller to make sure your product is identified by Amazon once it gets to the factory. Do you use the number generated by Amazon?
Thanks for this video, actually I have received GTIN exemption approval but still not able to add products(asking for product ID). Can you suggest any solution?
Thank you sir as usual Q: When I upload photos in image menu, amazon don’t display the images that I have uploaded, why amazon is displaying different images
I like your class it’s very helpful. I have a questions if I’m going to sell item and Amazon have too many colors I need one only GTIN please I need answer. I’m very interesting.
Hi ! I followed the steps and applied for the GTIN and got approved, but my next question is , I’m doing FBM at the moment. Will I still be able to do gtin? And also I bought products and I scanned the sku it’s the same product but different packaging can I still list under that or what do you recommend? Should I just make a new listing? I’m doing arbitrage at the moment and all the videos I see as fbm are just listing off the products already listed . I’d really love your advice and insight!
Hi, amazon approved my Brand qualification application. But once I am trying to list it with my brand name. It requires the ID Product number. What should I do in this case? Should I just list it under 'Generic' brand name instead?
hi i got this message what do i do men The brand you have provided requires a barcode (GTIN/UPC/EAN/ISBN) to list on Amazon. If you do not have a barcode for the product, you will find it on the packaging and/or back cover of your item.
You have helped me indeed. I can't thank you enough. Because of your video, my sales has vastly increase and the same goes with my income. Continue the good work.
Thanks again for the video. I followed your instruction and after a few days of struggle finally I managed to publish my products ,but when I view my product on Amazon, it says unavailable . Also when I publish my images they don't show on my thumbnails. If you could answer that I would appreciate that . Thanks again for the great videos.
what if i want to add variants of the generic product? can you make an example video? For the variants he wants a stock number and an article number, which I don't have. I can't complete the offer. I am also activated for the office supplies category.
hey thanks for the video, i am selling toys and today my listing removed and amazon asks for ASTM F963-17 and CPSIA report, would you please make a video about how to make these reports?
hello! thank your for your help!i still didnt understand well! If I want to brand my product from manufacture which i have not trademark it yet ,becouse i want to test the product first, do i need the UPC barcode to list the item with my brand ? or i can list it without product ID?
If you're going to be selling long term, I recommend branding your products and purchasing a UPC. This tutorial is really only for people trying to avoid purchasing UPCs and don't mind selling a generic product short term.
For example if im creating a new listing on amazon , i put 3 different types of advent calender and 1 christmas basket as a bundle and add the item as generic > i can do that right ? I m not a registered brand just doing RA, However there is lot of potential product i see that i can not do anything about
Hi Josh, I have a question about GTIN exemption. I have one brand but different shapes and colors .Do I have to have a GTIN exemption for each shape and color even if they are the same product.? THANKS.
You're great sir, one thing I'm worried about is I got logo on my product but I haven't regester or have a trademark. Do I have to use generic or simply my brand name? Thank you
hey Josh buddy thanks i am registering my account but its asking if your products have a UPC code can i select yes and then apply for GTIN exemption or start from NO '
so is anyone else having trouble with this? when I put generic in for my brand name, it says someone used "Generic" for their brand on their own product. and it wont let me save and finish
Good question! There really isn’t a difference except that “N/A” won’t show up as a brand on your listing. If you put “generic” you’ll see that as your brand. It’s up to you if you want to sell without any brand name appearing on your listing or just sell it as generic so your customer knows.
Hi Josh, I have brand name approval and gtin exemption. but when the listing i try to create keep going to drafts. it also keeps highliten teh Porudct ID.i dont have to fill that. also give me this messagein teh draft. "There is no record of the SKU corresponding to this update on your account. This commonly occurs when there are other issues on your SKU." I created a listing with teh same title and it gave errors and delete it and then i used gs1 and caused issu and i deleted this. I deleted 2 SSKUs( that had teh same product title. The last listing I am trying to create has teh same title as I cannot change the title. what is this mean and how to resolve this please? appreciate your help please. Always pleased watching ur videos! Thanks
i was able to create the product listing using this method. since i will be using amazon FBA to fulfill orders i will need to place a barcode on the product eventually correct? if so, wont i run into trouble inputing the barcode into the product ID?
Hi! Does this one apply for FBM also? Because I was trying to list some products using this link, but when I look for the products on Amazon I couldn't find it, and when I'm using the link that tell you you listed something I can't see the sizes. I'm struggling in this.
Thanks! I advise you to perform a UPSTO trademark search to make sure the brand you’re looking to use isn’t trademarked currently. The most credible thing to do would be to trademark your brand and then use it on your products
Brand Name: generic, Manufacture: Generic. After I click on save I get the following Successful Message: Your updates have been submitted.

Hi Dept to ! Do you have a video explaining the process of sending from China. Especially for all the barcodes fnscu ; upc etc.. where to put it or which your supplier has to put on your product/box shipping box Thanks
Quick question, my product is already listed but I figured out that it has no barcode so I put generic as you did but they are telling me to add a product. Should I delete it and then add another one or what you suggest?
On the Amazon seller central what page do I go to that allows me to apply for the gtin exemption what do I click on to get there I am very new at this so I don't know what to do thank u
Hi. So the exemption has nothing to do if you have a registered brand or not? Meaning, let’s say I want to do private label but didn’t register it yet, can I go ahead and get a gs1 code and register with Amazon? Or better to get an exemption and add it without the code ?
Thanks a lot. 1 question. After we got Amazon's GTIN Exemption and listed our product and started selling, after few months, we want to use GS1 barcode for the same listing. Does Amazon allow us to enter GS1 barcode in that listing and if yes, how we can do it ? Thanks in advance
Hi Josh...I tried doing the same many times but it always comes with an error that ''Brand not eligible for exemption''..for all the categories it shows the same error..I dnnw why :(
im still so confused. I apply for a GTIN exemption and it doesn't give me a GTIN. and it says to submit my product to amazon I need a GTIN, HELP ME!!!!
Hi! I need help with shipping settings with FBA. Should I set up shipping settings for FBA if so how to set up for USA and international andwhat amount to include with our price fro shipping inside USA? please clear these with a video
Hello! We recently got approval for GTIN exemption and created the listing. However, we decided to use a UPC code instead. Is it possible to add the UPC to an existing listing?Thanks!

Glad it helped!
Can you have a Brand name that's not Trademarked, and still list your products under the Generic brand?
I am new to Amazon , why is everything a secret ? Why can’t they have instructions how to list for new sellers it’s ridiculous
@@Entrepreneurusa small indie company, cut them some slack
Brother Howfar nah help me with this level
Hi Josh, I have a question here. After approved the GTIN, you can start your listing after 30 minutes, but I have been waiting for 2 hours and I still cant listing the product without the UPC code. Im doing the same steps as you but until the listing page, the product ID still need to be enter. Can you please help me? Thanks & regards.
It’s same happening with me
Which market place do you try to listing?
Thankyou for your Video. Will you answer my question ? If i want to use Merchant do i have to use UPC or no need to use UPC ?
Thank you SO MUCH for making this video. I just lost time with Amazon Support on approving my UPC codes which were from GS1 but after another company's name (different GS1 Prefix which wasn't registered for selling in Europe). Following your instructions, I open the whole category for the seller and list all 12 products. Thanks for your incredibly important work! this simple!
You’re welcome ☺️
I tried this today and it doesn't allow me to do this under "generic" maybe it's because i am in the UK?
Same, this was working for me before but now each time I try, under status, there's a red X, anyone know a fix for this??
if i already registered my brand with AMAZON can i write my brand name intead of generic?
It works man ur the best this video deserves a billion likes.
Do you do this with every listing?
New Follower! I posted my first product today by watching this video 🙏
Hello, Seems this does not work for Registered brands.
So what do you give your seller to make sure your product is identified by Amazon once it gets to the factory. Do you use the number generated by Amazon?
You’re the only one on YT (I’ve seen) that helps us with this. Thank you so much!
Hey Josh great video, do think it’s “bad” to post as a generic product to start off in amazon fba?
Do u have an answer by now? Please let me know
Thanks for this video, actually I have received GTIN exemption approval but still not able to add products(asking for product ID). Can you suggest any solution?
Thank you sir as usual
Q: When I upload photos in image menu, amazon don’t display the images that I have uploaded, why amazon is displaying different images
Great video like always! So any time that we want to add a generic product under same category we need to repeat this process or is it just once?
Ok so if it’s your branded product you’d suggest to get a GS1 barcode? Thank you for the great video by the way. Lots of info ❤
Thank you my friend. about generic word..
I like your class it’s very helpful. I have a questions if I’m going to sell item and Amazon have too many colors I need one only GTIN please I need answer. I’m very interesting.
hey josh, one question, can i list a branded product under the generic thing?
Hi ! I followed the steps and applied for the GTIN and got approved, but my next question is , I’m doing FBM at the moment. Will I still be able to do gtin? And also I bought products and I scanned the sku it’s the same product but different packaging can I still list under that or what do you recommend? Should I just make a new listing?

Same! I love how he explains everything , mind
What to do if a product has variations? Like a lot of variation. For example pillow covers with different patterns
The only video that helped me! Thaaaaank you so much!
Do you have to buy the barcodes or can you just get a printer and print the barcodes that Amazon give you online?
I followed this every step of the way! Great content! Thank you!
In your video you mix 2 videos. Before and after appling for GTIN . plz tell me what to do
Hi Josh, this exception for GTIN would help me with une product with different ls colors? Thank you
Hi, thank you for your video. Yesterday I watched the video that I can buy GTIN and enter its number instead of UPC for listing. Is it right?
Hi, amazon approved my Brand qualification application. But once I am trying to list it with my brand name. It requires the ID Product number. What should I do in this case?
Should I just list it under 'Generic' brand name instead?
Hello sir,thank-you for informative video.If I buy a product from Ali baba.can I apply GTIN exemption?
Thank you so much for the video. The best one I could find to start selling.
hi so if product is already being sold on amazon and i have 100 pcs of it, how will i send it for FBA without those barcode?
hi i got this message what do i do men The brand you have provided requires a barcode (GTIN/UPC/EAN/ISBN) to list on Amazon. If you do not have a barcode for the product, you will find it on the packaging and/or back cover of your item.
You have helped me indeed. I can't thank you enough. Because of your video, my sales has vastly increase and the same goes with my income. Continue the good work.

I would like to mention that I want to list it as a regular product, not on Amazon Handmade and would like to sell it by FBM.
You can follow these steps with a handmade product!
Hi, I was wondering if you would recommend this over actually buying upcs for my products. My products are handmade

Give it at least 30 minutes before trying
Can I still send in inventory to fba using gtin exemption
Hi Josh, I have a question about GTIN exemption. I have one brand but different shapes and colors .Do I have to have a GTIN exemption for each shape and color even if they are the same product.? THANKS.
You're great sir, one thing I'm worried about is I got logo on my product but I haven't regester or have a trademark. Do I have to use generic or simply my brand name? Thank you
your videos are very thorough, very helpful thumbs up!
How can we skip IGST part?
Applying for the gtn but for generic they ask me to submit proof. Am I doing something wrong?
hey Josh buddy thanks i am registering my account but its asking if your products have a UPC code can i select yes and then apply for GTIN exemption or start from NO
'
you have helped me so much. I have been trying to figure this out for over a week now. thank you
You're very welcome!
what if my supplier has a brand name but no barcodes, can I apply for a gtin exemption on their behalf or will they need to do it?
is procedure US different to UK ?
so is anyone else having trouble with this? when I put generic in for my brand name, it says someone used "Generic" for their brand on their own product. and it wont let me save and finish
use Capital "G"
Same problem
Hi, then how to approve your brand name and add a product without GTIN..
Super Helpful thank you!
I see a product id there from your previous listing will work out for me if this is my first?
Yes it will
@@DebtToDollars ❤️
Thanks , Josh. May I ask you what is the different between fill in the brand " Generic " and : " N/A" ?
Good question! There really isn’t a difference except that “N/A” won’t show up as a brand on your listing. If you put “generic” you’ll see that as your brand. It’s up to you if you want to sell without any brand name appearing on your listing or just sell it as generic so your customer knows.
Silly question without a EAN/ASIN/Barcode can you sell via Amazon FBA?
Hi Josh, I have brand name approval and gtin exemption. but when the listing i try to create keep going to drafts. it also keeps highliten teh Porudct ID.i dont have to fill that.
also give me this messagein teh draft.
"There is no record of the SKU corresponding to this update on your account. This commonly occurs when there are other issues on your SKU."
I created a listing with teh same title and it gave errors and delete it and then i used gs1 and caused issu and i deleted this. I deleted 2 SSKUs( that had teh same product title.
The last listing I am trying to create has teh same title as I cannot change the title.
what is this mean and how to resolve this please? appreciate your help please. Always pleased watching ur videos! Thanks
i cant find in what page you are to apply for a GTIN i cant find on my Amazon seller account exactly that page?
That was worth a watch, thank you ❤️
i was able to create the product listing using this method. since i will be using amazon FBA to fulfill orders i will need to place a barcode on the product eventually correct? if so, wont i run into trouble inputing the barcode into the product ID?

Will Amazon approve my GTIN Exemption and also the brand the brand approval? What are the chances you recon?
Nice video Friend. So can the brand name be made up . If there's no brand name on the items you will be selling?
Thanks! I advise you to perform a UPSTO trademark search to make sure the brand you’re looking to use isn’t trademarked currently. The most credible thing to do would be to trademark your brand and then use it on your products
Hey!! I have listed the product with gtin exemption but on the detail page the buy box does not appear.kindly guide me how to fix this problem.
Amazing brother, great work, and best explanation
So if you do this, do you still have to put a fnsku on the product or are you exempt from putting that on as well?
Hi Josh, I have followed the steps you applied what you have done, but I can't find that product in the inventory.
Brand Name: generic, Manufacture: Generic. After I click on save I get the following Successful Message:
