To add a certification you must provide supporting information. This information will be made publicly available for customers to verify your certifications, as well as used by Amazon to promote diverse sellers. The type of information that a seller must provide depends on the type of certification being claimed. Prior to entering a certification, have the following information readily available:
-
A digital image of a certificate, issued by
your state or a third party, identifying your company as the awardee of the
certification you are claiming.
-
A digital image of a letter, issued by a
government entity, identifying your company as the awardee of the certification you
are claiming.
-
The start and expiration date of your certification.
-
The issuing agency that granted you the certification.
-
Your company's Dun and Bradstreet Number (DUNS Number) that was used to registered your certification with the US Government.
Sellers are expected to make truthful claims about their certifications. Business
customers will have an opportunity to report discrepancies about particular
certifications. Furthermore, sellers are expected to keep their certification
information up to date and expired certifications will be automatically removed. If
sellers do not provide and maintain truthful claims, we may remove them from the Amazon
Business Seller Program. Continued failure to provide and maintain truthful claims may
result in removal of selling privileges.
