My Seller Account deactivated

Dear community, I need help.

My seller Account have been deactivated for IP's violations.

The backgroung is: i do have a brand; trademark; RN Registered Identification Number and everything i need to sell my products. We have a factory in China that produce my products etc...

The reason of the IP Violations is Counterfeit and mainly what happened my employee that clearly back then didn't know that we need a letter of authorization to sell on an other ASIN that we don't owned. He found out that Amazon allow other seller to sell that same product on other ASIN and that was his logic.

I want to be clear about my product are not Counterfeit. They are original product of under my Trademark.

On my Appeals i have provided all the documentation and proof about my products are not Counterfeit/ POA and how greater details that demonstrate my account has complied with Amazon policy. And also i have acknowledge that my employee had a lack of experience on Amazon IP Policy and i have included in my POA trainings that he will have on those topics.

Since my seller account deactivation i have made at least 15 submission(appeals) over a month

My issue is that my last response from the Amazon Health Team is copy/paste of the 3rd response i've received.

We are eager to understand what Amazon Health Team needed to know or have for the reinstatement of my seller Account and as today we are so confused...

Thank you!

That doesn't address the violation. They want valid invoices from valid suppliers of where you got your merchandise. Or a LOA from the brand.

Doesn't matter that your employee wasn't trained properly, it's your account and your responsibility. Amazon does want excuses. If you cannot address the violation with whatever they are requiring, then you are done.

Hello @Seller_E5FyoOTO1Nfko,

Thank you for posting your concerns with an intellectual property complaint from a brand or rights owner.

The backgroung is: i do have a brand; trademark; RN Registered Identification Number and everything i need to sell my products. We have a factory in China that produce my products etc...

The reason of the IP Violations is Counterfeit and mainly what happened my employee that clearly back then didn't know that we need a letter of authorization to sell on an other ASIN that we don't owned. He found out that Amazon allow other seller to sell that same product on other ASIN and that was his logic.

It would appear that when your employee listed these products they listed your products under someone else's ASIN which may have their own intellectual property or brand protection. This would directly violate their intellectual property rights thus we will require valid invoices that shows you were attempting to source and sell their products and brands. Invoices will need to reference the listed product and brand as well.

As this is associated to an account deactivation we will in most situations require a valid dispute including a letter of authorization, or invoices as mentioned. If these cannot be provided there may be an option the account may not be eligible for reactivation, as a plan of action does not address these types of situations and nor almost never accepted outside of very unique situations.

We didn't decided to take an off the shelf generic product that we found and put our brand name on it and then sell it on Amazon.

My products that was sold on an other ASIN with out a letter of authorization were my product that i was selling o for the last 10 years on other marketplace.

As you've described, you were selling your branded products under someone else's branded listing, this misuses their intellectual property creating this type of violation. As mentioned above we need proof that you were authorized to use their intellectual property for reactivation.

The forums community and I are here to support you. Please let us know how we can help you from this point forward.

Emet.

Hey @Seller_E5FyoOTO1Nfko

I totally understand your frustration. We went through the same nightmare of our account being deactivated due to an intellectual property violation.

We kept appealing regularly for two months using our specialized techniques, and our persistence paid off and we eventually got reactivated.
