Removing Shipping to California and several other states

I am tying to figure out how to remove shipping from california and other states. Other sellers are selling the exact same product and have it Blocked to California. I have tried to go through the shipping settings but that will not work because when I de-select california it won't let me save the template, and it says that all 48 states are required for shipping

Hi @Seller_ZB7dRYwNKMrvK,

Under "Minimum requirements to create shipping templates" here, Amazon states: "For the standard shipping option, shipping to all states in the continental U.S. is required (excluding Hawaii, Alaska, and U.S. protectorates)." This explains why the system won't let you save a template that excludes California.

You mentioned seeing other sellers blocking California - this might be because some products have specific state regulations. The automotive and powersports help page here gives examples, like certain engines and parts that aren't compliant with California Air Resources Board requirements.

Unless your product falls under these specific state regulatory restrictions, the continental U.S. shipping requirement will apply, and you won't be able to exclude individual states from your shipping template.

Hope this helps explain what you're seeing!

Best regards, Michael
