Amazon & EU Compliance 2026: Without an EU Representative, sales are only “temporary”

What Happens If You Sell on Amazon
Without an EU Authorized Representative?

Short answer: your products will be deactivated. Long answer: document request → sales stop → account risk → customs and regulatory issues. This is not an “option”, it is a market entry requirement.

Start your EU Authorized Representative process with Grexon Quick compliance checklist
Amazon does not ask “if”, but “when” it will check your compliance.

1️⃣ It usually starts like this: A document request

A single case changes everything

Most sellers believe everything is fine until a compliance request arrives. Triggers are simple: a complaint, category scan, or routine inspection. Amazon asks for your EU Authorized Representative details and compliance documents. If you cannot provide them, the result is clear: your listing is shut down.

  • A compliance / product safety case is opened
  • Documents and representative information are requested
  • If deadlines are missed, your listings are at risk
Key point: “I’ll fix it later” is not a strategy, it’s a gamble.
Manufacturing outside the EU + selling in the EU = representative obligation.

2️⃣ First impact: Listings are deactivated, sales stop

Sales don’t “decline”, they drop to zero

  • Product listings may be removed or blocked
  • Advertising campaigns stop automatically
  • Ranking drops and visibility disappears
  • Recovery requires time and advertising budget
Reality: One day of suspension can cost weeks of performance.
Documents requested within 48 hours define your market access.

3️⃣ Escalation: Account risk and appeal stress

Not just one product, your entire store is affected

  • Your account can be marked as “compliance risk”
  • Additional reviews may start on other ASINs
  • Appeals require documents, action plans, and strict deadlines
  • Worst case: account suspension
Clear truth: Amazon does not forgive repeated compliance failures.
Compliance gaps lead to customs delays, returns, or extra costs.

4️⃣ Operational risk: Customs, returns, penalties

If goods are held, you pay twice

  • Missing or incorrect documents cause customs delays
  • Storage and processing costs increase
  • Return or destruction risks may occur
  • Your brand reputation is damaged
Warning: The most expensive mistake is the one that explodes at customs.
Choose systems, not just an address. “Cheap” often becomes expensive.

5️⃣ “Just an address” is not a solution

A passive representative can ruin your business

  • Technical file management (structure, versions, accessibility)
  • Response times (SLA) and crisis handling
  • Verification of labeling and mandatory information
  • Experience with Amazon compliance cases
Reality: Cheap solutions often create expensive crises.
Compliance is part of your sales infrastructure, not an add-on.

6️⃣ What does Grexon secure for you?

EU representation + operational compliance infrastructure

  • Official EU-based representation
  • Organization and management of technical files
  • Control of labeling and mandatory information
  • Amazon-focused compliance monitoring and support
Clear statement: Grexon builds systems, not just paperwork.
If you are prepared, you grow. If not, you face crisis.

7️⃣ Quick compliance checklist (before selling)

If you answer “no” here, you are at risk

  • Is the manufacturer located outside the EU?
  • Has an official EU Authorized Representative been appointed?
  • Are labeling and mandatory information complete (product/packaging/documents)?
  • Are technical files (DoC/test reports if required) immediately accessible?
Hard truth: Unprepared sales do not create growth, they create account risk.

🔗 Conclusion

Selling on Amazon without an EU Authorized Representative is not “bravery”, it is instability. Amazon and EU authorities operate through documentation and responsibility. Without proper infrastructure, you cannot remain in the market long-term.

Clear: No representative = no scaling. Only short-term sales.
