Why did Amazon suspend my seller account?

Amazon suspends seller accounts due to policy violations such as restricted products, intellectual property complaints, inauthentic items, poor performance metrics, verification failures, or linked account issues. The exact reason is mentioned in the Seller Central Performance Notification.

Can my Amazon seller account really be reinstated?

Yes. Most Amazon seller account suspensions are recoverable, including linked accounts, inauthentic complaints, restricted product violations, and verification failures. Success depends on submitting a policy-compliant appeal with proper documentation.

How long does Amazon take to review an appeal?

Amazon appeal review timelines vary. Simple cases may take 24–72 hours, moderate cases 5–10 working days, and complex cases 10–30 days. Amazon may request additional information, which can extend the review period.

What happens to my money after Amazon suspends my account?

After suspension, Amazon usually holds seller funds for 60 days. In some cases, the holding period may extend to 90 days. Funds are released after reinstatement or once the holding period ends.

How do I safely give account access to Seller Reinstatement?

We never ask for your Amazon password. Safe access is provided through Amazon User Permissions using an official invitation link or via AnyDesk or screen sharing only if required. You always remain the full owner of your account.

Is it safe to use a professional Amazon reinstatement service?

Yes. When handled correctly, professional services follow strict security practices such as no password sharing, limited access permissions, no unauthorized changes, and full transparency during the appeal process.

What information do I need to get started?

To get started, you typically need a screenshot of the suspension notice, the Amazon marketplace, the type of violation, and a brief account background. You can contact sellerreinstatement.com for a free review.
