3.Business Information

The next step is to share the following information:

Your business location: This is the country in which your business is located. It’s crucial that this is accurate, as Amazon will be verifying it at the end of the registration and you can’t change this till registration is complete.

Your business type: You’ll choose your business entity from the following options (most fall into the ‘Privately-owned’ category):

  • State-owned business
  • Publicly-owned business
  • Privately-owned business
  • Charity
  • None, I am an individual

If you don’t have a business formed just yet, you can choose “None, I am an individual.” If you choose this option, Amazon is going to ask for your full name in the next step.

Before moving into next step, you will need to verify your phone number via a text or phone call. When you enter the 6-digit code that you received from Amazon, your number will be verified.
