Update to FBA standard-size partial shipment split options

Just got this email from Amazon. No link to share (YET)… Not even sure what’s actually changing here but I bet it benefits Amazon.

Hello,

Effective February 20, 2025, we’ll update the Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) inbound placement options for standard-sized products and the partial shipment splits option will no longer be offered.

Our redesigned fulfillment network now enables faster delivery for standard-size products through minimal and Amazon-optimized shipment splits. With this change, you’ll be able to choose from the following two options:

** Amazon-optimized shipment splits: There is no inbound placement service fee if you’re able to ship your shipments to multiple US fulfillment centers.*
** Minimal shipment splits: For a fee, you can send your inventory to one location within a geographic region of your choosing.*

Partial shipment splits will continue to be available for large bulky products.

For more information, go to 2025 FBA inbound placement service fee.
