We’ve added instructions to make it easier to update your country of origin information. Our Delivering imports to Amazon help page provides details to make this process clear. In response, we’re asking you to update your country of origin information for your listings.

You can update your country of origin information for one product at a time or for multiple products at once.

To update your country of origin information for a single product, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Manage All Inventory in Seller Central.
  2. Select a product that’s missing its country of origin.
  3. Enter the country of origin.
  4. Select Save and finish.

To update multiple products, follow these steps:

1. Select Reports in the main Seller Central menu, and then select Inventory Reports.
2. In the Request an Inventory report field, select Category Listings report.
3. Apply date ranges and status filters as needed, and then select Request report. The report will be available for download within 45 minutes.
4. Select Download for the newly generated report.
5. Find the attribute column for country of origin, and enter the country of origin for each product.
6. Set the Listing action column to Edit (partial update).
7. Save and upload the file by going to Catalog and then Add products via upload.

For more information, go to Delivering imports to Amazon and review the instructions under Country of origin.

In the above post, we have highlighted the section on how to get a Category Listing Report as knowing how to do this is very helpful when you need to update several of your listings. With all the changes Amazon is currently always doing, this is a good tool to have in your arsenal.

Nail, meet hammer.

Since that glorious 2016 day when the seasoned & savvy forum vets first made me aware of CLRs (tip o’ me 'ol straw-boater to our friends @mav-dak & @oneida_books), back in the ‘Age of Jive,’ having quarterly-downloaded copies of them at our beck and call has proven very useful in our success with pulling Amazon’s head out of its nether regions.

I do believe I learned of CLRs from the very same 2016 thread. Super handy to have for a record of the data Amazon loses, or hides, like my carefully crafted bullet points designed to inform the buyer about important product specifics, and not for keyword spamming.
Many that have survived are now behind an extra click wall ^
