具有有效期的库存

发布具有有效期的库存之前，请务必遵守我们的政策。如果未遵守相关规定，我们可能会对商品信息或账户采取强制措施。

重要： 对于亚马逊物流卖家，不遵守亚马逊物流商品预处理要求、安全要求及商品限制可能会产生以下后果：亚马逊运营中心拒收库存，弃置或退还库存，阻止今后向运营中心发送货件，或者亚马逊运营中心针对预处理工作或不合规行为收取费用。

具有有效期的商品定义

所有外用和消费类商品（包括营养补充剂），无论是供人类食用还是动物使用，均被亚马逊视为具有有效期的商品，即使这类商品的包装上未注明有效期也是如此。此类商品包括：

• 消费类商品

• 外用商品，如护肤品、肥皂、洗发水和化妆品

亚马逊认为“最佳使用日期”或“销售截止日期”等同于有效期。

“健康和美妆”分类中具有开封后使用期 (PAO) 标志（下图）的库存将被视为具有有效期。

重要： 供定期服用或使用并具有有效期的商品，或者以散装/捆绑商品包装形式出售的商品必须由买家接收，并留出充足的时间供其使用。例如，买家收到的 240 片装补充剂（每天需服用一片）距有效期必须至少还剩 240 天。

对于亚马逊物流商品，剩余保质期在扣除使用期后，必须还剩 90 天以上。例如，一瓶 240 片装、每天需服用一片的补充剂在亚马逊运营中心进行登记时，其剩余保质期必须至少为 240 天加上额外的 90 天。

对具有有效期的商品进行预处理

具有有效期的商品必须使用适合运输的包装材料完整包装和密封。

对于需要进行额外预处理（需要使用塑料袋或气泡膜包装）的具有有效期的商品，必须在经过预处理的商品或商品包装外部粘贴印有字号至少为 36 号的有效期的标签。

注意： 每个纸箱中的每个 ASIN 只能有一个有效期。只要每个 ASIN 仅有一个保质期，即可在同一纸箱中配送多个 ASIN。

注意： 如果您的商品没有足够的位置粘贴 36 磅字体标签，可采用其他预处理方式，例如：聚乙烯塑料袋包装或气泡膜包装。有关更多信息，请参阅包装小件商品。

具有有效期的商品的贴标

对于具有有效期的商品，请遵循以下指南：

• 有效期的显示格式必须是 MM-DD-YYYY 或 MM-YYYY。仅提供批号是不够的。

• 如果有效期为其他格式，您必须以正确格式打印有效期标签，不得覆盖原始有效期。

• 任何打印的制造日期必须明确表明其为制造日期，或者您必须以正确的格式为商品贴标，注明制造日期和有效期。

• 最好使用数字日期格式。但有效期的月份也可采用字母缩写的形式（如 DD-JAN-YYYY）。

• 所有原厂包装箱子、内装多件商品的箱子和展示箱以及其中的每件商品或捆绑商品上都必须注有有效期。

其余信息针对的是使用亚马逊配送（亚马逊物流）的卖家。

所有具有有效期的库存都必须贴有亚马逊条形码标签。此类商品包括：

• 具有有效期的商品

• 消费类商品

• 外用商品，如护肤品、肥皂、洗发水和化妆品

• 预处理后条形码不可扫描的商品

您可以自行打印亚马逊条形码并将其粘贴到商品上，也可以注册亚马逊物流贴标服务，亚马逊将为您的合格库存粘贴条形码，并按件收取费用。有关更多信息，请参阅使用亚马逊条形码追踪库存和亚马逊物流贴标服务。

重要： 如果未在经过预处理的商品外部标注有效期，可能会导致我们为商品重新贴标，但因此而产生的额外费用需要由您承担。

请注意：

• 我们的系统将采用协调世界时 (UTC) 存储有效期信息。由于时区转换，包装箱标签上的日期可能与您最初输入的日期有所不同。

• 如果商品的生产日期或有效期的呈现方式不符合要求，可能会造成商品接收延迟，或商品在收到时已经过期。

注意： 要符合亚马逊物流的要求，食品和饮料类商品以及运送时包含食品或饮料的商品必须采用分批控制方法，并且剩余保质期必须至少超过 90 天。

运至亚马逊运营中心时将于 50 天内过期的商品会被标记为由亚马逊弃置。亚马逊不会将要弃置的商品退还给您。

Expiration-dated inventory

It is important to adhere to our policy before listing expiration-dated inventory. Failure to comply may result in listings or account enforcement.

Important: For FBA sellers, failure to comply with FBA product preparation requirements, safety requirements, and product restrictions may result in the refusal of inventory at the Amazon fulfillment center, disposal or return of inventory, blocking of future shipments to the fulfillment center, or charging for preparation or for noncompliance at the fulfillment center.

Expiration-dated product definition

All topical and consumable products (including nutritional supplements), whether for human or animal consumption, are considered by Amazon to be subject to expiration, even if an expiration date is not indicated on the packaging. This includes:

• Consumable products

• Topical products such as skin creams, soaps, shampoos, and cosmetics

Amazon considers a best-by or sell-by date with the equivalent of an expiration date.

Inventory in the Health and Beauty category with a Period After Opening (PAO) symbol (image below) is considered expiration dated.

Important: Expiration-dated products intended for regular application or consumption or sold in bulk/bundles packages must be received by the customer with sufficient time for use. For example, a 240-count bottle of daily supplements must be received by the customer at least 240 days before expiration.

For FBA items, the remaining shelf life must include the consumption period in addition to 90 days remaining. For example, a 240-count bottle of daily supplements mut have a remaining shelf life of 240 days + an additional 90 days at the time of check-in at the fulfillment center.

Prepping expiration-dated products

Expiration-dated products must be fully enclosed and sealed in packaging suitable for shipping.

Expiration-dated products that require additional prep, such as poly bagging or bubble wrap, must have labels with expiration dates in 36-point font or larger applied to the outside of the product prep or packaging.

Note: Each carton can have only expiration date per ASIN. Multiple ASINs can be shipped in the same carton as long as each ASIN has only one expiration date.

Note: If your product does not have enough room to stick 36-point font label, you may use additional prepping like Poly bagging or Bubble Wrap. For more information please refer to Packaging Small Products.

Labeling expiration-dated products

Please follow these guidelines for expiration-dated products:

• Expiration dates must be displayed in the format MM-DD-YYYY or MM-YYYY. Lot numbers alone are insufficient.

• If the expiration date is in a different format, you must print a label with the expiration date in the correct format without covering the original expiration date.

• Any printed manufactured date must be clear that it is manufacturing date or you must label the product specifying the manufacturing date and the expiration date in the correct format.

• Numerical date formats are preferred. However, expiration dates that are stated with an alphabetical abbreviation for the month (for example, DD-JAN-YYYY) are acceptable.

• All case packs, multi-packs, and display boxes must have the expiration date on the box or bundle, as well as on each individual item inside the box or bundle.

The remaining information is for Sellers utilizing Fulfilled by Amazon (FBA)

All expiration-dated inventory requires an Amazon Barcode label. This category is comprised of:

• Products with a n expiration date

• Consumable products

• Topical products such as skin creams, soaps, shampoos, and cosmetics

• Products that are prepped so that the barcode cannot be scanned

You can print Amazon barcodes and apply them to your products yourself, or sign up for FBA Label Service and Amazon will apply barcodes to your eligible inventory with a per-item fee. For more information, see Use an Amazon barcode to track inventory and FBA Label Service

Important: Failure to include the expiration date on the outside of the prepped item may result in the item being re-labeled at additional cost to you.

Please note:

• Our system stores the expiration-date information in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Due to the time-zone conversion, the date on the box label might differ from what you originally entered.

• Failure to specify the manufactured date or expiration date on a product might cause delays in receiving your products or it may cause products to be received as expired.

Note: To be eligible for FBA, food and beverage products and products that ship with food or beverages must be lot-controlled and have a minimum remaining shelf life that is greater than 90 days.

Items within 50 days of the expiration date at the time of arrival will be marked for disposal by Amazon. Inventory subject to disposal cannot be returned to you.
