How to Ship to Amazon FBA Step-by-Step with JCL Cargo

Shipping to Amazon FBA can unlock global sales but if you don' t follow Amazon' s rules, your goods could be rejected, delayed, or fined.
At JCL Cargo, we make FBA shipping smooth, compliant, and worry-free. Here' s how it works, step-by-step.

Step 1: Plan Your Shipment
Start in your Amazon Seller Central account.
Create an FBA shipment;
Enter units per SKU and total cartons;
Select your prep and label settings;
Download Amazon-compliant box labels;
Assign the destination warehouse (like BHX4 or LTN1).

Step 2: Prep Your Goods
FBA has strict requirements for:
Carton weight and size;
Polybagging and sealing;
Fragile item protection;
Label placement and format.
JCL offers a full FBA prep service, we' ll label, bag, bundle, and pack everything to Amazon' s exact standards.

Step 3: Book Shipping with JCL
Once your inventory is prepped, JCL arranges:
Pickup from your supplier (in the UK or overseas);
Consolidated freight to the UK (air or sea);
Customs clearance;
Final-mile delivery to Amazon' s receiving centre;
You get real-time updates at every stage.

Step 4: Handle Customs & Delivery Rules
For international shipments, Amazon doesn' t act as importer of record.
That means:
You (or JCL) must be the registered importer;
Import VAT and duty must be paid before delivery;
Delivery must follow Amazon' s booking slot system;
JCL handles customs, VAT, and booking with Amazon directly.

Step 5: Track Your Results
Once your shipment is checked in, Amazon adds your stock to inventory.
Orders go live;
Prime badge activates;
Customers can buy with fast Amazon fulfillment;
And you? You can focus on sales while JCL handles the rest.

Amazon sellers trust JCL to keep their inventory moving from factory to fulfillment. Get your FBA freight plan at jclcargo.com. JCL Cargo, Taking your cargo, personally. And getting it Prime-ready.
