Emergency Response: Listing Suppression

A suppressed listing is a "soft" removal where your product is no longer searchable. This is usually due to a policy violation or a data error.

Common Causes

  • Missing main images or non-compliant backgrounds.
  • Title length exceeding character limits.
  • Prohibited keywords in the backend.
  • Missing vital attributes (e.g., brand, manufacturer).

Recovery Steps

1. Check the "Fix Your Products" section in Seller Central. 2. Audit your listing against current Amazon Style Guides. 3. If the fix doesn't propagate in 24 hours, open a Case with Catalog Support.
