About this site

Purpose of this site

The Amazon Ungating Checker is a free, independent tool that helps Amazon sellers understand what is typically required to get approval (ungating) to sell in a restricted category or brand. Amazon gates many categories - and individual brands - behind an approval process, and sellers often do not know which documents they will need until they are blocked.

Common requirements include invoices from a verified supplier, a minimum purchase quantity, brand authorisation letters or other documents that vary by category. This tool helps you anticipate the likely paperwork before you apply.

How it works

The checker runs entirely in your browser. You select the category or situation; the tool outlines the documents and conditions commonly requested for ungating - such as supplier invoices, quantities and authorisation - so you can prepare. Requirements vary and change, so this is a guide, not an official Amazon decision.

Independent and neutral

This is an independently operated site that builds simple tools to remove the friction from selling on large marketplaces. We are not affiliated with Amazon, and the checker does not collect or store your answers; everything is processed locally in your browser.

Before you rely on it

This is a planning guide only - the exact ungating requirements are set by Amazon and vary by category, brand and account, so the result here is an informational estimate, not professional advice. Please review our disclaimer and confirm current requirements in Amazon Seller Central.
