This post covers the steps to ensure you are compliant for selling restricted lighting products on Amazon. Amazon continuously updates its Restricted Products Policies to comply with new legislation and regulations. Product listings identified as noncompliant with these policies are removed and require seller action to be reinstated. One recent policy update relates to the Department of Energy’s (DOE) energy conservation standards for general service light bulbs stating that your product has been identified as noncompliant to energy conservation standards, which Amazon prohibits. These violations remain on a seller’s account health dashboard until they are acknowledged or appealed. The ASIN will remain deactivated and unavailable for purchase if no appeal is submitted. Sellers must address these violations quickly with the requested documentation to continue selling products in the lighting category and keep products active and available for purchase.
