Amazon FBA shipment (through DHL) - 4 boxes shipment with the same tracking number problem
Sending a shipment from India to USA amazon warehouse for FBA. The shipment is a multibox shipment with 4 boxes. Amazon requires me to give unique tracking numbers for all 4 boxes but the DHL labels have the same tracking number for all 4.
What should I do?

You should send them to yourself. There are dozens on dozens of postings here about how product was sent from overseas directly to amazon and had all kinds of issues. Missing items in the shipment, wrong items in the boxes, missing stuff, mislabeled, etc...
Once you have them you can put it on one pallet to send it in. If you are determined to ship directly to amazon ask DHL about palletizing the freight. DHL used to have an LTL department but I haven't used them in years to know if they still do that.

Hi @Seller_MzKZKlOcHBr9M,
Dominic from Amazon here, happy to help. You should be either sending the products to yourself to ensure quality and label accuracy or a warehouse in the US that provides FBA prep services. If you are determined to ship right to the Fulfillment Center you should put the same tracking number for all 4 boxes. But I recommend you do not do that.
Best,
Dominic

@Seller_MzKZKlOcHBr9M: I am having the same issue with unique tracking number needed and DHL provides only 1 for 4-5 boxes. Did you find a solution for this? It keeps putting hits on my account for not providing tracking numbers.
