Understanding ASIN Creation: Guidelines & Limitations
Hello sellers community,
Josh from Amazon here. I'd like to start an important discussion about ASIN creation and management to help avoid potential issues.
As per our current policies, sellers are subject to weekly ASIN creation limits to protect the customer shopping experience. These limits remain until you establish a sales history with Amazon. Additionally, if you have a large number of listings without sales, your ability to create new listings may be restricted.
For brand-registered products, there are specific requirements:
- New ASINs must be for active (not discontinued) products
- Products must be offered by authorized sellers or available in other retail stores
- Non-standard multipacks aren't allowed unless offered by authorized brand sellers
For more information you can go to ASIN creation policy.
Have you encountered any challenges with these limitations? What has been your experience managing your product catalog within these guidelines?
Let's share experiences while keeping within our community guidelines.
Best regards,
Josh

Josh from Amazon here. I'd like to start an important discussion about ASIN creation and management to help avoid potential issues.......
How about a more important topic for ASIN's
1) how get a Brand listing back after a hack, made easy step by step - as CS have no clue
2) how to update images in your listing after the content creator changes to F everyone else on the listing - so you do not ship what you see- instead of what the content creator has changed it to.
3) Have the BOT's comb the listing BEFORE going live and HIGHLIGHT any/all words/phrases/images ect that it deems unacceptable so the listing can be CORRECTED before being suspended
4) When a NB tries to open an account they must prove they have been thru Seller U Before being allowed to list and MUST sign off that they comprehend about retail arbitrage and ungating on this platform.
I'm sure others have a few things to add.....
