Product Size and Fulfillment Center Type

What are the dimensions for products to be eligible to be stored and shipped from a Sort Fulfillment Center (with the Kiva robots) vs the Non-Sort Fulfillment Centers (with people walking around manually picking products)? Are the costs to receive, store, pick, pack, and fulfill products the same for Sort FCs and Non-Sort FCs?

Are the rates quoted in the below link the same for all FC types?

Hi @Seller_ULRGiYfPaQ9xt,

I've searched through the help pages but couldn't find any mention of different Fulfillment Center Types.

The FBA calculator doesn't make this distinction either: https://sellercentral.amazon.com/hz/fba/profitabilitycalculator/index?lang=en_US

I also checked the Selling Partner API documentation, specifically the getMyFeesEstimateForASIN page (https://developer-docs.amazon.com/sp-api/lang-de_DE/reference/getmyfeesestimateforasin), but found no reference to different Fulfillment Center Types.

I'm quite interested to hear if anyone else has insights about this. For now, it seems this isn't something sellers need to worry about.

Kind regards, Michael
