▲ Video account attention: cross-border navigation It is learned that the Shanghai Municipal Health Commission recently reported 5 local confirmed cases involving Pudong Airport. It is understood that passenger flights at Pudong Airport are still operating normally, but cargo flights have been affected to a certain extent .
The airport notified that all international cargo and passenger-to-cargo outbound operations have been suspended, and the resumption time is to be determined; the unloading of inbound cargo flights will be delayed after landing . ▲ The picture comes from the Internet Due to the strengthening of epidemic control measures, the cargo handling efficiency of Pudong Airport will be greatly reduced in a short period of time, which is expected to cause cargo backlogs and further increases in freight rates. In recent months, the price of sea and air freight has increased one after another, and the continued high freight rates have made many sellers anxious. However, to make matters worse, logistics delays have also continued to intensify. The delivery time was suddenly extended and the front desk display kept jumping around! Recently, many sellers have reported that Amazon's delivery efficiency has been seriously delayed . One seller said that the front desk showed that the delivery time of the goods was suddenly extended. All the available inventory found in the back desk was allocated to warehouses in the central, eastern and western United States. However, the front desk delivery time was quite different from similar products. After changing the zip codes of various regions, the delivery time remained unchanged.
▲ The picture comes from Zhiwubuyan Coincidentally, a seller also reported a similar situation. The seller's product was initially stored in the TEB6 warehouse in the eastern United States. After a period of sales, Amazon transferred all the goods to the SLC2 warehouse in the western United States. ▲ The picture comes from Zhiwubuyan After the product was adjusted, problems also emerged: 1. After entering the same delivery address at the front desk, the product's delivery time is shown as September 3 at the earliest, while competitors' products basically arrive around August 25. 2. The SCL2 warehouse that received the goods belongs to UT, located in the western United States. The seller used the zip code of the neighboring California and found that the earliest delivery time was September 3rd. However, using the zip code of a place in New York that is farther away, it was found that it could be delivered on August 26th. 3. The seller observed the delivery time of competitors and also entered different zip codes in the east and west of the United States. The delivery time span was not so large. Regardless of the zip code used, the goods can basically be delivered around August 26. 4. The product delivery time displayed on the front desk is sometimes normal and sometimes abnormal. For example, for the same address and zip code, it was shown as delivered on September 3rd one day, and on August 26th the next day. Many sellers admitted that they have often encountered extended delivery times and even lost items in recent times. However, some sellers have observed that large items and third-party sellers are more likely to encounter these problems, while standard items and self-operated products have hardly changed. It is understood that the logistics situation has become increasingly severe recently. Previously, Amazon Australia issued an announcement, announcing that its warehouse XAU1 will stop receiving goods after August 26, reminding sellers to transfer goods. ▲ The picture comes from the seller communication group As the epidemic continues to fluctuate, air transportation in various places has issued relevant notices. In the future, sellers may face the double dilemma of delays + sharp price increases . While sellers are troubled by numerous logistics problems, Amazon seems to be planning various actions. Amazon Germany VAT certificate address verification It is learned that many sellers on the German site have recently received emails from Amazon, asking sellers to verify whether the address on the VAT certificate is consistent with the address on the Amazon backend business license.
Amazon said in the email that the new German VAT law requires that the seller's company name and address be matched with the database of the German Federal Central Tax Office (BZSt). Sellers need to ensure that the data in the seller platform matches the data stored by BZSt. ▲ The picture comes from Zhiwubuyan It is understood that most of the sellers who received the email had wrong addresses. When sellers receive the email, they need to first check whether their tax number address is consistent with the backend business license address. 1. The information is indeed inconsistent The seller needs to go to the tax bureau to change the relevant information. 2. The information is generally consistent, but there are errors such as incorrect order, typos, and spaces. Write an English email and send it to [email protected] to explain the specific situation and make sure to include your ID. 3. The seller's platform address is in Chinese, while the tax number document uses pinyin or English. It is indeed the same address but is judged to have failed verification. Write an English email to [email protected] and provide relevant explanations and supporting documents. Although this sudden address verification email caught many sellers off guard, as long as they check and change the corresponding information according to the regulations, they will not be too embarrassed. However, it should be noted that if the processing is not timely within the prescribed two-month period, the store's sales authority will be restricted by Amazon. What do you think about this?
