There are plenty of methods to ship from your supplier directly to Amazon, but this is my favorite that I use. I like to send the products to a freight forwarder in the US before heading to Amazon, so I can have my inspection service check out the products. Make sure to treat your business LIKE a business! Quality is super important.
Thanks for the info, very useful. Question, so how do you make the connection between your supplier and the freight forwarder? Does the freight forwarder pick up the products at the factory location in China??
@@danieldeleon884 I think it depends how you set it up. From what I have learned so far, there are 3 options. 1. The manufacturer in China can leave the product at their factory, and you have to figure out how to get it from their warehouse in China to Amazon FBA in USA. 2. The manufacturer can take care of shipping up until it reaches the port in the USA and then you figure out how to get it from the port to the FBA center. 3. The manufacture figures out the shipping from Chine directly to the FBA warehouse in USA. I have herd that #1 is the most difficult. #2. is the cheapest. #3 is easiest but most expensive.
@@danieldeleon884 When ordering from Alibaba don't you just put in the freight forwarder's address and once it has arrived at the freight forwarders address they can do the rest.
Thanks for details on shipping. I’m learning Amazon FBA, this video is very helpful. You are a great teacher, you repeat important areas which is very helpful for new comers. You are really helping people from your heart. God gave you great heart. May God bless you and your family. Thanks
You could also just have product shipped to your house for a variety of reasons including quality check. Do all labels yourself then send to an AMAZON warehouse
I'm confused on the Barcode part. I searched online and from what I know you have to buy the GTIN barcodes or something similar, do the barcodes that amazon gives replace that?
You need to buy GS1 barcodes from GS1, Those are the barcodes you use to to to generate FNSKU labels, and then finally make a shipping plan. At inspectaman we scan the barcodes when we inspect your products to make sure they work
hi,dear! If your goods are from China, I hope you can take a look at our company if you have time. Our name is Zhenxing International Logistics (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., which focuses on providing sea and air transportation services for cross-border e-commerce. The company was established in September 2014 and is headquartered in Shenzhen, the central city of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area. At the beginning of its establishment, it mainly focused on traditional international logistics business, involving traditional shipping, air transportation, and large-scale engineering equipment transportation. It has accumulated rich shipping companies, airlines and overseas tail delivery resources, providing services for many well-known domestic central enterprises and private enterprises .
The best video I have watched on this. super clear and straightforward! I am only still wondering on when to get freight forwarder involved and what to say to make it super simple for them.
Thank you! When you begin turning it into a profitable business and want to expand your orders that’s when it’s a good idea to get them involved. Otherwise, I would recommend managing from your home/business to validate that selling on Amazon is worth it for you.

So if my products are coming in boxes by UPS from china, i still need a freight forwarder? i thought that they just go directly to the fba warehouse from china.
If its FOB price then china supplier has responsibility to send your shipment upto their port only, then freight forwarder will handle from the china port to fba. Hope i am not missing anything here 😊
For this example on restocking your iPhone case inventory with 200 units, do you send your manufacturer 200 Sku labels (barcodes)? its the same label right just copied 200 times? ˙ope I explain myself correctly !! Very great content thank you very much for sharing!!!
So using fright forward how do I let them know where to pick it up? Where does China send it?? And why can't you just have China send it directly to Amazon?
This is a great video, thank you for sharing your insights! Does a product for Amazon FBA need a UPC and the FNSKU, or can you pick one or the other? I was considering private label and would add the UPC to the package design, if that's all that's needed.
Hi! I enjoy watching your videos on how to launch a product on Amazon. I was wondering whast other reasons are there to use Freight Forwarder other than the fact that it eliminates ourselves as the middleman? I need to know if there is any!
Hello Josh I’m new to your channel, love the content. I need your guidance, I’m planning on selling on Amazon. Do you think I should first buy the product from Alibaba first before I open a Amazon seller account?
Awesome video!!! One quick question I had is that when you get your sample to your house for inspection do you use the freight forwarder to ship it to your house or the DDP to ship the packages from China directly to your house?
No I just have the supplier ship directly to my location! I only use the freight forwarder if I’m not going to see the product and need someone to inspect it

So 1.) when you are placing your order with the manufacturer, do you give them the address of the freight forwarder? 2.) And do you create your listing and shipping plan before ordering from the manufacturer? Thanks.
What about the barcodes that you’ll need to buy? I think those some of the steps you’ve skipped & jumped directly to somewhere like send/replenish inventory, where I’m stuck.. it says “Set Quantity, Prepare Products, Label Products & so on
Hey Josh! Thank you so much for these amazing videos! Really great content 👏👏 I’ve got a question: do you send the SKU barcodes to the manufacturer before or after purchasing the products? I mean, how can we be assured that they are indeed applying the barcodes before shipping to the US? Thank you!
Thanks! You send them after you purchase the product and have created your listing (if it's a new listing). You have to request them to put the labels on and sometimes they'll charge you a small amount to do that.
Josh, For air courier to USA FBA warehouse, who do you use ? How much it will cost ? Can provide contact ? The reason I ask this is because if I ask them to air courier out for me, they can under cut me later and sell directly in USA themselves Agree ?
Nice video,. Quick question, if I purchase product from Alibaba than one ship using Amazon FBA, then what process do I have to do for this? do I need to list the products on Amazon manually? or it will automatically add to a number I ship the product to Amazon warehouse?
You need to create a shipment plan, the use the labels from the shipment plan to stick on your cartons so that when the products are delivered to amazon they know whose they are. The process is not complicated and maybe you just need a little help.
hey what if my freight forwarder is in china ? do you recommend then him sending it to FBA (UK in my case) directly? or its not an option.? thank you amazing videos for first time seller everything is mystery even the most straight forward things.
Do you have a video where you are doing an Alibaba directly to FBA warehouse? I like this one but you just replenish your inventory... I’m just trying to make sure the correct order of purchasing from Alibaba to the FBA warehouse. Thank you!!! Love the vids!
Thanks! You should be able to use this method to do that. I plan to make another video here in early 2021 on how to do exactly what you're saying. If you need answers in the meantime feel free to join our patreon group and I can walk you through it (link in description). 👍
@@DebtToDollars so I have to give my supplier the address of my forwarder too? And when my forwarder received my products from china, how they will send it to the amazon fba? Please help.
Hi Josh. Thank you for that great video. May I ask you if the value of the goods is above 2500$ where do you buy custom bond and do you buy single entry or continuous bond?
Hey Josh! thanks heaps for this amazing clip that you put together. Just a quick question I have is if I’m selling a garment that involves different sizes and colours, would it require all different product codes? i.e unique code for each colour and size variations?
LOVE your video, super helpful but I do have a quick question, is a freight forwarder basically someone that just inspects the items? Could I just hire a inspection at the manufacture, and have my manufacture ship directly to amazon warehouse for me if I give them the labels, and in that case would I use the China manufacture address as the ship from address? Thanks so much.
Thanks for another great video. If we use a freight forwarder, will they chose how are they going to deliver the product to the Amazon's warehouse? In the video, it seems that we decide to use UPS. So, do we make that decision?
Hello! Should I have a third party Inspector check my products before my supplier ships it out to me? because if I don't do that, and I inspect my products myself.. wouldn't it be too late to send it back to the supplier for them to fix it?
Hi Josh, thank you for your video. It's informative. Quick question. I don't know why my first listing becomes "Inactive listing" and the reason shows "out of stock". I tried to use "send/replenish inventory" to input my first shipping plan, but it seems China's address doesn't. I am sure it is because I did something wrong with my listing, or I didn't put Chinese address correctly. It's directly shipping from China by UPS. Or where can I edit the inventory quantity?
If you’re doing Amazon FBA, your listing will remain inactive and inventory at zero until they receive your products. If the China address doesn’t work, contact seller support to figure out why. Worst case, send it to your business or personal residence and then ship it to amazon
Please i want to ask, why don't we use the Chinese manufacturer, it's easy and it's going to save time and fees I think. please correct me if I'm wrong? why should i use a fright forwarder ?
I been watching your videos for straight 3 days loving them all! I have a question do you have to let the freight forwarder company know that your ordering from China or they will automatically know that? do you pay anything for the freight forwarder?
You'll get the FNSKU labels before the shipping labels. Also, the FNSKU labels can be downloaded at any point once your listing is created and marked as FBA. Check out my video Sunday which shows an even easier method on how to do all of this.
Hello, what about freight forwarding in China? My manufacturer is asking if I'm going to use one from China...i have no idea what that means... Please help!
Great tutorial, thanks! One question, when you send the barcodes to the manufacturer do you actually print them and send a hardcopy or do you email them?
Thanks! I always email them to my supplier. They will then print them out on labels and apply each one. Usually if you order a large enough quantity they won’t even charge you for doing the labeling. This can always be negotiated if they don’t offer it for free upfront.
what I find hard is to understand about labels and where to ship you're products because you don't have any address anywhere ... in special when u do global listing .. where do you send you're products?
Thank you for the video, it is a great help. I have one question, I have my product shipped from Alibaba 20 days ago through sea and the status is still saying " shipped" from day one. So should I be worried? Thank you
I would reach out to your supplier through Alibaba chat and ask them when they expect it to be delivered. Shipping via sea freight typically takes a long time to reach the final destination. I wouldn’t be too worried right now, but make sure to reach out to the supplier to figure out when it should arrive. They will have the most accurate details
Ok one question I sell on amazon but not fba whenever I add a product they ask for the sku # but I didn’t see you enter the sku, it generated it for you... does that happen with fba does amazon make you a random sku for the product?
Are the manufacturers in China typically ok with adding all the labels (bar codes,) as you mentioned? I didn't know you could mail the labels (bar codes) to them?
Yes, the majority will do this for you if you ask and meet their minimum order threshold. Instead of mailing the labels, just send them via email or if you're working through Alibaba do it through the messenger. They'll then print the labels out and apply the label to each product. You should be able to negotiate with them to do it for free.
@@DebtToDollars so I have to give my supplier the address of my forwarder too? And when my forwarder received my products from china, how they will send it to the amazon fba? Please help.
Awesome video! Have 2 questions; if I have my first shipment sent to myself for inspection, how do I know where to send it from there? Do I find a Amazon Center near me and ship via UPS/ FedEx? Can I not do sea shipping unless I have a full container? I know it’s much cheaper than air but want to cross it out of it’s not possible as I’ll have a small order to start with (200 units or so). Thank you!
Once you set up your fulfillment order to Amazon, they’ll tell you which amazon center to send it to. You should have the option to air or sea freight regardless of the quantity size. Your supplier should provide you their options. I recommend having the 200 units shipped to you first if it’s your first order through that supplier. If the quality meets your requirements, then use this method to accelerate the process.
Debt To Dollars thank you so much! If I decide to ship it to me do I then use UPS of FedEx to ship and if so, what does that process look like? Thank you again!
It varies by supplier. My suppliers tend to use DHL if it’s an international shipment. Once you receive it, you can use any carrier to ship it to Amazon.
Debt To Dollars thank you. I will most likely have a 3rd party inspection do it and if product is satisfactory send directly to warehouse. Do you recommend that or sending to yourself? I’m traveling a lot and also have very limited amount of space! Thank you!
PLS somebody help me! I didnt understand that last part where he talked about shipping labels for freight forwarder. What does that mean and where I get those?
You can create a virtual shipping plan first, and then Amazon will give you the warehouse address. Or you can use popular warehouses to ask your supplier to quote you, such as ONT8 or FTW1.
Question: Can I skip out on the Freight Forwarder and have UPS deliver it to Amazon? I had a shipment sent to my house, and UPS delivered it. Can they deliver the next shipment straight to Amazon?
Okay so I’m a beginner I don’t know anything I’m starting from the 0. So my question here is that I order the stuff from Alibaba then ship it and everything then after that when the people like the one they buy them and they finished them what should I do like make another order as the same old stuff or how does it work??

You'll get the FNSKU labels before the shipping labels. Also, the FNSKU labels can be downloaded at any point once your listing is created and marked as FBA. Check out my video Sunday which shows an even easier method on how to do all of this.
Hello, what about freight forwarding in China? My manufacturer is asking if I'm going to use one from China...i have no idea what that means... Please help!
How do you take pictures of the product if it goes straight to the warehouse?
send a sample to yourself or hire someone to photoshop it onto product photo templates
What freight company do you use?
Great tutorial, thanks! One question, when you send the barcodes to the manufacturer do you actually print them and send a hardcopy or do you email them?
Thanks! I always email them to my supplier. They will then print them out on labels and apply each one. Usually if you order a large enough quantity they won’t even charge you for doing the labeling. This can always be negotiated if they don’t offer it for free upfront.
@@DebtToDollars ohh so if i was dealing with alibaba, id have to buy the barcodes and send them to alibaba and they put them on?
@@itsyaboiherman yeah you'll have to send the barcodes to your supplier.
@@DebtToDollars gotcha thanks
Debt To Dollars quick question do you have to get a UPC barcode too on each of your products or is the FNSKU all you need ?
what I find hard is to understand about labels and where to ship you're products because you don't have any address anywhere ... in special when u do global listing .. where do you send you're products?
check out my latest video on shipping from China posted earlier this month. It'll make more sense!
0:24 DAM MY EARS! What out volume! I'm suing!
Please don’t sue 😳
Maybe don’t use earbuds or have your volume cranked all the time
Can you send the products straight to Amazon warehouses without it a forwarded?
Hi, I have a question, when you sell these iPhone cases, do you repackage them or just sell them with the original OPP packaging?
must you absolutely use a FF? why can't I just have the vendor from china send directly the AWH? For a small order that is.
Hi If you use freight forwarder is it ok to use EFW shipping terms wjth suppliers? Confused why would you then want DDP with a freight forwarder?
Thank you for the video, it is a great help. I have one question, I have my product shipped from Alibaba 20 days ago through sea and the status is still saying " shipped" from day one. So should I be worried? Thank you
I would reach out to your supplier through Alibaba chat and ask them when they expect it to be delivered. Shipping via sea freight typically takes a long time to reach the final destination. I wouldn’t be too worried right now, but make sure to reach out to the supplier to figure out when it should arrive. They will have the most accurate details

Ok one question I sell on amazon but not fba whenever I add a product they ask for the sku # but I didn’t see you enter the sku, it generated it for you... does that happen with fba does amazon make you a random sku for the product?
He wasn’t adding a product. He was adding more inventory to an existing product he had
When buying wholesale brand pallets , will the invoice Un-gate my business in that brand ?
Quick question. How would i know the weight of the box if am always ordering different quantity ?
What do you sell?
Are the manufacturers in China typically ok with adding all the labels (bar codes,) as you mentioned? I didn't know you could mail the labels (bar codes) to them?
Yes, the majority will do this for you if you ask and meet their minimum order threshold. Instead of mailing the labels, just send them via email or if you're working through Alibaba do it through the messenger. They'll then print the labels out and apply the label to each product. You should be able to negotiate with them to do it for free.
Debt To Dollars does amazon require a upc code also or is the FNSKU all thats needed ?
@@DebtToDollars so I have to give my supplier the address of my forwarder too? And when my forwarder received my products from china, how they will send it to the amazon fba? Please help.
Are there any disadvantages using a freight forwarder of your supplier vs one locally?
What does "active" mean on FBA inventory? My Locator-dots & dashes, to feel your place on keyboards, are still unavailable. Thanks, michael
My question Is we don't need put any price per item in Amazon seller centre
What if you don’t use a freight forwarder and use the suppliers address will it still work?
Yes it will work, just make sure that we inspect the product first before they leave the factory
What about if you don’t in USA? which address you gonna use?
Awesome video! Have 2 questions; if I have my first shipment sent to myself for inspection, how do I know where to send it from there? Do I find a Amazon Center near me and ship via UPS/ FedEx? Can I not do sea shipping unless I have a full container? I know it’s much cheaper than air but want to cross it out of it’s not possible as I’ll have a small order to start with (200 units or so). Thank you!
Once you set up your fulfillment order to Amazon, they’ll tell you which amazon center to send it to. You should have the option to air or sea freight regardless of the quantity size. Your supplier should provide you their options.
I recommend having the 200 units shipped to you first if it’s your first order through that supplier. If the quality meets your requirements, then use this method to accelerate the process.
Debt To Dollars thank you so much! If I decide to ship it to me do I then use UPS of FedEx to ship and if so, what does that process look like? Thank you again!
It varies by supplier. My suppliers tend to use DHL if it’s an international shipment.
Once you receive it, you can use any carrier to ship it to Amazon.
Debt To Dollars thank you. I will most likely have a 3rd party inspection do it and if product is satisfactory send directly to warehouse. Do you recommend that or sending to yourself? I’m traveling a lot and also have very limited amount of space! Thank you!
Thank you soo much brother 🙏
PLS somebody help me! I didnt understand that last part where he talked about shipping labels for freight forwarder. What does that mean and where I get those?
Question: If the supplier needs the address of Amazon to give me a full quote, how do I know which warehouse and address it's going to?
You can create a virtual shipping plan first, and then Amazon will give you the warehouse address. Or you can use popular warehouses to ask your supplier to quote you, such as ONT8 or FTW1.
Question: Can I skip out on the Freight Forwarder and have UPS deliver it to Amazon?
I had a shipment sent to my house, and UPS delivered it. Can they deliver the next shipment straight to Amazon?
Okay so I’m a beginner I don’t know anything I’m starting from the 0.
So my question here is that I order the stuff from Alibaba then ship it and everything then after that when the people like the one they buy them and they finished them what should I do like make another order as the same old stuff or how does it work??
How much are you spending to have items shipped to you? It seems to be pretty expensive to have samples sent to a home address!
