There are three groups of products on Amazon: allowed, prohibited and requiring confirmation.
⠀
Those requiring confirmation include a group of products that are most often counterfeited, as well as products that are prohibited from sale in some states.
⠀
If your product meets the requirements, you need to write a letter to Support to obtain permission to sell.
⠀
This category includes the following products:
• DVD
• video
• clocks/watches
• wine
• sunglasses

⠀
There are 36 subcategories of prohibited items. These categories are also divided into: goods that can not be sold rather than can, and goods that absolutely cannot be sold.
⠀
For example, Amazon bans the sale of lottery tickets and currency slot machines. BUT, it is allowed to sell non-functional slot machines as toys or for display.
