Anyone who registers for a seller central account must produce a utility bill that clearly shows their business name/personal name and address. This bill must have the same name and address as the business for sellers who have formed an LLC. Utility bills are required by Amazon to authenticate a seller’s identification and prevent fraudulent behavior on the platform. Amazon accepts the following types of utility bills:
It’s worth noting that Amazon doesn’t accept cell phone bills, and all statements must be from the last 90 days!
Getting a utility bill is simple if you live at or own your business address. For many sellers, however, this is not the case, and the utility bill process is more difficult. If you live in an apartment or a rental, for example, getting a utility bill in your name rather than your landlord’s can be difficult. To avoid this, I recommend setting up internet service under your company’s name and having bills sent to your company’s address, which is usually your rental. If your company address is different from your home address, you can provide a service address for your house while keeping your billing address the same.
I recommend Wyoming Registered Agents if you want to register your LLC in a different state and get a company address. You can form an LLC with Wyoming Registered Agents in five to fifteen minutes for $149 up front and $49 each year. When you create an LLC, you also acquire a physical US address in Wyoming for your firm, where mail, such as utility bills, can be sent and forwarded to you.
