An FCL (full container load) direct delivery to Amazon is only possible if:

1. You are importing goods via ocean FCL.

2. You were assigned one fulfillment center in Amazon Seller Central when you created a shipment plan.

Note: If you imported goods via ocean FCL but Amazon assigned you more than one fulfillment center__, you will be using either Amazon LTL or Flexport LTL.

3. You have your supplier label your shipment at origin

Note: If the shipment is not labeled at origin, it will have to be transloaded and direct delivery to Amazon will not be possible.

3. Download the box labels and send them to your supplier so they can label your shipment at origin. If labels are not applied at origin, direct delivery will not be possible. The shipment will need to be transloaded so labels can be applied at a warehouse.
