You can register and start selling.
📋 Amazon Seller Account Requirements (India)
To register as an Amazon seller in India, you’ll need:
1. ✅ Email ID and Mobile Number
A working email address (used for login and communication)
A mobile number linked to your bank account

Mandatory if you’re selling taxable goods.
GST exemption is allowed for books, handlooms, and some exempted categories, but approval is still needed.
3. 🧾 PAN Card
For individuals: Personal PAN Card
For companies: Company PAN Card
4. 🏢 Business Name and Legal Identity
You can register as:
Individual/Proprietor
Partnership firm
Private Limited Company
LLP
5. 🏦 Bank Account
Bank account in the name of the business or individual.
Bank account must support online transactions (NEFT/RTGS)
6. 📍 Business Address
Physical business address (used for shipping, invoicing, etc.)
Rental agreement or ownership proof may be required in some cases.
7. 📄 Signature and Documents

1. International Credit Card (with international transactions enabled)
2. Passport or National ID
3. Valid Phone Number & Email

Once you’ve submitted all the documents, Amazon performs:

Tax validation (GST or international TIN)
This can take 24–72 hours.

Selecting the wrong business type
Not enabling international transactions on credit card (for global selling)
