eBay U.S. fulfillment for international sellers

International eBay sellers can apply to store products with FulfillHarbor in Florida and ship orders to U.S. buyers. eBay is a supported store connection. You keep responsibility for your seller account and listings, while we receive approved stock, prepare parcels and process customer returns. A U.S. company is not required for the warehouse application.

Check your eBay account before sending stock

Warehouse access and eBay selling eligibility are separate. eBay's seller guidance covers eligible countries and account verification. Use accurate business, identity and payout details for the account you operate. An assigned warehouse address does not establish a different country of residence or guarantee account approval.

Our international onboarding guide explains the warehouse requirements. Have the store and its payment arrangements ready before moving inventory that depends on those sales.

List the actual item location

eBay's item location policy requires accurate information about where a product will ship from, including the city, country and postal code. The location needs to be consistent in the listing, and uploaded tracking must match it.

Wait for the Florida stock to be checked in before offering it as available for local dispatch through our warehouse. A delivery scan from the incoming carrier is followed by our receipt and quantity checks. Use the location information for the stock that will fulfill the listing; do not assume that every item in a mixed overseas and U.S. inventory has the same dispatch location.

Agree the handling arrangements before setting dispatch promises in listings. Allow for the time you need to choose a shipping service and approve payment.

What happens when an order arrives

After you connect a supported eBay account, orders import into your dashboard. We prepare the parcel and record its packed measurements and packaging. You review the available services and itemized cost, choose a service and approve payment. We purchase the label and dispatch after those steps.

Tracking is available after dispatch, and supported shipment updates can return to the store. Review the first order through the process so you can check the product, address and tracking information against the listing.

How the U.S. returns address fits eBay's policy

eBay has a specific policy for items shipped from the U.S. when the return address is abroad. The policy describes alternatives: provide a U.S. return address, offer a prepaid return label, or resolve the return with a partial or full refund without requiring the item back. It does not apply the same requirement to every item shipped from outside the U.S.

Approved fulfillment customers receive an assigned U.S. return address. We inspect returns, restock resellable products and flag damage. You handle the buyer's request and refund through eBay. Who pays return postage depends on the return circumstances, your policy and eBay's rules.

Read the U.S. returns guide before updating the address and instructions in your seller account. The $5 processing charge is per returned item. Return postage, storage and a later shipment to another buyer are separate.

Warehouse prices for eBay sellers

Postage, shipping service fees, packaging and additional work are separate. The lower pick-and-pack rate applies only to orders from the 101st onward. Storage continues while your goods occupy a bin, including months with no orders. There is no setup fee or monthly order minimum. See the full prices and applicable extra charges, including inactive storage and SKU space agreements.

eBay selling fees are separate from warehouse charges. For a useful margin estimate, include those fees, incoming freight and import costs as well as the cost of dispatching each U.S. order.

Prepare your first incoming shipment

International applicants provide a valid passport, contact or business details, a payment method, product and inventory-ownership declarations, and the signed agreement. Wait for approval and receiving instructions. We handle carton and bin inventory; pallet storage is unavailable.

Register the products, quantities and inbound shipment before dispatch, adding carrier tracking when it becomes available. The inbound shipment guide covers the receiving process.

You arrange international transport and U.S. customs clearance separately. FulfillHarbor does not provide customs clearance. See the transport and customs checklist for details to discuss with your chosen provider.
