Pet food, supplements, and toys each carry their own rules. Here is the 2026 pre-launch checklist.
Marketplace note (United Kingdom): UKCA marking post-Brexit; UK cosmetic product notification and toy safety (UKCA) requirements apply.
Pet food and supplements are regulated by the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine; labels need ingredient panels and a nutritional adequacy statement (AAFCO).
EU Regulation 183/2005 (hygiene) and 767/2009 (labeling) apply; claims must be substantiated.
'Natural' needs a defensible meaning; 'vet-approved' needs a real endorsement; 'grain-free' is a formulation fact, not a health claim.
Non-toxic materials; small-parts/choking note where relevant; secure any batteries.
The FDA does not 'approve' pet food but regulates ingredients and labeling; AAFCO standards are expected.
Only with a genuine veterinarian endorsement; otherwise remove it.
Only if truthful and substantiated; pair with specifics to avoid misleading claims.
Paste the ASIN or draft copy into a compliance scanner that flags drug-style and unsupported claims against Amazon's policy.
Selling on amazon.co.uk (GBP) means these local rules apply in addition to Amazon's global listing policies:
Pet note: For pet products, feed/Supplement claims and material safety (especially chews and beds) are market-specific and increasingly audited.
