Effective January 1, 2026, requirements for products packaged with lithium-ion batteries will be updated to comply with the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and to ensure air transportation safety.
Per our Business Service Agreement, you’re required to provide accurate and complete product information for each product you offer. If you sell products that ship with a lithium-ion battery, you must provide the requested battery compliance information by December 31, 2025 to ensure your products can continue to be fulfilled by air.
To list products packaged with lithium-ion batteries, you must complete the battery compliance questions asked when you list or re-list products for Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA). Specifically, lithium-ion batteries with a Watt-hour rating exceeding 2.7 Wh packed with products must have a 30% or less state of charge. If we’re unable to confirm whether your product complies with the state of charge requirement, your product will only be fulfilled by ground transportation until further notice.
To learn more about the battery compliance questions, go to Dangerous goods required information and documentation (hazmat).
For more information about lithium batteries, go to Requirements for lithium batteries and products powered by lithium batteries.
Our Amazon SEO Consultant, Amazon Product Listing, and Amazon PPC Management services ensure your lithium-ion battery products meet new air-shipping requirements while staying fully optimized for visibility.
