Why sell internationally on Amazon?
The entry into international sales means extending your reach considerably. Instead of only being present in your home market, you can sell your products on different markets. Amazon marketplaces and thus benefit from the high demand in other countries. Amazon offers you a variety of tools and programs to facilitate global trade – including the European Shipping Network (EFN) and the Pan-EU program. With these programs, you can offer your products throughout Europe without having to keep separate stocks in each country.
SPACEGOATS helps you to use this infrastructure so that you can maintain an overview and focus on the essentials: expanding your business. Our experts know how you can FBA business in such a way that it meets the requirements of international trade and remains profitable at the same time.
Logistics made easy: shipping through Amazon (FBA)
A decisive advantage for international sales is the use of Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA)-program. With FBA, Amazon takes care of storage, shipping and customer service for you. This saves you the trouble of setting up your own logistics network and allows you to concentrate on marketing and further developing your product range. Especially when expanding into other countries, FBA is invaluable as it significantly reduces the complexity of country-specific shipping and customs regulations.
SPACEGOATS completely relieves brands of the challenges of online sales by purchasing products directly in the B2B process and then distributing them in over 11 countries using the Amazon logistics network. Brands don’t have to worry about anything; we take care of the entire process from receiving the goods to selling them.
Pan-EU and EFN: The best options for European marketplaces
If you want to offer your products on several European marketplaces, the Pan-EU program one of the best options. With this program, you can store your goods centrally and Amazon takes care of distribution to the various European countries. This means you can benefit from short delivery times and Prime shipping without having to worry about storage in each country individually.
The European Freight Network (EFN) is another option where you store your products in a central country and Amazon takes care of cross-border delivery. This is particularly practical if you want to start with just a few countries and gradually expand your presence.
Mastering the challenges of international sales
Of course, international sales also come with their own challenges. This includes compliance with various import regulations, customs regulations and legal framework conditions. The sale on international marketplaces also requires that your product detail pages be adapted to the respective language and cultural standards. This is important to create trust with your customers and increase sales.
Another point is currency conversion. With the Amazon currency converter you can convert your earnings from international sales into your local currency. This ensures transparency and helps you to keep track of your finances. SPACEGOATS offers you support by helping you to optimize international payment transactions and minimize exchange rate risks.
How to get off to a successful start: tips for global expansion
The first step into worldwide sale is a thorough market analysis. Find out which of your products are particularly in demand in certain countries and what adjustments are required to facilitate market entry. It is not only the product details that play a role here, but also the marketing strategy. Different markets require different approaches in order to be successful.
SPACEGOATS is at your side to guide you through these steps. We take over the market analysis and help you to adapt your product listings so that they meet the standards and expectations of the respective marketplace. Our team ensures that your international sales run smoothly and that you can concentrate on growing your business.
Taxes and compliance: what you need to watch out for
Another aspect of international sales is tax liability. In Europe, Amazon often handles VAT processing in the respective countries when using Pan-EU and EFN, but as a seller you are responsible for correct registration and compliance with local tax regulations. This means that you may need several tax numbers in different countries.
Value added tax (VAT): With SPACEGOATS you no longer have to worry about VAT. We conduct B2B business on German soil, and we handle all B2C sales, both nationally and internationally, for you. This frees you from the complex obligations of VAT registration and processing in various countries.
Product compliance: Even if the final distribution does not take place via SPACEGOATS, we offer a comprehensive portfolio of compliance services. We support you in complying with international product standards and regulatory requirements to minimize legal risks and facilitate your market entry.
