How to Get GST for Amazon Seller – Registration Process & Requirements

Selling on Amazon can take your products across India — but before you list even a single item, GST registration is mandatory for most Amazon sellers.Getting GST isn’t complicated if you know the steps and documents required, so let’s break it down in a simple way.

Who Needs GST Registration to Sell on Amazon?

If you sell products through Amazon or any e-commerce marketplace in India, you must have a valid GSTIN, even if your yearly turnover is below ₹40 lakh.

The only exception is when you sell 100% GST-exempt goods (very limited categories).In such cases, Amazon may allow seller registration without a GSTIN — but always confirm your product category before assuming exemption.

Documents Required for GST Registration

Keep these documents ready:

Requirement	Example
PAN	Proprietor PAN / Business PAN
ID & Address proof	Aadhaar, Voter ID, Passport
Business address proof	Rent agreement / EB bill / Property tax
Bank account	Cancelled cheque / bank statement
Business registration proof	(If applicable) Incorporation Certificate / Partnership Deed

How to Apply for a GSTIN (Step-by-Step)

1️⃣ Visit the official GST portal → Services → Registration → New Registration

2️⃣ Enter PAN, email & mobile number → complete OTP verification.

3️⃣ You will receive a Temporary Reference Number (TRN) to continue the application.

4️⃣ Fill Part B with business details — business type, location, bank details, etc.

5️⃣ Upload required documents → Submit.

⏳ After verification by the GST department, you will receive your 15-digit GSTIN and GST Registration Certificate (REG-06).

Add GST to Your Amazon Seller Account

After receiving your GSTIN:

Amazon Seller Central → Settings → Account Info → Tax Information → Enter GSTIN

Only after this step can you legally list taxable products on Amazon.

🎯 Why GST Matters for Amazon Sellers

Benefit	Result
Legal compliance	Avoid listing suspension & penalties
Transparent invoicing	Gain customer trust
Input Tax Credit (ITC)	Reduce tax on purchase of stock
Expand business	Sell across states & to B2B buyers

If You Sell GST-Exempt Goods

If you sell only GST-exempt items, Amazon may allow onboarding without GSTIN by submitting a PAN-based exemption declaration.

But if even one of your products is taxable, GST registration becomes compulsory.
