The FBA Dangerous Goods program allows you to sell FBA-eligible products that have been classified as dangerous goods.

Dangerous goods (also called hazmat) are regulated substances or materials that may pose a risk during storing, handling, or transporting because they contain flammable, pressurized, corrosive, or otherwise harmful substances. “Dangerous goods” also refers to consumer products such as laptops, smartphones, household cleaners, spray paints, and cosmetics.

If you receive an error related to hazmat status or hazmat review when listing an item and wish to review the status of the ASIN, you can do that in Seller Central.
