FAQ: FBAMultiCountryInventoryReport (Amazon SP API)

Discover how to effectively utilize the FBAMultiCountryInventoryReport feature in the Amazon SP API for managing inventory across multiple countries.

FBAMultiCountryInventoryReport is a snapshot report available through Amazon's Selling Partner (SP) API, designed to provide inventory data across multiple countries for FBA (Fulfillment by Amazon) listings.

According to Amazon’s documentation, this report is intended for EU marketplaces only. While some North America (NA) integrations may appear to return data, this behavior is inconsistent and not officially supported by Amazon.

Key Points:

Region Support: Supported only in EU.

NA Usage: Data may appear for NA integrations but is not reliable.

Daton Tooltips: Reflect Amazon’s official documentation, stating EU-only to avoid confusion.

Amazon’s Guidance: Advises not to use this report for NA due to potential errors or mismatches.

Client Recommendation: Use this report only for EU to ensure data integrity.

Daton Behavior: Report will still appear for NA integrations, but clients are advised to proceed with caution.
