Amazon Brand Registry Step‑by‑Step Guide 2026 (With Common Mistakes)

Amazon Brand Registry applications get rejected more often over small mismatches than big problems. In this video, I walk through the entire Amazon Brand Registry application on screen, section by section, and point out exactly where brands go wrong. You'll see how to check your trademark against the USPTO website before you apply, what the brand name field actually requires, what your product images need to show, and what happens after you submit — including the attorney verification step most people don't expect. I also cover what to do if you don't have a trademark yet, and what to do if your brand name isn't currently on your product or packaging. Brand registry is different from brand name approval, which is a smaller, separate application. I explain that distinction early in the video so you know which one applies to you. 0:00 Why this application is tricky 0:46 What this video covers 1:00 Brand registry vs. brand name approval 1:43 Logging into Brand Registry 2:22 Checking your trademark on USPTO 3:56 Uploading your logo and trademark office info 4:09 Registration or serial number 4:43 Categories and ASINs 5:18 Website and other ecommerce platforms 5:32 Product image requirements 6:37 Seller, vendor, or neither 7:35 Distributor and licensing questions 8:18 Submitting the basic application 8:30 Additional documents Amazon may request 10:07 What happens after you submit 10:35 The attorney verification step 12:06 Connecting your seller account manually 12:27 If you don't have a trademark yet 13:22 If your brand name isn't on your packaging 13:41 New seller incentives most brands miss Have questions about your own application?
