In today’s ultra-competitive e-commerce world, protecting your brand is not optional—it’s essential. If you sell on Amazon, enrolling in Amazon Brand Registry backed by a federal trademark is one of the smartest moves you can make.
This guide explains how Amazon Brand Registry works, why you need a registered trademark to access it, and how it helps sellers fight counterfeiters and copycats on the platform.
What Is Amazon Brand Registry?
Amazon Brand Registry is a powerful tool for sellers that offers brand protection, enhanced listing control, and access to special features—but only for sellers who own a registered trademark.
To qualify, you must:
- Have a federal trademark registered with the USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office)
- Be the owner of that trademark
- Use the mark on products listed on Amazon
Why a Trademark Is Required for Amazon Brand Registry
Amazon doesn’t allow just anyone to claim a brand. You must prove legal ownership—and that’s where a federal trademark registration comes in.
With a USPTO-registered trademark, you can:
- Enroll your brand in Amazon Brand Registry
- Remove unauthorized resellers
- Report and take down counterfeit products fast
- Control your product detail pages and listings
Without a trademark, you’re vulnerable to listing hijackers, copycats, and counterfeits.
