What does Amazon product liability insurance cover?

It usually covers third-party injury or property-damage allegations linked to products sold, subject to wording and disclosure.

Is product liability enough on its own?

Sometimes, but many sellers also need wider sections such as stock, legal expenses or territory extensions.

Why are imported products scrutinised?

Imported goods can create additional underwriting focus on sourcing controls, traceability and compliance.

Can one claim be severe even for small sellers?

Yes. Claim severity is driven by incident seriousness, not just turnover size.

Quick answers for Amazon sellers
