FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

+-

What is Amazon private label insurance?

Amazon private label insurance is specialized coverage for sellers who own their own brands and source products from manufacturers. It provides enhanced protection for brand owners as manufacturer of record, covering product liability, high-value inventory, supplier quality failures, and product recalls for your branded products.

+-

Why do private label sellers need different insurance than resellers?

Private label sellers are the brand owner and manufacturer of record, making you fully liable for product defects regardless of who manufactured the product. You face higher inventory investment, supplier quality risks, recall liability, and brand reputation exposure that resellers don't face. Enhanced coverage is essential.

+-

How much does Amazon private label insurance cost?

Premiums vary based on product categories, inventory value, supplier locations, annual sales, and claims history. Private label insurance typically costs £600-£2,000+ annually depending on brand portfolio and inventory investment. High-risk products or substantial inventory values cost more. Contact us for a personalized quote.

+-

What does manufacturer of record mean for liability?

As manufacturer of record, you're legally responsible for product safety and quality even if an overseas factory produces the product. You're the first party liable for defects, injuries, and safety failures. This makes comprehensive insurance critical as you cannot simply blame the manufacturer.

+-

Does insurance cover defects from my Chinese manufacturer?

Yes, private label insurance covers product defects from overseas manufacturers including Chinese, Indian, or other international suppliers. Coverage includes customer claims from defective products, quality failures, and safety issues even when the manufacturer is at fault. You're protected as the brand owner.

+-

What if my supplier delivers substandard quality products?

Private label insurance can cover losses from supplier quality failures including defective batches, substandard materials, incorrect specifications, and non-compliant products. This protects your inventory investment when suppliers fail to meet quality standards under your brand.

+-

Does insurance cover product recalls for private label products?

Yes, private label insurance includes product recall coverage protecting against recall costs including product retrieval from customers, disposal, customer notifications, replacement inventory, and brand reputation management. Recalls can be financially devastating without insurance protection.

+-

What if my supplier goes bankrupt with my deposit?

Some private label insurance policies include supplier bankruptcy protection covering paid deposits and in-production inventory when manufacturers fail. This protects your capital investment in inventory orders that never arrive due to supplier insolvency.

+-

How much inventory coverage do private label sellers need?

Coverage should match your total inventory value including stock at FBA warehouses, in-transit shipments, and inventory at supplier facilities. Private label sellers typically carry £50,000-£500,000+ in inventory. Calculate your maximum inventory exposure including seasonal peaks and bulk orders.

+-

Does insurance cover brand reputation damage?

Private label insurance includes brand reputation protection covering costs associated with quality failures, product recalls, and safety issues that damage your brand. This includes crisis management, public relations, and customer retention efforts following brand-damaging incidents.

+-

What if counterfeit products damage my brand reputation?

While insurance doesn't typically cover counterfeit enforcement, some policies cover losses when counterfeit products cause customer confusion and damage your legitimate brand reputation. Discuss counterfeit-related coverage options with your insurer for comprehensive brand protection.

+-

Does insurance cover products still at my supplier's factory?

Yes, private label insurance can cover finished inventory at supplier facilities awaiting shipment. This protects your investment in completed products before they reach Amazon warehouses, including damage, theft, or loss at manufacturer locations.

+-

What if my supplier uses non-compliant materials?

Private label insurance covers claims arising from non-compliant materials used by manufacturers including restricted substances, unsafe components, or materials violating safety standards. As brand owner, you're liable even when the supplier is at fault. Insurance protects you from these supplier failures.

+-

Can I get insurance for multiple private label brands?

Yes, private label insurance covers multiple brands under your ownership. Provide details about all brands, product categories, and inventory values for each brand to ensure comprehensive coverage across your entire brand portfolio.

+-

Does insurance cover product testing and certification costs?

Standard insurance doesn't cover routine testing costs, but some policies cover re-testing and re-certification costs following product recalls or quality failures. Testing and certification are essential risk management practices that can reduce insurance premiums.

+-

What if Amazon suspends my brand for safety complaints?

While insurance doesn't prevent account suspension, it covers the underlying product liability claims that trigger suspensions. Having proper insurance demonstrates responsibility to Amazon and protects your business financially while resolving safety issues and reinstating your account.

+-

Does insurance cover intellectual property disputes?

Standard product liability insurance doesn't cover intellectual property disputes including trademark, patent, or copyright claims. Separate IP insurance is available for brand protection against infringement claims. Ensure your private label products don't infringe existing IP rights.

+-

What documentation should I keep for insurance purposes?

Maintain supplier contracts, product specifications, quality control reports, testing certificates, inspection records, purchase orders, shipping documents, and correspondence with manufacturers. Detailed documentation supports insurance claims and demonstrates due diligence in quality control.

+-

Can I get insurance if I use multiple suppliers?

Yes, private label insurance covers products from multiple suppliers. Provide information about all manufacturers, their locations, and quality control processes. Using multiple suppliers diversifies risk but requires comprehensive coverage across all manufacturing relationships.

+-

Does insurance cover products sold on multiple platforms?

Yes, private label insurance covers your branded products sold across all platforms including Amazon, your own website, eBay, and other marketplaces. Specify all sales channels to ensure comprehensive coverage for your brand wherever products are sold.

+-

What exclusions apply to Amazon private label insurance?

Common exclusions include intentional acts, known defects not corrected, products not meeting agreed specifications, intellectual property disputes, contractual penalties, and claims from products sold before policy inception. Policies also exclude losses from inadequate quality control when you failed to inspect products. Review your policy for specific exclusions.

+-

How can I reduce my private label insurance premium?

Implementing rigorous quality control, conducting pre-shipment inspections, using certified suppliers, obtaining product testing and certifications, maintaining detailed supplier agreements, avoiding high-risk categories, and choosing higher deductibles all help reduce premiums for private label sellers.

+-

Does insurance cover international shipping and customs issues?

Private label insurance covers inventory in-transit internationally including shipping from overseas manufacturers to Amazon warehouses. Some policies cover customs seizures for non-compliant products, though prevention through proper compliance is essential. Discuss transit and customs coverage with your insurer.

+-

How often should I review my private label insurance coverage?

Review your private label insurance annually at renewal, or whenever you launch new brands, add product categories, increase inventory investment, change suppliers, or expand into new markets. Regular reviews ensure coverage limits match your growing brand portfolio and inventory values.
