We're writing to let you know about new Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regulations that may impact your seller
account.
Beginning with the 2011 tax year, new IRS regulations require that U.S. payment processors, including Amazon, file
Form 1099-K for sellers that exceed $20,000 in gross sales and 200 transactions in a calendar year. The regulations
also require that all registered sellers (regardless of account status and sales volume) have taxpayer identification
information on file in order for backup withholding not to apply on gross sales.
As a result of the new regulations, Amazon.com sellers will be required to provide taxpayer identification information
to Amazon. If the required information is not provided to Amazon in 2011, your Amazon selling privileges will be
suspended until you provide the information.
We are committed to making this process simple. In the coming months we will provide instructions on how to enter
the required information directly into your seller account. To help protect the security of your taxpayer identification
information, we will not ask you to disclose it by e-mail or over the phone.
